Least Likely Partnership: Book One Doug Heavy Runner left the life of an openly gay Miami police officer and returned to his home on the Salish-Kootenai Indian Reservation when his mother got sick. In the two years since she passed, he's carved out an empty life as a small-town deputy, relying on out-of-town one-night stands to keep him sane. Then he meets Detective Christopher Hayes, and they share a wild night so incredible Doug breaks his own rule and allows a one-night stand to grow into a weekend of amazing sex. When Christopher travels from San Diego to Montana to deal with his abusive brother's suicide, he doesn't expect to find the man he spent the weekend with to be handling his brother's case. He certainly doesn't mind spending more time with Dougâbut then an arsonist destroys the house Christopher inherited from his brother, and Christopher and Doug discover they are the primary suspects. As they investigate, they discover Christopher's dead brother has set them on the trail of a psychotic pedophile who will stop at nothing to silence his last victim. However, the search for the victim goes horribly wrong, leaving Doug hospitalized and Christopher at the mercy of the killerâ¦.… (mehr)

The book was fun at times, and depressing sometimes. Two 30 something guys meet up for casual weekend, turn into more over solving a sad mystery. Lots of secondary characters which is always a welcome. Two points of views so you won't be left guessing. Some hot sex, some self doubt, and a vegan native American.
The narrator wasn't perfect, but at least you could distinguish between characters.

I want to read the second book. ( )

Bad family relations and ugly relatives abound in romance fiction, usually holding either the hero or heroine back from reaching a happily ever after. But few have loaded a character with such a horrific backstory as Thomas does in her debut. Christopher, raised in a foster home, is the brother of a convicted pedophile, whose gruesome suicide becomes the catalyst for the story.

When San Diego detective Christopher Hayes travels to the remote town of Elkin, Montana, he meets former Miami police officer Doug Heavy Runner at a Missoula gay bar on the way not knowing they will be working together after their one night stand.

When Christopher gets to tiny Elkin, where his older brother's body is, he learns that Doug is the officer who cut down Peter's body after his apparent suicide. But when Peter's house burns down and Christopher recognizes anomalies about Peter's death, he and Doug start investigating while their weekend fling heats up into something bigger and longer lasting.

Thomas piles on the baggage for both Christopher and Doug. Not only is Christopher the victim of child abuse but his brother is a convicted sex offender, preying on young boys, all of which makes Christopher reluctant to look into Peter's life in Montana. Peter has carved "Happy Birthday" on his arms, a message to Christopher since he apparently hung himself on Christopher's birthday.
