A very sweet romance. ( )
  Bramptonite | Feb 3, 2013 |
City boy stock broker meets a younger country boy, garage mechanic when his car breaks down in Alabama. This story brought to mind the movie "Doc Hollywood" when Michael J. Fox had his car break down in the rural south. The yearning for a life with meaning, friends and a companion are the same as in the movie.

Country boy, Beau, knows immediately that he wants to know the "beautiful" Mason much better. They get off to a rough start, but Beau is not afraid to go after what he wants and they quickly hook up. Beau has to work hard to discover the demons that keep Mason from opening up at first, but his love for man wins out in the end. Great story that is hard to put down. Highly recommend and I'll want to read more from this author. ( )

Beau is the classical country boy, and he likes so. He has not dreams to go away, he wants to buy the garage where he is working now, and the big house soon out the town, and build a big loving family like the one he has. If he wanted, he had the chance to go to college, to leave the small town where he was born, but he had a taste of the big city and he didn't find anything there that for him compares to the life he just has. It's quite obvious that Beau has never had something bad happen to him, but well, why we have to make him feel guilty? Lucky him that he can still face the world with so much faith in good things.

Mason is a city boy who is stuck in Dixon, Alabama, since his car decided that it was not made for driving in a country road. The diagnosis is more than a week only to wait for the necessary parts, and then, maybe... It is not that Mason is eager to arrive to destination, witnessing to the five marriage of his mother is not first on his list, but what can he do in Dixon? there is no wireless internet, no special restaurants... but well, there is Beau and his charming question, 'Want company?' when he said that he was going to bed...

Beau is like an hurricane, he is always happy and Mason feels guilty everytime he says something nasty that for a moment shut down the light in those eyes: how can you kick a puppy?. And so Mason is starting more and more to avoid to say nasty things, and always agree to every crazy idea Beau brings on... even maybe accept to live in small town Alabama!

It's quite a fairy land the one described in this book, I don't believe that in deep Alabama exists a place like Dixon, where you can be openly gay, accepted by family and folks, you have the chance to have enough experience to know what you like, and you can think to marry another man and adopt children... but it would be nice if it was real. In that small town, Beau can dream, and he can be sure that his dreams will come true sooner or later; he can fall in love in a week, and his love can be mutual. In fairy land, Mason has enough money to not worry to give up to his ordinary city life and move on in a place where even an internet connection is a problem. But well, this is a romance, and finally a romance where everything goes right, where you know that your two heroes will fall in love, and that nothing will intervene between them; and so when the book is leading toward a final very similar to 'An Affair to Remember' (the movie), you will know that, in a way or another, there will be an happily ever after.
