Second Time Around by Bobby Michaels

I can frankly say that Bobby Michaels is becoming one of my favourite writers in the M/M genre.

Second Time Around is his first paranormal romance but you can still find some of his caracterist touches in it: the young lovers, the difficult outing for one or for both of them, the Marine Corps... but somewhat this novel is more lighthearted, and it is strange cause it deals with a delicate matter like HIV.

David is coming back home after ten years to heal his wounds: his ten years lover has cheated on him and he has not thought two times and has dumped him immediately. But now he is back in the town where he met his real first love, his childhooh friend Josh, his straight as an arrow friend and so his impossible love. Fortunately Josh doen't live anymore there and David can settled himself, only to discover that Josh is back home himself and he is in love with David, now as ten year before. Everything perfect, but David discovers that his ex lover has passed him the HIV and that Josh is a werewolf and biting him he can heal David from the virus and...

Josh is not the "classical" alpha male: he is gentle and caring, sometimes childish. He can cry and he is a lot more than normal enthusiastic  during lovemaking, like a child with a new toy. And David is cute, so shy but also so proud, he is not so open to love like Josh is, he need reassurance. I like the relationship between the two, and like very much the aftersex moment, when they talk and play: maybe only a couple who know each other so long can be like this.

Second Time Around is a smooth novel, you read it in a breath and close the last page with a peaceful feeling: it is all, simple and pure love.
