Atypical MM Romance. This is at least a somewhat atypical MM romance in that we get two guys who neither one is a big fan of penetration (and yet, it *does* happen - a couple of times, at least) and who are both fairly well fleshed out in their motivations and who they are, and both ring fairly true. One is the Navy guy that finds himself at a career crossroad, the other is a single uncle/dad going through a messy divorce. Being at a bit of a career crossroad myself and having a few nieces and a nephew and having to at least consider what happens here... yeah. Both of the situations here hit hard. The steam... not so much. I think I've seen coffee with thicker steam, but I actually *like* that about this tale - it is part of its atypicality, in very good ways. If you're into radioactive heat and steam you can't see your hand in front of your face through... this isn't for you. If you're more into *real* without being *too real* (ie, "real", but still escapist)... this is going to be more your thing. Overall a strong continuation of this series, and I'm looking forward to seeing where Albert takes this next. Very much recommended.
