Shawn Delaney doesn’t have room in his life for love and a commitment. Nope, all he wants is a quick encounter and the memories for later entertainment. But, when he meets Marc Wright at an adult bookstore, he’s rocked by their chemistry and it leads to Shawn contemplating having more than a one night stand. Marc has his own reasons for not wanting things to progress, but something about Shawn calls to him. There’s more than meets the eye when it comes to Marc and Shawn wants to know what’s really going on. Will it strengthen their relationship or throw the two men apart forever?

In Furtive Liaison, Amanda Young writes about love, commitment and the extents we go to for love. Marc has a passion that throws Shawn’s libido into overdrive. Determined to leave love to others, Shawn has refused to think beyond a few nights of desire, but Marc changes that with his kind heart. His feelings for Marc made it impossible to let this be another one hit wonder, even if he wasn’t ready to admit it. I could see both men’s sides clearly, when the truth was revealed, and found it hard to actually take either man’s side over the other. People have to make hard decisions in life, but it’s always better when you have a support system. I plan to read this book again in the near future.
