I like Long-term-relationship plots because they explore the reality of day-to-day love and commitment, with the good and the bad, the easy and the hard. Elliot and Tucker, who gave their fling a second chance in Fair Game, have just passed the six-month stage in their relationship. Tucker, who has really put everything in this relationship, is very protective of Elliott, and the very independent and proud Elliott does not always like it. There is also the fact that their sexual dynamics - which Elliot still has difficulty coming to terms with- makes Elliot extra sensitive about the power dynamics out of the bedroom. By the way, the sex is HOT. 
 I liked the mystery, it's quite believable. Elliott's father plays a big role in it, and I really like this older man. He reminds me of Cole's father in Strawberries for Dessert . 
 The relationship between Elliott and his dad is made of lots of love and respect, even though they don't see eye to eye on many, many points. Elliott is a former sixties anti-war anarchist, and Elliot is a former FBI agent. They are at the opposite ends of the political map, so you can imagine some interesting conflicts! 
 In this book, we learn more about Tucker, Elliot's love interest: family background, what he believes in, what makes him wake up in the morning. I like him. He is a complex man, his childhood was far from ideal, but he shows no self-pity or self indulgence. He is the strong, silent type but he manages to express his love for Elliott in his indirect and little bit obscure way. It's pretty cute, mainly because Elliott is fluent in "Tucker's speak". 
 We don't only learn more about Tucker, we also discover some aspects of Elliot's personality and kinks. He sure is one kick-ass, stubborn ex Special Agent, with a healthy appetite for sex. 
 All in all, very good read. *Sighs* I wish the audio was already available. This was worth waiting a few years for.
