From hearts and flowers to down and dirty, Best Gay Romance 2013 has both heat and sweet. The stories in this collection of the best of the best range from a blue-collar bear whose secret crush wants him too, to a boy-next-door who is stood up by one date only to take a chance on another date and, against every odd, wins.
