About book This Rough Magic (2011)

I absolutely loved this! I was hooked from the very start. Rafferty and Brett were quite likable and the romance was slow and sweet. I quite enjoyed the fact that the first half of the book read entirely like a detective story. I was very curious to find out who done it while also savouring the promise of the romance in store.Audio Note: Jordan Murphy's narration was quite competent and enjoyable. The time setting, the 30's, was another character in the story. It was so well crafted that the reader was drawn in seamlessly. There was no need to hit the reader over the head explaining the time period. It was done through the actions of the characters and their reactions to each other. I was reminded of wonderful classic mysteries of the 30's and 40's. Neil Rafferty was written as a complete three dimensional character. He was tough and quietly analytical, yet so compassionate with Brett. Brett was so tormented. He felt a great responsibility for his irresponsibility family. He was torn between putting himself up as a sacrifice for the financial rescue of that family or to live his life as he was deep inside. Feeling his emotional inner battle was heart wrenching and tore my soul. Their journey was quick in time but not in emotion. It was real. They were so wonderful together. I am an admitted fan of Josh Lanyon. He is an excellent writer. He should be considered a great writer not just a great M/M writer. His stories are always character driven with really great characters that stay with the reader. The emotion expressed in his stories is always deep and real. This was another wonderful example.
