![]() ![]() Each time I came across it I actually salivated. There is but one warning I must give while indulging in this simple but lovely story of our unlikely protagonists, and that is it must not be read while you are on a diet! There are far too many references to lemon tart. ![]() This book was a veritable feast of hilarity. As everybody who has already reviewed it can no doubt attest, the laughs came thick and fast during the reading. NR Walker has an amazing talent, to write wit is far more difficult than to deliver it in person, but the book is full of it and it just flows with such ease and naturalness. Henry just opens his mouth and hilarity pops out and has Reed smiling all the way to the treadmill. ![]() And it doesn’t hurt that Henry’s non-filter makes the man laugh with his unintended wit and self-deprecation. The fact the man is gay, and that they share an interest - besides that of making Henry’s pudgy figure svelte and fit - in food, a particular obsession that got Henry into trouble in the first place, becomes the starting point for their connection. Right? But a bonus that might turn in to something much more fulfilling. ![]() The fact that his trainer, Reed, is veritable eye-candy is just a bonus. Rudely awoken from that most human of states – contented complacency – by the harsh words of his ex-lover Graham, our beloved hero, Henry rashly closes one door by joining a gym and opens another on his road to rediscovering himself. ![]()
