Noel Snow is a jewel thief. Robert Cuffe is an FBI agent who's job was to catch him. They have played cat and mouse for years not really knowing who's the cat and who's the mouse.Fast forward 10 years into the present. Noel Snow has bought a farm where he grows horses and writes books. He has stopped stealing long ago knowing his good fortune won't last forever so what is Cuffe doing at his doorstep at christmas eve?Josh Lanyon has incredible talent for creating characters everyone wants to meet. He is considered GLBT author but he goes beyond that. Falling in love is universal language that everybody understands and he really knows how to play with your heart strings. I like happy endings. Sure there is a place for books and movies that end with angst but I am looking an entertainment to forget the real life, to believe in dreams and happy endings even just for a moment. And here Josh Lanyon delivers. Some of his stories are so funny I have tears running down my face when I read them, other times those tears are caused by that same angst. Sometimes he really likes to put his characters through hoops and loops but, being the hopeless romantic that I suspect he is, he always has a happy ever after for them and  I finish all his stories with a happy sigh. And this is what I am looking for when I pick up a book.
