Heck, after losing a lifetime partner, he figures it’s even affecting his ability to do his job as a veterinarian. Which is why he lets his friends convince him to see a psychologist. Ben is understanding, sympathetic, and a good listener. He’s also the most attractive thing Dakota has seen in a long time. Before they know it, Dakota and Ben are moving from being in a doctor patient relationship to something a lot more interesting, and that presents a whole new set of problems. Can these two put aside the past and build a new life together, one that is uniquely theirs? Related Items:      see moreAverage Rating:
 Rating:  - just too muchthe story started ok, when it was about how the lead deal with the lost of his love, however when he finally find the way to end his sadness the story suddenly turned into a "sex story" nearly cross that "porn" line... at first it was kind of fun to read those sex scenes unfortunately the sex scenes was just way too much!! and they were meaningless!! The scenes appeared every 2 to 3 pages after CH.7~ ~ I wish the story would be more about the struggle among the two to find a balance relation. Rating: - Catching a second windCatching a second wind starts and ends well. In the beginning it is a very enjoyable read but as the story evolves its all about meaningless sex which isn't erotic but rather boring because its so loosely put together. At times it is difficult to follow the action and really put yourself in the character's position. Some of the sex scenes you would just gloss over. Rating:  - Touching, Poignant story of unexpected love...You never know what kind of a story Sean Michael will give us - raunchy, romantic, bdsm, paranormal. Sean gave us a tender story of an unexpected love that develops between a man who has lost his partner of 16years and the therapist who is trying to help him overcome his latent grief. Sean shows the reader how the grief that Dakota is suffering manifests itself in his inability to do his job as a vet. Unfortunately, Ben, the therapist is developing feelings for Dakota while at the same time forcing him to confront his past with his late partner. The author takes the reader along on a painful journey of discovery for Dakota and the difficult angst-ridden Ben who must try to maintain his professionalism. Crossing the line from doctor-patient to friend and lover is not easy.Touching, poignant, filled with heartbreaking realism. Loved it! Rating: - Could have been awesome...but it wasn't.I have read several books by this author, and I cannot help but see a very strong similarity amongst characters. Dakota and his deceased lover Mike are very much like the main characters in the Jarhead series. The young psychologist, Ben seems underdeveloped and just too saccharine. I could never get a feel for him. His only "flaws" seems to be that he is a little young for Dakota and sometimes he over analyzes. The story sort of dragged on, as if there was no point to it. I kept waiting for something to happen. By the time I got half way through it, I began to realize nothing major WAS going to happen in this book. Chronicling the development of a relationship between these two men could have been an awesome story, but it just did not deliver. Another thing I found quite annoying with this story is that the dialogue was elementary. Am I supposed to believe that two doctors would speak in such simplistic terms? I swear the word "good" appeared on EVERY page. "Oh, good!"..."That feels good."... "You feel good." Believe me; you will begin counting the number of times that word shows up while reading. To be completely honest, I found this book to be boring. Even the sex was redundant, and Sean Michael can write some pretty steamy sex scenes. This one just seems to have fallen flat. I would recommend to readers to skip this title and opt for another of this author's works. Rating:  - Ok read...This was a good book. I wont deny it, however towards the end half of the book, it kinda falls into a 'sex void', where the characters are having sex in the pages so often it takes away from the initial storyline. also, it is very repetitive. 3 out of 5 |

All three principals sing eloquently and with a fine sense of the opera's structure and context. Anna Tomowa-Sintow is in even better voice than Domingo, and Giorgio Zancanaro heads an expert supporting cast. The Covent Garden Chorus, directed with distinction by Michael Hampe, gives a memorable impression of the revolutionary mob. Julius Rudel's conducting is totally idiomatic. --Joe McLellan
Lotfi Mansouri spared no effort or expense in making this production special. He personally directed the staging, and handpicked an outstanding cast (right down to the very young and then-unknown Ben Heppner in the small role of Hervey). The visual elements--sets, costumes, and camera work--are also handled with great care, and Sutherland's positive response to this dedication can be sensed in her performance as the unfortunate wife of King Henry VIII. James Morris is best-known as a Wagnerian singer--perhaps the leading Wotan of our time--but he is equally at home in many of the villainous roles that are the fate of bass- baritones (Iago, Scarpia, Don Giovanni). In this sinister tale of an innocent woman ruthlessly destroyed, he shows a surprising knack for the bel canto style. Judith Forst is also excellent in the role of Jane Seymour. --Joe McLellan
