For sure Cheryl Dragon in this book mix a lot of different things, coming of age, psychic powers, past life and historical little escapades...

Steve and Alex were best friend in high school; both gay, the two boy approached sex in a different way: Steve did everything he could have and instead Alex restrained until college. Both of them knew that they loved each other, but Steve didn't want to ruin their friendship and Alex didn't want to be one more castoff of his friend.

Years later Steve is recuperating from a sex addiction, something that led him to be a willing participant in a rehabilitation center. Now it's six months that Steve is 'chaste', but he is only able to avoid sex, he doesn't know why he has the impulse to search it everywhere; and when he finds out that his best friend Alex is back in town, and that he is a psychiatric, he decides to ask him help: it's obvious to Steve and to the reader as well, that Alex is part of the reason Steve is searching, and it's obvious that they will not have a normal relationship patient / doctor. And so it's, since from the first time Alex and Steve mix sex and therapy, with Steve that relives his past life only to find out that in every one of them, he was in love with Alex: two crusaders in the Middle Ages, an harem girl and an eunuch, two officers in the Regency England and a white man and a Native American girl at the end of the nineteen century. In this way Steve will find out why he has this urge to have sex everytime and everywhere and as much as possible, and Alex will help him in his healing process... or maybe he only volunteers to be the main obsession of Steve!

The plot is quite original, even if I would like to read more of the present life of Steve and Alex, and less of all that past life, that we haven't time to deepen and in this way felt too far away. And maybe for a sex addict like Steve having sex since the first encounter with Alex is not exactly something a doctor like Alex would do... but well they were expecting so many years that probably they didn't want to wait more.
