Adam is a successful actor who is happy enough. New neighbours move in and he instantly falls in lust with the Dad and like with the kids...even if they do all look at him like the local serial killer. He turns into the local stalker when, after his first overtures were bazooka'd out of the neighbourhood, he just wants to see Mr Tall Dark and Lickable, or his spawn at any rate. It takes a year to get any traction, and that is a year without any action! What is this family hiding? Who are they hiding from, and how can Adam get Connell and the kids in his life? Adam pushes and pushes and pushes his way in, his friends tell him Connell isn't interested and he is becoming a stalker in the extreme...and like a typical stalker Adam insists they want him in their lives because he can see a little chink in the armour every so often.  Mmmmhmmmm?I wasn't sure I liked this story. I was getting really frustratingly annoyed that when Connell said leave us alone Adam read that as 'Must try harder". There was humour in the book, and a darkness in what had happened to the family. It was a good read and by the end I was loving the book...but also thinking those kids could do with some boundaries or a parole officer. Nice read. I am becoming a bit of a fan of Taylor Lewis.
