When Nicky Hauser walks in on his restaurant-owner boyfriend having sex with a waiter, Nicky loses his lover, his job, and his home all in one night. Although he’s nearly thirty, he’s never settled on a true career, and he has nothing to show for his years with Tom. Depressed and unable to find work, Nicky ends up couch-surfing with friends until he lands a house-sitting gig for a wealthy family.
When Nicky’s clients discover that he loves to clean, demand for his services skyrockets. Word of mouth leads him to Spencer Cartwright, a busy computer consultant and a slob. Spencer and his wife divorced when he came out, but he’s never found the time or courage to settle down with a man. As Nicky sets Spencer’s house to rights, the two men find friendship. But Nicky’s past experiences make him wary of risking everything on love.

Cute but nothing spectacular. Slow burn sort of thing. No smex (I haz a sad) but sweet in its own way. Good secondary characters.
Enjoyable and easy to read, the story focused on Nicky learning to accept himself for who he was. The growing relationship with Spencer was sweet, but there wasn't enough dialogue or emotion to really make this feel like a romance. Nicky's friends were fun and added some humor to the story.
sooooo freaking cute and fluffy and sweet, without explicit sex (which wasn't needed), and a lovely romance to boot. Great supporting cast as well. Just a romantic, quick read that I very much enjoyed. Nicky Hauser is not having a good day. After walking in on his boyfriend shagging one of the wa...
I simply adored these two men from the moment they met. Kim Fielding did a great job building a slow and steady love story. There wasn’t much in the way of passion between them, but a real relationship was built through friendship, and personally, I thought it was very romantic. I loved that there w...
