BOOK BLURB:
It’s another Thanksgiving for lovers Derek and Troy. Another holiday to pretend they are merely platonic roommates in the chaos of Derek’s family celebration. When Derek snaps after one too many confrontations and admits he’s gay, his father disowns him on the spot. It’s going to be a quiet Thanksgiving…or is it?

BOOK REVIEW:
This is a delightful story. The characters are believable and well-drawn. The topics of homophobic hatred and eventual forgiveness are handled well. Moments of humor, such as the running joke about grandpa’s big gut, were great fun.

Of especial delight was the loving and mutually supportive relationship that Troy and Derek enjoy. It was a change to read a story about an already established couple.
