I have to say I’m totally in love with this cover! Sigh! I’ve read a few books by Charlie Richards and I’ve enjoyed every one of them. I like the way the author really seems to understand her characters and I love the sizzling chemistry between them. Her writing is smooth and easy and once I started reading Rainbow Courage I couldn’t stop. It immediately gripped my attention and held it until I finished reading the entire book.Three months ago Carter’s ex-wife was killed in an accident leaving his young son in his care. Carter admits to being less than a part time father to his boy, and even though he now his son full time, he’s prepared to do step up to the plate and try and be a good father. Carter is a little overwhelmed by this new responsibility, but is determined to help heal his son’s grief and make sure that his son knows he can depend on him.When he goes to pick up his son at the daycare for the first time, he meets the owner, Peter and is immediately attracted to him. Peter’s compassion and willingness to help Carter means the world to him, and when it’s obvious that there is a heavy attraction between them, Carter finds himself in a sticky situation. Will he be able to have both his son and Carter in his life?Although I loved both heroes in this book, I admit Peter was my favorite. I loved his zest for life and his compassion and the love he’s willing to give to Carter and his son was truly a beautiful thing to read. Carter too, is an interesting hero. I liked how he admits the mistakes he’s made in the past and is more than willing to do what’s right for both his son and for Peter. It’s not always easy for Carter and he has some difficult choices to make as well as some serious soul searching, but I really appreciated how he stepped up to the plate and ended up doing the right thing for all of them.Rainbow Courage is a fast paced, sexy and heartfelt read that left me with a smile on my face. There’s nothing better than a hero that is willing to grow and do some serious soul searching to both better himself and be a wonderful father and partner for the ones he loves. Recommended! This was a cute story. It's an easy, quick read. Carter's a truck driver that's just been given full responsibility of his three year old son, Toby. At Toby's daycare, Carter meets the owner, Peter. They hit it off immediately except Carter won't take things far because he's in the closet. I liked these characters a lot even though they aren't well developed. Peter seems kind and sincere but he can be a ball-buster when he needs to be. I liked that Carter wouldn't put Peter through a secret affair in the beginning. Although, he kind of threw that out the window when he can't stay away and seeks Peter out. Toby was adorable but then again I love kids in m/m stories.The story doesn't have very much drama. A homophobic father that creates some conflict and the reason for Carter being in the closet. Then there's Toby who didn't seem his age. The boy was three yet he was talking like he was eight or so with complete sentences and perfect pronunciation BUT he was cute. So, yeah. With that, I liked the story. It's not an extravagant read but it's nice. Something you'd want to read if you're looking for a quick smile and a small case of the warm and fuzzies.
