Blurb
During a layover in Basel, Switzerland, he meets Jamie, an American living in Scotland who is as brilliant as he is beautiful. Jaded Ondro never would have guessed he could fall in love during a brief layover—until now.
When he is put in a position to offer Jamie comfort without hope of recompense, Ondro doesn’t hesitate and soon catches a glimpse of the home he longs for. But with their separation looming, confessing his feelings can only lead to pain and humiliation. Life has taught Ondro not to hope, but then, he never believed in love at first sight either…
My Two Pennies' Worth
I've read quite a few of this author's work and been impressed by every one and yet for some reason I've never read this, one of his earlier books. I don't know why I waited so long. The writing is beautiful and expressive just as I have come to except. Roe writes with an amazing flow to his words that gives them depth but somehow keeps from tumbling into flowery prose.
Somehow this short novella packs in plenty. Two characters that you can't fail to get behind, an emotional connection both between and to the characters. There's enough angst to tug on your heartstrings but never enough to break it in two.
Highly recommended.
About the Author
Queer fiction author Roe Horvat was born in the post-communist wasteland of former Czechoslovakia. Equipped with a dark sense of sarcasm, Roe traveled Europe and finally settled in Sweden. He came out as transgender in 2017 and has been fabulous since. He loves Jane Austen, Douglas Adams, bad action movies, stand-up comedy, pale ale, and daiquiri, with equal passion. When not hiding in the studio doing graphics, he can be found trolling cafés in Gothenburg, writing, and people-watching.
