Date: 06 20, 2014
Mike Harper and Noah Lodge have been friends since forever.  They lived in the same neighborhood even now after Mike’s parents died a year apart.  Mike has a kid sister, two years younger, Patricia.  She is an illustrator for books.  She owns and lives in the old home they grew up in with Mike.Mike is a military man who is now serving in Afghanistan.  He has asked Noah to keep an eye on his kid sister.  It is not a hardship for Noah since he always did it with Mike growing up anyways.  Plus he lives across the street and three house down and he is a cop.  The thing was all Mike’s friends knew hands off when it came to ”Pattycakes.”  So, Mike knew his place too.Little did Mike or anyone know Patty (Pattycake as Mike calls her) had a crush on him and Mike had a crush on her.  Since Mike could keep an eye out but discreetly he would drop by unannounced which by Patty’s standards was not discreet.  Patty felt like it was over kill because just when she thought she could move on he popped on over.The book opens with him popping over with lights flashing due to a prowler, when it’s not his patrol area she is scared because she this it could be something happened to Noah.  When she finds out it wasn’t she is pissed.  He checks, he gets in her space enough to arouse her, and comes back for a sleep over…I enjoyed the story line the mad secret crush.  The frustration and the sexual frustration that has been created over the years by them not confronting the elephant in the room is funny.  Feelings are elated, dashed, crushed, and soothed all in one short story.I give this 5 stars.  I got this book on Amazon free.
