M/F Romance For The Queer Theory / Traditional-Masculinity-Is-Toxic crowd. I've read a lot of books in a lot of genres with nearly every bent you can imagine outside of swords and sorcery fantasy - which I simply can't get into, no matter how much I try - and this one has some interesting things going for it. Our female lead is a museum curator - not usually s

Here's what I had to say on the review sites (Goodreads, TheStoryGraph, BookHype):

Fun, Informative Without Being Preachy - But *IS* Focused On Advocacy As Much As Romance. This is one of those books that works its advocacy into its story in a compelling way that doesn't come across as preachy at all - but *can* feel like a bit of a "Sponsored By" kind of a tale.

I can tell you as much about how chronic pain can completely take over a person's life as I can about the actual character who has it and her budding relationship throughout this tale. Indeed, the actual "conflict" here is largely over just about 50% into the tale, with another blowup a bit later. But it is this section in between in particular where the book is at the height of its paid promotional

'Rise Of The Warrior Cop' - For Probation And Parole. A decade ago this summer, one of the best books on policing I've ever encountered was released.
