It’s love at first sight for John, or passion, as Chris calls it, but he’s shocked to learn the young man, Chris, is blind and bases his own assessment of John on what he hears.


When he stops in to a café to get a cup of tea one day, he startles when he bumps into a gorgeous young man, with long dark curls, and a long, slender body. But John is gay and his friends don’t know that and neither do his customers, his rugby teammates, or those he meets on the street. He is a softie on the inside and has a heart of gold and is the big brother all his younger sisters are fortunate to have. John is a big guy: strong, muscular, tall, weighty, and not so good-looking, in his opinion. (And the good news is there’s going to be more on these men in the near future in the sequel, Coffee.) The MCs were so very real to me that I wanted to keep reading long after the last page. But on the contrary, I found hope in this story, along with courage, strength, and balance. What an interesting story! I wasn’t sure I was going to read this at first because of some of my friends’ reviews and because we’ve been having some major issues around depression and anxiety in my family this year.
