|S.J.D. Peterson|http://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1338942924s/14927724.jpg|20581956] and I really didn't think that [a:S.J.D. Peterson|4563849|S.J.D. Peterson|http://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/authors/1341316841p2/4563849.jpg] could improve on it, but seriously she has, and she has given us a beautiful story with a touch of angst and family unrest, while giving us a love story that has extended for decades. Gunny is quickly reassured by Mac about what Mac wants after retirement, but, his worry begins anew when Mac confides he wants to come out to his parents. Mac knows what he wants and it is Gunny. With retirement and the repeal of DADT he wants to go out in style, but coming out to his parents doesn't go as planned and he is left reeling with Gunny being his rock. Gunny has his own family problems as he tries to reconnect with his mother and father, but some wounds are still raw and Gunny is left adrift unsure if his parents will ever come around. <br/><br/>I loved this story, after Gunny and Mac settle their relationship and where they are going with it, we then see the full story of what is happening with their families and how Gunny and Mac react to the truth of being treated as gay men. Mac does have his head in the clouds a little thinking nothing would change but both he and Gunny realize the truth when they become the ones the slurs and insults are being thrown at. The background we get of both Gunny and Mac is interesting and we see how strained Gunny's relationship is with his parents but Mac's parents more than make up for it. <br/><br/>This is a great story of that there is no doubt, we have fantastic hot military men, hot sex, some slight BDSM that is really hot, we find that Mac can act like a ten year old, we have both Mac and Gunny being supportive and sexy. There really isn't that much missing from this story, angst, worry, reality, love and support, it has it all.<br/><br/>I recommend this wonderful story to those who love military men coming out in style, enduring love, some angst and family drama, great characters and a brilliant ending.
