Title: Catch Me
Author Name: A.R. Moler
Publication Date & Length: December 5, 2014 – 45pgs
When the SWAT team leader says no to Christmas, you have to wonder why.
It’s Christmas time and Ben Sullivan is having problems getting his boyfriend, Tyler Czuba, to commit to a holiday schedule. Tyler has finally come out to his SWAT team and his relationship with Ben is now out in the open. Tyler has always worked on Christmas and doesn’t seem willing to compromise this year either. When Tyler ends up on desk duty, Ben thinks that maybe that family Christmas will work out after all. But Tyler explodes over the issue. Suddenly, Ben has to wonder if their relationship will even survive the holidays at all.
My favorite part of the story was when Ben finally coaxed the truth out of Tyler about his dislike of Christmas. It was so well done–the emotional tone, the way Ben used all the right tactics, and their eventual conversation (which had details, but again, not too many).
This was a great feel-good read.
