Third in the Men in Motion series, who better than a trucker could be one of the hero? Jude Rae is a Texan long hauler trucker. From a small town Texas, he is the proud owner of a 18 wheels new truck that he always parades in front of everyone. Jude is a good guy, and even if he is not in the closet, he doesn't see the reason to flaunt his sexuality since the trucker world seem not so accepting, especially in the deep south. In comparison to other male characters by G.A. Hauser, Jude is almost a perfect hero, tender, caring, respectful of the elders... the only time he was nasty is when he admits with himself to have been happy that his ex wife cheated on him, so she had the fault to ending their marriage, even if he long ago stopped to love her.

Logan is a 26 years old WASP mom's son... wealthy, spoilt and too much clever for his own good, after graduating from a prestigious law school, he has not reason to set an own life. He is wandering among the States searching for something he even knows what. Since he meets Jude. Even if Jude is a bit shy, he has the joy of life in him and he involves Logan. They spend a lot of time tip-toeing around each other since their gaydar seems not working well, but when they finally admit the mutual interesting, the sleeping quarter of the truck is too small to contain them.

Even if Logan is younger, he is more enthusiastic and wants to experiment a lot. He has had few partners in the past, but maybe he was freer to express his sexuality, and so he sweep off Jude with his euphoria. Jude only experiences with men are fast one night standings and he thought to be happy with that. But a relationship with Logan is not something he can hide, since the boy is too enthusiastic and "loudy", and not only in the voice meaning. If Jude wants to be with Logan, he not only needs to set down somewhere he also needs to fully embrace his sexuality and fully stepping out of the closet.

All in all Logan doesn't change much after meeting Jude. He is still a free spirit, and a spoilt brat, but Jude is too kindhearted to disappoint him: Logan only passes to be spoilt by his parents, to be spoilt by Jude.

This book is a bit of a change in the usual production from G.A. Hauser... the characters are not so "bad boy" like in the previous books. True, Logan is a brat, but all in all he is nice and friendly. Jude instead his a very good boy, the classical man your mommy would like for you to bring home...
