Product Description
The Assignment
Detective Nicholas Valenti, tall, dark and stoic, has been best friends with his partner, Sean O'Brian for six years. The two men have seen each other through divorce, disaster, and danger, and saved each other's asses more times than Valenti can count. Exactly when he started seeing his blond, intense partner in another light, Valenti isn't really sure. He only knows that he wants O'Brian in a way that had nothing to do with friendship and everything to do with possession. It is a desire he will have to hide forever because O'Brian is undeniably straight.
Just as Valenti is coming to grips with his new, unacceptable feelings for his partner their police captain puts them on a new case that could blow Valenti's cover once and for all. He and O'Brian are going undercover at the country's largest and most infamous gay resort to bust a notorious drug lord and stop the shipments of poison cocaine that are flooding the gay bars all over the city.
Now Valenti will have to make a choice between friendship and desire. He and O'Brian will play the roles of gay men that will push the limits of their relationship to the breaking point. Will their time at the RamJack forge a new bond between them or destroy their partnership forever?
I'll Be Hot for Christmas, a Loose Id Stocking Stuffer featuring Valenti and O'Brian, heroes from The Assignment
It's a year after their assignment at the RamJack where they first confessed their feelings for each other. Valenti and O'Brian have been sharing an exclusive and white-hot relationship when Valenti suddenly pulls away. Understandably upset, O'Brian is determined to find out why his partner/lover is giving him the cold shoulder on Christmas, even if it means handcuffing Valenti to the bed to get the truth out of him!
Publisher's Note: The Assignment and I'll Be Hot for Christmas are male-male love stories and contains homoerotic sex acts that may be offensive to some readers.

Format:Paperback
Nicholas Valenti and Sean O'Brien are partners in the local Police Department and have been inseperable since meeting at the academy. Dubbed the Mick and the Spic - one ethnic group away from a really good joke, their close physical and emotional bonds have elicited homophobic debates and remarks form their squad despite the fact they are relentlessly heterosexual.
However, since Sean was attacked six months previously, Nick has been having increasing feelings about Sean that make him more than a little uncomfortable and when the opportunity is presented to them to go undercover at a notorious gay resort because of their bond, the two really begin to discover how close that bond really is.
I loved this book. It doesn't pretend to be what it's not but the characters are well-written and avoid being stereo-typical - I actually liked both of them. It's unashamedly romantic and although the sub-plot is barely there and does at times seem a little contrived, it's still a lovely and light-hearted read. A keeper.

Format:Paperback
This book offers pure escapism. It is perfect if your looking for something very light and fluffy with no need for real commitment to either the characters or the story itself. I read it between a series of other fairly heavy books and it took me no more then a couple of hours to finish, perfect for what I was looking for.

I loved this book. I liked the characters and I liked the storyline, despite the fact that the storyline itself was completely unbelievable. I thought the sex scenes were well written and not dead like many books of this genre can be, and I liked the way the characters reacted with each other too. Worth a read.

As wonderful as any short story could be, no, there isn't much of a plot, but still the character interaction flows well.
And the love scenes really draw you in.

The characters in this story are great, the plot is passing fair and the erotic elements are believable and not at all over-worked. Read more
