Please leave comments to Becky's 5 sweet pea review at mrsconditreadsbooks.com/index.php/?p=13778I read the original version of Ellis Carrington's Yes, Sir shortly after the first GayRomLit Retreat in New Orleans in 2011, so this setting was fresh on my mind. Ms Carrington has buffed up her story and what was a good short story is now a great short story.Imagine, if you will, having very realistic dreams, night after night, of vivid sexual encounters that leave you breathless, aching, and eventually satisfied for the moment, but not for long. Gray is talked into going out of his normally very controlled behavior to visit a New Orleans voodoo priestess and his friend pays for a love spell for him. Of course, Gray believes none of it until he sees the man of his dreams in his sleep but begins to believe he sees him during the day.When Gray's vacation ends and he heads back home to his usual life he believes he has left his dream man behind. But has he? I loved the ending of this story. Rather than his dream manifesting itself in the flesh right then and there, someone else's dream may be fulfilled, too. Great story, well worth picking up. And if you read it two years ago, definitely get the new one.
