Synopsis

Luke Schumaker designs computer games, working from his home. Every day he walks his dog in the woods nearby, never suspecting that someone who is completely smitten is watching.

The watcher is Alex Shaw, and he too works from home, designing logic and crossword puzzles. Alex’s options are limited: he’s too shy to approach Luke and his wheelchair won’t let him follow into the woods. His solution? Secret messages for Luke in the crosswords he writes for the local paper.

When Luke decodes them, romance begins, but then they face greater puzzles, like Alex’s interfering sister and what commitment to a man in a wheelchair really takes. And, most puzzling of all, how do you know if love is real?

Second Edition: The new edition coming out Sept 6, 2019 has an additional 12,000 words plus an overall rewrite. It will be available in paperback for the first time as well as in ebook.

What a beautiful story!

After reading the blurb for this book I was pretty certain that I would love it and boy did I. The story hit me in all of the best places. It made me laugh and then it made me cry sad tears and then, finally, happy tears.

The way that Alex created secret messages for Luke was so romantic and it didn’t matter one bit if it might be a bit far-fetched. It’s a romance and it’s fiction and the whole point is to feel the love and I did.

Alex and Luke really connect with each other. They like the same kinds of things and get each other’s sense of humor. And the sexy time between them is hot.

Everything between Alex and Luke is going great until Luke backs away and then Alex thinks he’s being rejected. Luke is confused about how he feels because things happened so fast between them.

I absolutely love a good short story or novella. I think it takes the right kind of author to be able to convey all that a reader needs to know, in a relatively small amount of words. Eli Easton did exactly that with this gem and I loved it.
