When Michael accepts a company assignment overseas, he doesn't count on being dumped by his boyfriend on the way to the airport. The breakup is a bad omen--Michael's time in Europe would be one long misery of loneliness and corporate backbiting if it weren't for his friendship with his coworker, Stephan. When he finds out Stephan wants more than friendship, Michael is torn. Even if he chooses to risk his one bright relationship in Europe for a chance at love, when this project is over, isn't his only choice to say goodbye? No library descriptions found. |

Michael is a nice guy, more or less your average gay guy; he is averagely handsome, averagely ambitious, averagely passionate… but these entire average characteristic make him a rare treasure in the relationship department. When to Michael is offered a temporary task abroad, Devon, his boyfriend, doesn’t realize what he will loose if he doesn’t fight for him, and the immediate fear of being alone pushes him to dump Michael. True, he will change soon idea, but it will be too late.
As soon as Michael arrives in Holland he meets Stephan, a colleague. A friendly guy who wants to welcome a stranger, Stephan soon understands what a catch Michael is, and he is quick to grab the prize. Now it’s true I’m joking, Stephan is indeed a nice guy, and he is really good to Michael, especially to help him move over the delusion with Devon, his former boyfriend. It’s also true that Stephan gives Michael little space to change idea, and they are soon involved in a relationship that feels important from day one.
As I said this is a shared novel between the romance and the real life; his trouble with a homophobic boss and his love for his job take a good share of the description, and while Michael is attentive with Stephan, he is also quietly trying to not jeopardize his career. Michael proves to be the scrupulous man he appears on the job also in his private life and like he carefully plans his projects, so he is able to manage this budding love relationship, in a way that will allow it to grow quickly and steadily in the right direction.
