Tough-love romantic novel inhabits the turbulent years
of the 1980s in New York City
Volume II of Bruce K Beck’s Love Trilogy
New York, New York. May 1, 2018
When the New Year gets off to a rocky start, our narrator begins to wonder just where things are headed. Surely he and Bobby, his mate of ten years, are standing on solid ground. Or are they? Can they continue to live and love as they’ve been doing? As the AIDS epidemic swirls all around them, and loss becomes the new normal, will their comfortable life survive? Will their friends survive? Will they survive?
Praise for Volume I:
“Bruce K Beck’s debut novel brings us a naturally gifted and richly imaginative storyteller whose characters leap off the page. You’re Sure to Fall in Love sweeps us back into a Summer of Love that is sure to remind readers of how it feels to be young and starry-eyed. I didn’t want this book to end.”
—James Gavin (author of Is That All There Is?: The Strange Life of Peggy Lee, and Stormy Weather: The Life of Lena Horn)
