Eddie and Andrew have dynamite chemistry. But Eddie is profoundly dyslexic, and Andrew lives to read. Andrew is pathologically disorganized, and Eddie likes things neat and clutter-free. Andrew is desperately ashamed of his hoarder father, and Eddie is embarrassed by his lack of education-secrets that could pull them apart even as a friend's tragedy brings them together. When Andrew's father's condition deteriorates and he nearly dies because of his compulsion, Eddie and Andrew must learn compassion begins with loving oneself. Kirjastojen kuvailuja ei löytynyt. |

Eddie "Cha-Cha" Vasquez, the organizer and manger at Brothers Grime, meets B. Andrew Daley when Eddie takes his niece to school and meets Mr. Daley, her handsome teacher. Both men are instantly taken with each other.
But Andrew, the elementary school teacher, has been watching his beloved father slip further and further into the pit of hoarding. In fact, it's nearly impossible to get into Andrew's childhood home these days and the neighbors have asked the city to do something about the problem.
Ashamed of his father's place, Andrew reluctantly agrees to Eddie's help when Andrew learns that Eddie's company routinely does this sort of massive cleanup. Since Eddie's been on a few dates with Andrew and they've nearly reached relationship status, Eddie prepares for the cleanup.
But when the severely dyslexic Eddie sees the mounds of books that Andrew's retired bookstore owner father has stacked all over the house, Eddie decides that no matter how much chemistry they have, they'll never be able to sustain a long-lasting relationship. On one of their first dates Andrew took Eddie to a foreign film with subtitles, and Eddie saw the handwriting on the wall as it were.
Maxfield has beautifully drawn her characters here. Eddie is no lumbering fool, but a man who has come to grips with his inability to read and has found accommodations that let him interact with words on paper, such as a pen that reads lines of text to him and other modern gadgets.
