Book Blurb

When Troy Hastings' plans for the vacation of his dreams literally goes up in smoke, he's left homeless, alone, and wearing only a hospital gown. Jason Cooper, the firefighter who rescues him, can only think of what he’d like to do to Troy. Troy's lost everything and Jason wants to help him get his life back. With each passing day, Jason wants that life to include him. But he only has seven days until Troy's friends return from the trip to make Troy see that Jason is the man he's been looking for all along.

Jason spends that time giving Troy the best vacation he's ever had, and in the process, wooing the man who has nothing to lose and everything to gain. Troy's having the time of his life, enjoying stepping out of his comfort zone, trying new things: like a little bondage, the hottest sex he’s ever had, and parasailing, and he’s game for more.

When the week is up, Troy will find himself a new apartment…unless Jason can convince him to stay.

 

Book Review

If I've said it once, I've said it a hundred times: I am crazy about firefighters! A firefighter who saves me? Oh Mommy, he could get the firstborn kid. *smirk* I am suitably crazy over Lynn Lorenz's stories so I knew in advance that I would love this one. The fact that it describes my idea of the perfect vacation didn't hurt, either.

Troy is doing the typical "I can make him love me if we just spend enough time together" single guy dance. In my book, if you have to "make" someone love you then it isn't real. He's been lusting after this idiot, Douglas, for a year. Troy has gone to great lengths to try to make himself attractive to this jerk, even though Troy's best friend describes Troy as smart, witty, and a gorgeous guy with a heart of gold. But, now Troy has his chance. He's spending a week on a cruise with Douglas and other friends and Troy just knows that when the seven days are up, Douglas will be his. When Troy's apartment goes up in flames due to his neighbor smoking while sleeping, Troy is forced out the bathroom window to balance precariously three stories up on a tiny ledge. Yikes!

Lucky for Troy, Jason is the gorgeous firefighter who saves him and brings him down on the ladder. Troy realizes at the hospital that he has no one to call to come pick him up. He has no cell phone, no wallet, no money, no home. Troy is shocked when Jason appears at the hospital to check on him and even more surprised when Jason offers to let Troy stay with him until he can get things sorted out. Jason is a little surprised that he made the offer, too, but something about Troy rouses protective and possessive feelings that Jason has never had. It doesn't take these two gorgeous men long before they've fallen into bed and Jason is introducing Troy to a little bondage play. These guys are very intense and the sex is incredible. Jason is determined to give Troy a vacation he won't ever forget, and in the process hopes that Troy won't want to leave when his friends come back.

The vacation starts with Jason getting Troy into much better-looking clothes than Dockers and button-downs. Troy is only five years older so why dress like an old man? Next it's up to the lake for a day of Jet Skis and parasailing, stuff Troy's never done before, and they have a blast. Jason takes Troy deep-sea fishing and it's some of the most fun Troy has ever had. Jason doesn't want to bring up looking for a new apartment and Troy doesn't either, but both believe the other wants them to, and so begin the miscommunications. Neither one of them wants to speak up about their feelings for fear if being hurt. Silly men. HA!

If you enjoy a lighthearted romance with not a lot of drama but an incredible amount of sex, then this might be the story for you. It's fun, sweet, and sexy with a good ending. Thank you, Lynn!
