A Lion in Tails by Andrew Grey was a super sweet holiday novella. I'm sure you're wondering how I can say sweet when my favorite quote is far from sweet, but I can assure you the scene around that quote was a favorite of mine. Larry Kincaid is now raising his nephew after Larry's sister has died. He's doing a pretty good job of it but it isn't easy. Larry does seem a little awkward to me around Angus, his cute young nephew, but he is really trying to step in as a parent. Now it is the holidays and they are both struggling with the changes. For Larry he's normally in full holiday swing getting ready for his large annual party, which is quite the formal affair. And poor Angus, no longer having his home, mom or any of his old traditions at the holidays. As they go to rent tuxes for the party, Larry meets Joshua. Angus takes an instant liking to Joshua who clearly has a way with kids. Eventually, Joshua is invited to Larry's party and after the party ends sparks fly. The two of them are super hot and it turns into a quite the night. Unfortunately there are some hurt feelings from some unintentional actions. The story, while short, takes us through the initial stages of Larry and Joshua's relationship. I love that Joshua compares Larry to a Lion and to me Joshua is the lion tamer. They make a really cute couple and the novella ends with a really satisfying HFN.
