Fiction. Literature. HTML: In this fast, fun and dead-sexy male/male new-adult caper from multi-award-winning author Josh Lanyon, twentysomething Jefferson Blythe gets lost, gets found, falls in love and comes out...all in the span of one wild summer After his first relationship goes disastrously awry, Jeff Blythe uses his savings to tour Europe�??the old-fashioned way. Armed with his grandfather's1960 copy of Esquire's Europe in Style, Jeff sets off looking for adventure but finds much, much more than he bargained for... In London, dodging questions from shady criminals about a mysterious package he most certainly does not have is simple. Losing the gunmen who are convinced he's someone else is not. And when George, an old friend, offers him help�??and a place to stay, and perhaps something more�??things become complicated. Is George really who he seems? And is Jeff finally ready to act on his attraction? From Paris to Rome and back again, Jeff and George fall for each other, hard, while quite literally running for their lives. But trusting George at his word may leave Jeff vulnerable�??in more ways than one. 65,00… (more)

It’s a pleasant read and different in tone from this author’s usual writings.
