Blurb: Haunted by nightmares, Mark learned the hard way to guard his heart. But Gabe may just be the man to bring Mark's guard down.

 After his last long-term relationship ended because of his nightmares, Mark closed his heart to the possibility of finding love again. He's certainly never considered Gabe, the orderly who works at Miller's Retirement Home where his father lives. But there's more to Gabe than meets the eye, and if Mark is willing to let Gabe in, he might just discover the most important buried treasure of all.

 Review: Love it, loved it, loved it. DC Juris has found the right ingredients for a perfectly blended story. History, lots of history on both Mark and Gabe, but I never once felt like there was a huge dumping of information. Secondary characters, and there are several, but none overwhelm or take the primary focus off Gabe and Mark. A relationship that doesn’t come easy but builds slowly so it’s believable. And all of this done in a short story. This isn’t my first DC Juris story, but it’s my favorite so far. Light humorous moments and emotionally gut wrenching scenes, and lest not forget sex that made me sweat and pant. So yeah, nuff said, this one works.
