Mariposa Soul by Adrianna Dane
Andre is a 35 year old investigative report with a perfect winning life: a good job, money and a lot of women to share a bed on night and to leave unattachment on day.

He can't desire no else more... until he meets Simon, his teen's hero, a former report now retired. He is a lot older than Andre, and has a self-consciousness only a very sure man can have. Also him has all in his life, but not a soul mate to share it.

But Andre has never thought on the possibility to be with a man, and Simon knows that and let him go: when Andre will be ready to share his life only with a person, Simon, he will return to him, he is sure of that.

Simon has the strenght derived by a whole life beyond his shoulder. He has lived all and tried all and now he knows what he want. And he also knows that Andre must arrive to his choice alone, not drawn by passion, but only by love.

A very tender and realistic story, with two characters not so young for age, but young when they arrive in the unknown territory of love.
