I thought this book was supposed to give a better idea of the HEA these two were supposed to get after Country Mouse. But I don't think that's what happened here.This book picks up right after the end of Country Mouse and the narrative takes place over the next six weeks. This is great because we get to see how the couple interact as they get to know each other better and live together everyday.There are many issues they have to work on: Malcolm's really long work days, Owen's entry level job and just the differences in their personalities and cultures. Malcolm has a lot of doubts that he can give Owen the attention and love he deserves and Owen must practice a lot of patience with him.Unfortunately at the end of the six weeks all these issues are still there. But the guys have reached a commitment of how to work through them. So I guess in that sense maybe the guys have a chance to reach their HEA as they make a commitment to always work on their relationship which is how it works in real life anyway.An epilogue would have worked for me here as I just wanted to know what happens in Malcolm's job.
