Leigh gets men on all kinds of levels, the kind of men like the BDB who aren't afraid to be MEN, to express themselves in ways that make women uncomfortable. There are some great scenes between Slade and his friends Jazz and Zack, guys he grew up with in foster care. Overall I really liked this one. Available in e-book and print (Samhain Publishing).
Leigh loves the "coming of age/long lost love" story line, and I admit it's one of my favorites also. Some would say Slade is an arrogant SOB, but he came across as a guy who knew early on what he wanted and for decency's sake, waited until she was of age before he went after her. The emotional stakes are high in this book, too, and it was fun to see a strong guy fall really hard.
