Keep in mind that the book is obviously very angsty and I could have used a little dial down on that, but it is probably appropriate for the plot. I was in tears at many points of this story, yelling at the characters at other points, but always cheering for them to get together. But the other part of me, obviously is not a gay male, so I can not relate at how devastating it must be to have to push down such a large part of your personality and self for the sake of your family and children. Part of me was just irritated at both of them, for betraying their love for each other.
In this case we are talking about two men who are closeted and married, so you can fill in the blanks about cheating. I spoke about cheating in another review and how recently it seems like all of the books I have read include it. We see their ups and downs, when they make mistakes, learn from them, and when they do not learn from them. That alone deserves a 4.īasically it is a story about two married, closeted men over a period of 7 years. I finally decided that it was a 4 based on the fact that I put off talking to husband, doing laundry, cleaning the house, having company over, eating, and crying like a baby while reading it.
Danielle Steel () is one of the best-selling authors ever. I think fans of science fiction with an emphasis on emotion and romance will enjoy this story.Torn between a 3 and a 4. Clean Hands looks at what happens when a legal companys digital files end up in the. On the whole, I was left with a good feeling when I finished, I was happy for Stane and Steven, two noble yet caring men, prepared to put their people first, when they got something good for themselves. You don’t get to know as much about Steven since this is all from Stane’s point of view, but you know he’s an honourable man willing to sacrifice himself for peace, and who has been keeping his sexuality a secret. However, once the sacrifice stopped he wanted to protect Steven and would never force him to do anything he was uncomfortable with. I liked Stane’s character as he finds himself drawn to Steven, but is prepared to follow-through on the sacrifice for the good of his people.
I was thrilled to receive a B+ for my first published story. As part of my interview Brief Encounters very kindly reviewed Sacrifice, in Making Contact, published by Dreamspinner.
