Somewhat different from Cardeno's modus operandus in that he takes us into the world of entertainment and teases us, and his two main characters, with great temptation and frustration--all in a nearly good natured way that disarms you and keeps you smiling even when danger lurks.While most of us will wonder who inspired the character of Jeremy Jameson, "the most popular rock star in the world," all of us will immediately fall in love with confidant and protector, and eventually his boon companion and lover, Reg Moore, one of the most down to earth and loving gay real-man characters you will ever meet.While this book has some interesting plot twists and some danger in being a bit too obvious at times, it also manages to explain in very clear details how a presumably straight but surprisingly sheltered public figure could find love with the first man he encounters who openly gay and doesn't seem to want to bed him (immediately) is an author's device of which Cardeno is a master.  I read this one on a brief vacation, most of it on a ferry that takes more than an hour in each direction, and I was rolling along with the tide, smiling, all the way.
