Dear Author,I’m sending this on behalf of my boss of whom the picture depicted. Been working with him a couple of years as his law firm as his secretary replacing a string of female secretaries in just a few months.He’s not difficult to work for, my boss is. Honestly. I just think my successors expected too much from him… outside of work. I mean, look at his face! Admittedly, even I have a bit of crush on him. But even I had to face the fact that he’s way, waaay out of my reach. Come to think of it, he’s never had any romantic involvement with anybody during the years I’ve worked for him. The only dinner, lunch, or breakfast reservations I have had to make for him were either for work meetings or with his folks. Which reminds me, I have to make one soon for the latter as his folks are coming for a visit the day after tomorrow.As courteous as he’d been with them, my boss doesn’t really seem close or comfortable with his elders. He gave me a short version of his not-so-happy-happy childhood earlier in my days so that I stopped yapping at him to buy meaningful gifts for them. As kind and quiet my boss is, he can be quite stern when he rebukes me. I find this quite sexy, but please don’t tell him I say so.So, dinner reservations for three on next Friday evening… Wait, is that a “4” he wrote in my agenda or I need to have my eyes checked? It IS! Does this mean he’d bring a date to meet the ’rents? How did I miss this? I didn’t see him behaving any differently around the office. People who date should’ve shown some symptoms, shouldn’t they? And how come I never known that he’s gotten close with anyone; male or female? I’m with him almost 12 hours a day! Well, at the office, on the phones, etc., etc.I’ve got to find out more about this!!!Photo Description: A handsome silver-haired man stares into the camera, leaning his head against one hand. He’s backlit by the sun, and his face and bare chest are in shadow. He appears both intent and faintly amused, and it’s hard to look away from his smoldering eyes.This story was written as a part of the M/M Romance Group's "Love’s Landscapes" event. Group members were asked to write a story prompt inspired by a photo of their choice. Authors of the group selected a photo and prompt that spoke to them and wrote a short story.

Nice slow building of tension - I found the ending went a bit too smoothly (especially charming the parents), but with a short story, I guess you have to stop somewhere... :)

This was such a great little story. I'd been waiting for this to become available for download, and it didn't disappoint. It just what I wanted and I had a great time reading it.I really liked Beau and Eric. They were both likable characters and I could see the attraction between them, but there was...

Gray hair is the bomb people. I love it on both men and women. I am quite the advocate for gray hair, not to mention that I spend a fair bit of time in an office. So Making It Work was all sorts of win for me. Besides, what could be more gob-smackingly satisfying than finding out that your crush...

Happy sigh. Great little, slow-burn romance with charming characters. My only critique is that I wanted it be longer, and more sex *no pun intended*

*** 4.5 Silver Fox-worthy Stars ***Rawr! This one hit all the right notes for me. I adored how obtuse Eric was, and how fucking sexy Beau was, and how they were both sweet and scorching hot together. I love the age gap and boss/employee tropes sooooo much it should be illegal (at the very least some...
