I am very liberal and I find it ironic that I read this story on the day that Don't Ask Don't Tell was officially repealed and put into action. I had forgotten that the story's plotline was based on Don't Ask Don't tell. I think that if you are a homosexual male that this story would be great. I did like how Adam had to look at himself differently and see himself through Tony's eyes as a worthy lover.  I have never read any books in this genre and although the explicit scenes were uncomfortable, I knew what I was reading when I started.  I love that Tony's Navy Seal friends were supportive of his sexuality.  From the people who I know who are in the military, most don't mind the sexuality of their co-workers.  What matters most to the people I know is that anyone who is willing to fight for out country should be able to without risk of losing their job because of who they love.  Today on Facebook, many of my straight military friends were cheering for the repeal of DADT.  The story was well written and I was happy to see that Adam came around to the idea of love at first sight.As I said the love scenes were uncomfortable for me, I do see the value of seeing things from other people's perspective.  The more we are exposed to other perspectives, the more understanding we will have in this world.
