Lynn Lorenz has yet another great romance in Pinky Swear
I wasn’t sure at first—with the book starting when the boys were only nine—but I was quickly drawn into the hilarity of the situation. Lane’s mom had me rolling on the floor and I swear Ms. Lorenz was so vivid in the details that I could have been there in person watching the priest “tromping” around the backyard, exorcising everything in sight. It was priceless.
She moves on to highlight small, memorable points in the boys life as young teens to teenagers, the turning point in their lives at college, and then onto them as men. Each separate scene rolled right into the next. I was so sucked into the stor,y I quickly lost time. Who needs sleep? It is overrated anyway;) lol
I really wanted to crawl into the book and knock Matt upside the head. I felt so sorry for Lane. Matt was totally clueless but I had to wonder what would have happened if Lane had spoken up sooner. Would things have been different?
The visual images Lynn created in my mind of Hurricane Katarina broke my heart but were a perfect point in life to bring these two men back together and for Matt to redeem himself. But trust me, Lane doesn’t make it all that easy on him.
If you haven’t read Pinky Swea,r you really need to get it. This one will definitely be going in my Lynn Lorenz favorites list.

**********
Book Description: Lane and Matt have been best friends since they were ten years old. They’ve been through everything together—childhood adventures in their New Orleans uptown neighborhood, Lane’s stuttering, Matt’s alcoholic father, high school angst, and “coming out” in college. All through the years, they’d shared secrets and, using the powerful pinky swear, vowed to keep every one of them. But neither Lane nor Matt ever told each other his biggest secret—that they were in love with each other.
For Lane, Matt was everything he wasn’t—gorgeous, sexy and outgoing. He had a different boyfriend every week, and Lane couldn’t get a date, let alone the man of his dreams. For Matt, he could never measure up to Lane, never be good enough for the man who set his heart on fire. Neither wanted to risk the deep friendship they shared to find out if the other felt more. Yet after one night of incredible drunken passion, Lane woke up to find Matt gone and a note saying he was sorry and not much more.
Four years later and half a country separated, one fateful storm, Hurricane Katrina, brings the old friends together again. But four years is a long time, and Lane’s grown up, matured, more sure of himself than ever. When Matt rushes home from the West Coast to find the friend he loved and fled, he discovers not just the man he left behind, but a man who knows what he wants—a best friend and a lover who won’t run, who’ll stay forever.
Now, it’s up to Matt to make the pinky swear…
