Calendar Boys- A Joyfully Recommended Title,
This review is from: Calendar Boys, Vol. IV (October-December) (Paperback)
Harvey Kramer works as a mechanic in his hometown after being injured and released from the army. It is the first Veteran's Day and a surprise visitor shows up at his home. Zach Jones shows up at Harvey's house ten years after they last saw one another on that tragic day that changed Harvey's life.
Over Here is an incredible story of love and heroes. Harvey and Zach are very well-penned characters and I felt like I really got to know them. Their story of being separated and reunited is heartwarming. This is a story fellow M/M readers should not miss out on, you will love it and the characters. Raine Argenti agent Darren Summers is irritated to be stuck dressed in drag at a Halloween party, but it's the only way to get close to his target. He knows he has to kill werewolf Aden Richter, and he can put up with a bit of discomfort in order to get the job done. When Darren gets close to the target and finds Aden dangerously attractive, he wonders if he's going to be able to complete his mission. Aden Richter isn't keen on fancy parties, but he's determined to track down the werewolf who's been using black magic and framing him for murder. An Argenti agent is a distraction he doesn't need, especially when the woman turns out to be a sexy man. Can Aden convince Darren to help him track down the killer before he strikes again? Trick of Silver is a hot tale of werewolves, magic, and deception. I liked tough, resourceful Darren, who rolled with the punches as his carefully constructed plan collapsed around him. Bossy, arrogant Aden was a bit harder to get a handle on, but in the end I was rooting for him too. I had to suspend disbelief when Darren and Aden made time for sex during what should have been a pretty tense time due to their circumstances. I also thought Darren should have figured things out a bit sooner than he did regarding the villains. Even so, Trick of Silver has werewolves, action, and lots of heat, making it an entertaining read. Cassie They have been lovers for almost a full year, managing to keep their love for each other a secret from family, friends and most importantly the world. Michael Pappas is a well liked college professor who chooses to keep his sexual preferences hidden from his family. His lover is Tre Griffin, a star football player in Miami. Both men are very aware that Tre's career in professional football would be over forever if it got out that he is gay. Tre and Michael visit each other in secret as often as possible. They know that someday they can love each other openly but for now this is how it must be for Tre's sake. The holidays are difficult without each other but both men are committed to making their relationship last and know that one day in the future they will spend Christmas together no matter what anyone else thinks. December: First and Always is solid gold! This story picks up almost a year after the two main characters met and fell in love. There is a wealth of emotion, poignancy and a few surprises to make December: First and Always total entertainment. Multi-talented author Jamie Craig gives readers a fast paced, dialogue packed treat to enjoy. It's a no brainer for me to Joyfully Recommend December: First and Always.

Trick Of Silver (Calendar Boys - October) by Jamie Craig
I have never been attracted to the idea of men in dress... I like my men fully men! But I can admit without problem that sometime a man in dress looks better than a woman (have you ever seen Priscilla the Queen of the Desert? Guy Pierce in dress? if yes, you know what I mean). So this story begins with Darren, a paranormal special agent, a werewolf hunter, who has the mission to kill Aden, an alpha male framed with a string of recent kills. I actually haven't understood for sure why Darren should be dress as a woman on the Halloween party he goes to find Aden, since the purpose to lure Aden better as woman rather than as a man is not the reason; au countraire, Aden seems a lot more interested in Darren when he finds that he is a man, the hunt is more exciting in that way. Anyway, Darren thinks at Aden as the enemy, an enemy to destroy, but he can't help to be attracted by the man. Darren is not a werewolf, but when he is near Aden, he is like a bitch in heat. Darren is not an helpless man, he can be lethal, but he is more than willing to give up the control to Aden. Is not a "sweet love" feeling, is hundred per cent lust: Darren forgets his mission and his beliefs for a chance to be on the same bed, or wherever else, with Aden. Aden likes to play. He has a target in mind, but he has no problem to reach the target and at the same time play with Darren. And if something else comes out, even better, he can always do with another member in his pack. Again is not a question of love, love is never mention in the book, for real, not even one time in all the almost 90 pages! Trick of Silver is a paranormal Halloween romp, full of sex, flesh and blood... enjoy your plate! Over Here (Calendar Boys - November) by Jamie Craig During the WWII, Harvey and Zach were all for each other: fellow soldiers, friends, lovers. But then Harvey was badly injured and sent home and instead Zach had to spend another 20 months fighting and killing. Knowing that the man he loved was alive somewhere was enough for Zach to go on, but when nor a letter or a message arrived from Harvey, Zach though that his friend had moved on with his life, a life in which loving Zach was not allowed. Ten years after, during the first official Veterans Day, Zach decides that he is tired to try to forget the only man he loves and goes to find Harvey to at least have his official goodbye. What he finds his a man who has never moved on, a man who waits for every day to pass without a reason. Harvey is not married, he has not a family, he is alone. When Harvey went in war 12 years before, he knew that he preferred men, but in his little town he never had any chance to find his love. He found him in Zach, and when he was sent back at home, he thought that it was his fate, and that Zach should remain only an happy memory. Harvey thinks it's not possible for two men to openly love and live together, and what they had in the cold night during the war is the only thing they could have. Zach is not of the same idea, he lives in a city and not in a small town like Harvey, and he knows that, if they don't flaunt too much their real relationship, they can have an happy life together. I like this story, it's really sweet and tender. There is the sad memory of the war, but it's a distant thing and weights more the love between Harvey and Zach rather than the violence and the death. And I like both characters, the introvert Harvey, always weighting the things, always cautious, but ready to open to love; and I like Zach, dominant but gentle, not impulsive, but sure of what he wants and strong enough to reach for it. The story is not long, less than 70 pages, but it's right and complete in its shortness.
