Then Hans’s older brother returns home, and Jonathon begins to truly awaken.

Some place where he could make new memories and start smiling again. One thing Jonathon is not looking for is a new lover but as the plot goes on, and “with more luck than he figured one person deserved,” he finds himself falling in love again and he may return home with more than his suitcases… or maybe not. Will Fabian become a vacation fling or will Jonathon let go of the past and look for a future with a new partner?
Andrew Grey has a style of writing that opens the mind and allows you to explore beyond gender, drawing you into the hearts and feeling of the lovers and the people around them. What stand out are the characters’ personalities and the plot itself–the tears and laughter found between the pages that leave you biting your nails and worried about the ending.
Would I recommend this book? You bet! And for any reader that wants to try a M/M story for the first time I would highly recommend reading this book. Some authors have a technique of writing that pulls at the heartstrings and can spin such an amazing tale that you cannot help but love their books and Mr. Grey worked his magical writing talent once more on Accompanied by a Waltz.
