A declaration of love - gay couples talk about their significant other. Current and past liaisons, passion and daily routine, longtime relationships and the tingle of first dates - the day-to-day reality of love is manifold. This anthology also tells about a time of loss, when many men lost their partners - and how hope and the will to live prevail. But most of all, this eBook is about something timeless: Love. "Two Hearts Desire", the touching, erotic, and funny portrayal of gay love, was first published in 1997 - now available in digital format for the first time. Only at Bastei Entertainment!
