It was literally a 'Mission Impossible' kind of situation but ... John Wiltshire's Ben & Nik stole my heart. 'Love is a Stranger' sucked me in right from the Prologue and managed to hit all the right buttons thereafter: 3rd person narrative (I think I've become allergic to anything BUT), set in Britain, exquisite writing, mystery element that had me guessing and biting my finger nails till the end, the chemistry, the two men ... what can I say? Damaged men is something I crave in my books. They provide for fantastic leading men which is exactly what happens in this book. What else? Ah ... the dialogue. That back and forth banter. The British-ism (is that a word?). I can keep going but honestly ... if M/M is your thing and even if it isn't but you are in need of an exceptionally well written story, give this a go.
I one-clicked THE ENTIRE series after having read a free sample of this book on Amazon. John Wiltshire now has a fan for life in me!
