book cover for Bottom Line

Review - Bottom Line by G.B. Gordon

My rating: * * * * *

Nick hasn’t heard from Ben since their one night of passion, but that’s okay with him. Nick’s life has been a long string of one-night-stands with no commitments, and that’s the way he likes it. He still can’t get Ben out of his mind, though. Maybe he just needs more time, so a trip to Vancouver, Canada to liaise with an international team investigating money laundering might be just the thing.
