A midlife M/M romance novella about choosing love.

Sergei Kotov had a good job and a good life in Las Vegas. At fifty-three, he had more than most people, and if it wasn't everything he wanted, it was enough; he was content. Then a friend from his past sent him to see a new lounge act, and suddenly Sergei was no longer content.

Gino Corsetti had nothing to complain of. At forty-seven, he had the sort of long-term performance contract that most singers could only dream of. After a quarter of a century on the road, he was finally ready to call someplace home. If only he knew what that meant. Then a friend told him someone was coming to see his show. A man who'd made a home for himself, here in Vegas.

There'd been a lot of Maybe and Not Quite in Gino's life. A lot of Almost and Not Now in Sergei's. The idea that they might be right for each other seemed like more than a gamble: it seemed like an impossible dream. But what if it were true?

Adult situations, themes, and language; 25,500 words and a happy ending.
