Luke Rossovich has a surprise for his partner Jesse McAllister. They celebrated with their families, now he just wants to celebrate just with his lover. He's booked a night at one of the fanciest hotels in Paris to celebrate their love and Jesse's win of the French Open.

Keira Andrews paints a sexy, loving and erotic picture of the two men in this story. She sets up their love story in the prior book Love Match. They met on the tennis courts when the younger man, Jesse, was already out of the closet. Luke wasn't and that made it a difficult beginning for the two. Now they're in a committed relationship, their parents and the other important people in their lives accept them as a couple.

In this tale Ms. Andrews does a great job showing the two men very much in love. The camaraderie, dialogue and eroticism is great. Luke is shown as a man nervous as any other when he wants to take their relationship to another level. He's wooing his lover even after years together as any good couple would.

Ms. Andrews makes the book even better by adding details that are fun to know as a prelude to the guys time together. It's not just about sex, it's about where they're at as people in their respective lives and important relationships. There are a few little tidbits about Luke's mother and her boyfriend, the trainer's expectations, Luke's new job as a sports commentator. To me the information helps build the authenticity of a real relationship between the two. This was a good read.

Overall rating:
