Descripción editorial
Kenny Long is living a new life. Blinded in an accident, he has taken control of his unexpected reality the best way he can, and it’s working out better than he hoped.
Of course Larry Boots doesn’t know any of that. All he sees is a beautiful man sitting on a park bench.
Larry has a few problems of his own: his mother. His job. The lack of romance in his life.
His job. In the course of that job, Larry strikes up a friendship with Kenny. The next thing he knows, he’s so head-over-heels in love, even his mother doesn’t seem so bad. Of course his career is still a problem, but he’s working on that. Hopefully he’ll have the problem resolved before the man he’s being paid to murder succeeds in murdering him first.
And before the man he loves finds out he’s a cold-blooded killer.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In this fun but disjointed romantic thriller, a hitman's routine is disrupted by a new relationship, which inspires him to question his murderous motivations. Larry Boots specializes in dealing out justice as a last resort, only taking cases where he believes the target deserves to die. It's an ugly business, but he considers it a public service: "No one else would do it, so it had to be me." On a job-related stakeout, he meets Kenny, whose blindness proves no obstacle to mutual attraction followed by passionate sex and an intense emotional connection. When Larry's next assignment threatens their chance at lasting love, he'll have to make a difficult choice. Inman (A Party to Murder) imbues Larry with an engagingly wry, snarky voice, though the story's shifts among tongue-in-cheek humor, syrup-sweet romance, sizzling sex, and gritty violence leads to tonal whiplash. Those looking for a satisfying love story with both an erotic component and an adrenaline rush won't be disappointed.
