About this ebook
Daren Boothe's most significant secret centers on an unlikely object: a xylophone. That secret led him to develop his professional alter-ego, a sensual, androgynous dancer. When Dare begins his second (and considerably more wholesome) job playing clarinet in a polka band, he meets a young man who takes his grandmother out dancing. But Dare knows the man has his own secret.
Jonah Day immediately recognizes the clarinetist. Three years earlier they crossed paths in a therapist's office, but they both abandoned that route to mental health. Neither was ready then to open up about the psychological traumas that haunted them.
In an attempt to heal their wounds, Dare and Jonah turn to each other. Understanding and empathy come instantly, accompanied by ambivalence about their growing attraction. But the repercussions of victimization are many. Soon, the very experiences Dare and Jonah share threaten to drive them apart.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5One of the things that I love about this book is, that while it deals with MC's that have both been victims of abusers in the past, it's not completely overrun by angst. Don't get me wrong, nothing is just swept under the carpet and ignored, but instead it's dealt with in a more positive and 'working through it' kinda way.
The building of the relationship between Daren and Jonah is beautifully written. The support they give one another as they finally open up about what happened in the past is very well written, without sensationalising anything. And the intimacy between them was also quite realistic in terms of coping with their pasts.
All in all a fantastic book that deals with 2 damaged MC's in a very positive and thoughtful way. Thank you K.Z. Snow!
