I have an acute fondness..... b#gger that.....  I have a wildly inappropriate love for characters who are honest and courageous about the decisions they make.  Which these two ,especially Jake, have in spades.  I want to know where I can get one (straight of course) and I want to know how I foster this courage in my own life.  Patricia Logan has written two men who I will be falling asleep with for many many more rereads.Now whilst I fell head over heels in love with Jake it was Cade who actually resounded with me, when he tells Jake that no on else got him or even cared enough to look, (and I am paraphrasing this big time.) I just melted and then tried to see if Patricia had a listening device in my head.I enjoyed the other characters and hope to see more from some of them.  The handling of coming out especially to Thad was okay, I knew the girls would take it ok and I knew Thad would be fine with it once he came around.  I was really glad that Cade understood how much Jake had travelled and gave him the space to come out at his own pace or as much as circumstances would allow..I thought the tension Patricia created with the gay hate crimes plot was well done in that the tension built and built throughout the story with a climactic ending nicely resolved.  It was believable, and built beautifully so much so that I didn't want to leave them in case something happened when I wasn't there, (silly I know but...)I was surprised at the diverse ratings for this book.  I fell in love with Jake and Cade from the start.  I loved Patricia's set up for the story, their backgrounds being very well developed and easily introduced so we the reader didnt feel in the dark or in any way like we had to get blood from a stone.  Yes the names were a bit on the sweet side but I actually liked it and loved how the two main characters sense of humor just meshed and how they laughed and took the "Mickey"out of each other.All in all I loved it.  Excuse me whilst I cuddle with two more of my favorite men.  Get the book read the book but know they are mine.....
