A groundbreaking merger of genres, Luke Hartwell's latest novel, Love Underneath, is as distinctive as its predecessors. Using characters and early chapters from his deleted novel Locomotives in Winter, Hartwell has created a beautiful, sexy story of guys who love. Hunter, a high school senior, finds himself with no place to go and ends up sharing a bed with the friend and classmate he once had abandoned. Brandon, who has been in love with Hunter since ninth grade, finds having Hunter in his bed every night an intimidating dream come true. After graduating, the two boys part. Years later Brandon receives an unexpected call from Hunter, who has been married twice and has a son. Now, he's come to realize Brandon was always the love of his life. Love Underneath is a multifaceted novel about human relationships. As Brandon meets Hunter's son, Ben; Ben's best friend, Taylor; Taylor's father, Case, and the gardener, Jorge, the novel takes twists and turns that intrigue and delight. As with all Hartwell fiction, the characterizations, narration, and depth of feeling leave an impact.
Publisher’s Note
Although the opening chapters of Love Underneath will sound familiar to those who have read Luke Hartwell’s Locomotives in Winter, this is not the same book. Hartwell has used the opening chapters of Locomotives as a base, but the opening section has been expanded, with a new character added. The second part of the book has some events in common with Locomotives but contains an enormous amount of new material and a very different ending, one which we think readers will like. In short, Hartwell has completely rewritten Locomotives, improved upon it immensely, and considers Love Underneath the definitive version of the novel. Locomotives in Winter is being deleted from our catalogue. Love Underneath is being made available in paperback, e-book, and audiobook formats. We hope you enjoy.
