Melissa’s Review: Finding Chandler is book one in Claire Thompson’s The Solitary Knights of Pelham Bay series. Even better, it is available as a free download! This series is about a group of mature gay men who are friends. They have started their own little club, The Solitary Knights, because they have been unlucky in love and intend to remain single and enjoy plenty of sex with no attachments. In their brief introductions, Claire gives just enough insight to these men to show that they may put on a happy face, but below that smile and bravado lies broken hearts and wishes for more.
In this first book, I got a short but emotional look at Eric and Chandler. Claire does a fantastic job of bearing Eric’s soul in this novella. He is a strong man, brought to his knees. As much as I felt so much sorrow for him, I also think that he has learned his lesson and is ready to move forward in his promising future.
As a young man in love for the first time, Chandler was in awe of Eric. He gave him unconditional love, understanding and loyalty even when Eric probably did not deserve it. Now, he is all grown up and mature, and he shows his battle scars of loss.
Claire never fails to get right to the heart of her characters, making them very real and very relatable. I look forward to reading about the rest of The Solitary Knights. I am sure it is going to be a roller coaster of emotions with these men.

Melissa, Thanks for the fabulous review! I'm very excited about Book 2: A Test of Love. The ink is barely dry (er, so to speak) and it's ready for release on 12/31!
I have the book but haven't had the chance to read it, yet (doggone work getting in the way!)
I love Claire's works so I know I won't be disappointed.
Claire, I'm glad to here a book 2 is in the works.
Thanks,
Tracey D
It is always my pleasure, Claire! This series is going to be a big hit, I am sure.
