A battle weary mercenary who's sick to death of blood and death, Fortitude McLaren works as roustabout for Ten Nations Fair in an effort to forget. He's unable to handle the terrible fascination that the acrobat Griff holds for his unruly libido. Raised in the belief that manlove is corrupt, he's unable to reconcile his lust in his head until a job for the Aetherii almost costs Griff his life.

Cocky, with a zest for life, Griffid Ringman has no intention of allowing Fort to simply walk out of his life. He's willing to do whatever he must to help this weary giant accept in his head and heart the love he's seen shining in his eyes. But even Griff's endless patience begins to run thin.

This third in the series simply gets better as it expands, and the character studies encompassed within are becoming smoother as they grow. I love the fact that there are always one or two central characters who remain steadfast as the new are added. The struggles to overcome the fears and grasp love offered are touching, while the sex is amazing. I hope there are more to come.
