Another sweet gem from my favorite author.This short story takes place on Valentine's Day,actually the eve of it where we're introduced to Cade, a man who never celebrated the holiday even when his lover was alive.Cade's lover has been dead for 8 months, a victim of AIDS and Cade is HIV+.Cade who isn't even 30,finds finds himself disenchanted, lonely,tried, and depressed.Enter Joel, a new co-worker, 22 years old shy, funny, cute, and a crush on Cade.Such a sweet story that I wouldn't mind being longer.It's definitely a good read! 3 and a half stars, I really liked Cade and how his relationship quJoel progressed, things weren't perfect, they were messy uncool and honest, just like in real life, Truly I didn't liked Lorin at all.and I think Cade was a little too dependant to stay in a relationship he didn't feel truly satisfied but oh well, Love trully changes you, at least Joel is so very lovely, I liked the take this book did of Aids, even in this day and age people still think AIDS mean their life is over, it isn't and I liked the normality this book portrayed around it, and the scene with Cade in the grave, simply perfect.
