About the Author

N.R. Walker is an Australian author, who loves her genre of gay romance. She loves writing and spends far too much time doing it, but wouldn't have it any other way. She is many things; a mother, a wife, a sister, a writer. She has pretty, pretty boys who live in her head, who don't let her sleep at night unless she gives them life with words. She likes it when they do dirty, dirty things...but likes it even more when they fall in love. She used to think having people in her head talking to her was weird, until one day she happened across other writers who told her it was normal. She's been writing ever since...

A short and sweet read that I couldn't put down. This packed a huge emotional punch. I loved that we got to see both the past and the present. So good.

4.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful story
Reviewed in the United States on September 11, 2015

Damn this was good. I love emotional stories and this was definitely emotional. It could have gone so wrong especially with Billy and Hale's story at the end.

The first story was emotional in its own way, but the second story... Damn! Even though it was very hard for me to read, I thought N.R. Walker did an amazing job with the second story as well as the first. Where the first one had me smiling, the second one made me feel very sad and emotional in general.

Alex and Callum were the cutest. I loved Alex's family and the supportive, embarrassing family they were. Their presence in the book was a huge bonus. The relationship between Callum and Alex left me feeling all warm and fuzzy inside. And I just adored both of those characters. That's another thing N.R. Walker is good at, making me fall in love with both MC's.

The thing with the watch and the initials... I did kinda guess who the B was after I heard the second name. And I thought Callum's granny was a great older character and her part in both stories was very... tragic almost. I felt like she was a beautiful character and I wish she'd had her own happy ending.

Overall, this was a really great story and I think the ending of both was perfect!

It’s been a while since I read anything by NR Walker, but it’s clear to see that she hasn’t lost her touch when it comes to conveying emotion. There were only a very few editing mistakes, but barely even noticeable, let alone causing a problem. This was an amazing book, I loved it from beginning to end. The first 6 chapters, up to about 66%, is the story of Alex and Callum. Even though I pretty much figured out most of the story of the watch’s history before the MCs did, it was still great how the author brought it all together. Callum was so very sweet and loveable, and Alex was so patient and great with him. They had a good relationship that, unlike a lot of stories these days, actually started without them jumping into bed within the first 72 hours. I loved how Alex’s family was not only very accepting of Alex’s sexuality, but they treated him no different, practically pushing him into Callum’s arms. Even though their story didn’t end quite the way I would’ve wanted, it still ended with an HEA, so I was happy with that.

I was a bit surprised when I turned the page at 67% and saw the actual story behind the watch, being relayed in the book. I don’t know how Ms. Walker could make a story so beautiful and yet so heart wrenching at the same time. It was actually moving. Even the ending was sweet. It is very rare for me to give a book 5 stars, but I think the 2nd story is what pushed it over into that territory for me.

3.0 out of 5 stars two gay men discover each other and a secret
Reviewed in the United States on August 13, 2015

I'm sure you know by now that this is a story of two gay men discovering each other and a secret from one's past. I thought the story was a good one. However, the characters one man's parents and his brother. He is a 23 year old man and his family treats him like a 10 year old boy with a first crush. His brother, Scott, is an obnoxious ass. I could not stand him. He was just smut. I would have like to take him behind the barn and given him what for!!! I did not like him. then his parents. OMG, they treated him like a child. It is like when someone is overly OK with a person being gay and then proceeds to set them up with everything that walks by and then acts like they are so cute. They got on my last nerve. I don't know how he could stand any of them.

I did quit reading. I thought the story had a lot of potential and I would get an insight and understanding of a gay relationship but I just felt sorry for both guys. It is bad enough that they can get bullied but then you run into his family and they are even worse. Couldn't stand them. Couldn't read any more and have to watch him endure their teasing and "help" with finding his way. If you like gay romance stories I think you will probably like this one. It just wasn't for me because of the side characters.

1.0 out of 5 stars you will probably like the book
Reviewed in the United States on August 9, 2015

Read and ck out the author's other books before you buy, even if free! I only read the description first offered before ordering. I had entered Christian historical fiction so, naive me, thought it referred to heterosexual couples in a historical setting. NOT! Author's genre is gay romance which I only discovered with further reading. If this is your choice, you will probably like the book. Not for me however and wish it had been a little more obvious from the beginning.

N.R. Walker could teach classes on how to write conversations to romance writers. This is a fast-paced novella, which I did not want to put down. Her books are populated by characters with unique voices. I enjoy reading her work.

5.0 out of 5 stars Poignant.
Reviewed in Australia on January 23, 2024

I’m currently crying my eyes out. This story is that touching. The characters are that real to me. The connection is that real. Their heartache is my heartache. Their joy is my joy. This is not one love story. It is two. Maybe it is actually three. I’m not sure if Cal’s grandparents and his great uncle count as one love with three components or two love stories. Which ever it is it is touching and truly poignant. If you read only one story this year this should be it. Even if you’re not normally keen on short stories, read this one. It’s that good.
