Buy on AmazonLost Boy is an opposites attract, smaller top, size difference romance featuring a strong but gentle veterinarian and a police dog trainer with a fiery temper.

Veterinarian Leo Aetos adores animals, has a great apartment in Brooklyn, and even has a favorite bar. The only thing he doesn’t have is someone to share it all with. Finding that man is easier said than done because he’s searching for a partner with specific interests. He needs a man who steps out of the stereotype and that’s tall order. Much like he is, at well over six feet.

Police dog-trainer Chris Kinney figures there’s no way he’d be anything close to what Leo wants. His last relationship failed miserably and he is sure it was his own fault. He just couldn’t be the kind of man his ex needed him to be. Worse, he struggles with his temper, and he’s not even sure he belongs in New York.

Leo decides to take Chris on despite Chris’s misgivings, with some help from his friends from Les’s Bar. He knows pretty much right away he’s not going to want to let Chris go. But will he be able to convince Chris they can both get what they need, and that the ex can’t threaten their new relationship?
