"Cop Out" by KC Burn
This was an unusual story of Kurt, a Toronto cop, who is injured and his partner killed in a shooting. Even though he'd been partnered with Ben for several years, it turns out that Kurt really didn't know much about him outside of work. For one thing, Ben was gay, and for another, he had a longtime boyfriend, Davy, with whom he'd been living. When Kurt meets the inconsolable man at Ben's funeral, he knows he has to do something to help as he would if Ben had been with a woman. But as Kurt gets to know Davy, he comes to realize that Davy has been the victim of Ben's verbal and mental abuse. That's all I can say to prevent spoiling this emotional story about two men connected by tragedy and second chances. I'd definitely read a sequel. 200 pages (Kindle edition).
