I read this sequel to "Talker" immediately after I had finished the first book, and it was such a satisfying closure to the series.  Truly moving and so well-written.  I highly recommend both of these beautiful books and Ms. Lane's work, in general (I'm definitely a fan!).SPOILERS FOLLOW:Taking up a few months after the end of "Talker," Brian and Talker are now together, and Talker is finally going to therapy to deal with the pain of the "Worst. Date. Ever." -- the rape.  In book one, Brian beats up Talker's rapist to protect Talker, who is in a very fragile emotional state.  Time for the rapist to get his revenge, and Talker must step up to the plate to protect Brian, for a change.The book focuses in on therapy from Talker's perspective, and the aftermath of the revenge attack which lands Brian seriously injured and in the hospital.  It's poignant, heart-wrenching, and very emotionally satisfying.  The end, a HEA, is so sweet - a wonderful coda to all the pain and upheaval in the boys' lives.Marvelous series, a must-read, in my opinion and a series I will be rereading, no doubt!Sarah AlexanderAuthor of "From the Depths"
