I truly hate to see this series end...but what a beautiful, warm and lovely story to end it, leaving these men who have entertained us through 7 books to enjoy their found happiness. Jeremy has been so present through the last six books and now he gets his story as well as his well-earned love and happiness. We have heard him struggle with his stuttering causing him to hide from life in the bakery. While his close friends don't have a problem with his stutter, Jeremy’s experience has been that everyone he has dared to try to have a relationship with, put their own desires and wants before giving any thought to what makes Jeremy and others like him, special in their own right. Just one short, arranged night in New York allowed Jeremy to have an unforgettable night with an unforgettable and attractive silver fox...Montgomery. Jeremy went away from his hometown for the encounter as he didn't want to take the chance that anyone would know him and know about his stutter. He pulled this off with one big requirement for the "date"...the one condition? no speaking, absolutely no talking. Montgomery...The guy he was meeting, was beyond kind and had no trouble with Jeremy's "rule".... after all, they were never going to see each other again. Montgomery was a Brit that was moving to the U.S. to work at the Vet Boys Animal Clinic, in Jeremy's hometown...but Jeremy didn't know that since ...the "no taking" rule. Montgomery has his own problems.... he's grieving his late mother, but he wants to make a clean start, away from the UK all the way to the U.S. With an overlay in New York, he grabbed the opportunity to have this encounter with this guy with the "no speaking rule. You can guess what happens when Jeremy gets home. He is shocked, and to say he's surprised, would be the understatement of the year. So... he tries his hardest to simply ignore and avoid Montgomery. Even though Jeremy's situation was painful, I had to laugh because it was freaking hilarious the lengths that Jeremy went to, to avoid speaking to Monty. At last, they reconnect, and Monty is more than understanding. They are such a great team. Slowly they build a friendship and more. It has been such a pleasure to meet these guys and to know not only Jeremy but also Montgomery because he has his own story to tell, which we learn by the end....and we get to see how Jeremy and Monty are doing 39 years into their future at the end of the story. I have to give Casey Cox a tremendous amount of credit. She has masterfully created this series and these characters, my compliments and my thanks to her!! It was a wonderfully written series...it was fun...it was emotional...it was engaging and adorable. I'll be revisiting these guys at some point. ( )
