Synopsis:
Dreams.
I used to have them—before the nightmares started.
I dreamed of nice guys, love…normalcy.
Things like reading the Sunday paper in bed with my lover.
But who needs dreams when your reality is filled with a string of faceless dominating men in uniform? Men that pack a thick bulge and are only too happy to satisfy my deviant sexual cravings.
Me. That's who.
And then HE walked through the door and shared with me, a total stranger, his intimate dream of love. Damn him for verbalizing every single detail of the dream I buried long ago.
And now I don’t know how I'm going to live without that dream.
Or him.

Excerpt:
Henry was deeply ensconced in his own head, making resolutions about moving on, not paying attention to his surroundings, or seeing the man, as he approached his car. He was leaning against the hood, his thick muscled arms folded across his chest. Calm, cool, collected, in charge and so damn freaking handsome.

“Your place?” was all he said.

Henry felt the sharp stab in his heart as his adrenal glands shot a release of hormones into his blood stream. Shaking his head no, he was shocked at how cool and calm his voice sounded, when he was anything but, “No. I don’t think so. You haven’t even bought me a drink yet.”

Walking around the big Marine to the driver’s side, Henry hit the remote, unlocking the door.

With a palm to the solar plexus to stop him, “Where are you going?” the Marine asked.

“Home,” Henry was very matter-of-fact.

“I thought you wanted me to buy you a drink?”

Stepping around the Marine, Henry opened the door to his black BMW and got in. “I do…” and he closed the door and started the engine.

Rolling down the window, he added with a smile, “… on Sunday.” Gunning the Beamer's engine, he left the Marine in the dusty parking lot with a smile on his handsome face.
Well played, Henry congratulated himself. Let him ache for me as much as I’ve been aching for him.

~ Marlene's Review ~
3.5 Stars!
Henry’s end is a journey of one man’s search for love and happiness in a world where he is still not fully accepted. We are taken through three very different relationships. One man is exciting, dominant, and laced with sin. Another man is a beautiful spirit, supportive, and full of everlasting love. And lastly, one man is Henry’s End... his forever.

The writing was excellent. I was in every moment with every scene. I was also very impressed with the variety of characters, each having a very different influence on Henry. It took me a bit to get into the groove of the storyline, but once I got there, I liked it. Henry’s journey had many twists and turns that kept me interested.

This book brought out a bunch of different feels for me. At times I was excited, sometimes heartbroken, sometimes hopeful, and sometimes frustrated. Unfortunately, I felt that the book ended rather abruptly. I was left with wanting more and the need to see how this final relationship plays out.

I recommend this book to those that are looking for a multifaceted m/m storyline with a lot of heart!
