Sinopsis: Having come out late in life, forty-three-year-old Luke Jordan is at a
loss about how to conduct himself as a gay man. As a construction
manager, he’s not interested in being out at work, but he’d like to find
a boyfriend or at least some gay friends. Two years after his wife got
all their friends in the divorce, he’s no closer to the life he wants.
Zach, Luke’s adult son, takes charge and signs him up for the Rainbow Blues, a social group for gay blue-collar workers. At an event, he not only finds friends but meets Jimmy Alexander, part-time stage actor and full-time high school biology teacher. Jimmy loves the stage but wishes potential boyfriends weren’t so jealous of the time he devotes to it. When he meets Luke and finds him accepting of his many facets, he thinks it’s a dream come true.
Their relationship quickly moves into serious territory, but their connection is tested to its breaking point by the offer of a juicy movie role that takes Jimmy to the opposite coast and into the path of a very sexy costar.

Últimamente ando necesitada de finales felices en mis lecturas (¿será la época?) y este libro era una apuesta segura, porque si hay algo que le gusta a KC Burn es darles un final feliz a sus chicos.
Me ha encantado este libro. Sus personajes son muy realistas y tienen los pies en la tierra, y el desarrollo de la historia es totalmente natural. Aunque no tiene un papel principal, he adorado a Zach y lo fácil que ha aceptado la nueva vida de su padre.
¿Y Jimmy y Luke? En cuanto sus ojos se encuentran, se puede ver cómo saltan las chispas.
Por todo esto, por Luke, que sale del armario a los 40 años, por su hijo, que lo inscribe en un grupo llamado Rainbow Blues para que conozca gente (porque necesita amigos, no necesariamente una pareja), por Jimmy que tiene la oportunidad de cumplir su sueño de juventud y por todo lo que ocurre en estas páginas, KC Burn:
Espero que la autora se anime y nos cuente algún día la historia de Ryan.
