Summary
When Luca Ward was five years old, he swore he would love Imre Claybourne forever. Years later, that promise holds true - and when Luca finds himself shipped off to Imre's North Yorkshire goat farm in disgrace, long-buried feelings flare back to life. The lines around Imre's eyes may be deeper, the once-black night of his hair silvered to steel and stone . . . but he's still the same slow-moving mountain of a man whose quiet-spoken warmth, gentle hands, and deep ties to his Roma heritage have always, to Luca, meant home.
The problem?
Imre is more than twice Luca's age.
And Luca's father's best friend.
Yet if Imre is everything Luca remembered, for Imre this hot-eyed, fey young man is nothing of the boy he knew. Gone is the child, replaced by a vivid man whose fettered spirit is spinning, searching for north, his heart a thing of wild sweet pure emotion that draws Imre into the compelling fire of Luca's frustrated passions. That fragile heart means everything to Imre - and he'll do anything to protect it.
But can he resist the allure in cat-green eyes when Luca places his trembling heart in Imre's hands . . . and begs for his love, over and over again?
Contains mature themes.

A wonderful story that completely immerses you
The slowest, most evocative, burn with characters in glorious detail and a rich evocative background, I loved this book.
Just beautiful!

The book title does not lie ....
The writing is beautiful and descriptions so vivid that l smelt the earth on Imra's farm. Philip Alces did so much to convey this with his sonorous vocals, languid pacing and musicality to his phrasing. Imra sounded perfect because he benefited from the narrator's own lovely bass. Luca was okay but l wished the narrator tapped into a lightness of youth as he did with Jason in Consorting with Dragons (by Sera Trevor).
For 17 hours, Luca and Imra repeated their respective concerns over and over and over again. If Imra saw Luca as more than a petulant child to be indulged, than l missed it and therefore the nub - his emotional connection to Luca that was romantic rather than paternal. Not for one second did I believe Luca's affection for Imra transitioned from saviour to love interest because his inner monologues focused so much on how secure and safe he felt with Imra as a child. Credit to the writing that l did not get any creepy or disquieting vibes? I was only bored.

writing style is no substitute for a plot
These two characters love each other. From the start, we see it in looks, thoughts, feelings, words and actions. And after 8 hours I think: I could have skipped the last 6 hours and still understand what is going on. They are taking care of goats and observing each other.
The narration is good.
