Re-Release: (Dreamspinner Press, 2009) All relationships take work some more than others. Budding careers, overbearing parents, and homophobic vigilantes, with all the roadblocks thrown in the path of love, it's going to take a strong commitment for Del Mathers and Joey Dixon to build their life as a couple. But, some things are worth fighting for Veiled Security , Carolyn LeVine Topol's contemporary tale will be a welcome addition to your romance library. Del Mathers and Joey Dixon have settled in the West Village of New York City, trying to launch their careers at a local and well-respected drag club. Del is balancing his devotion to his lover and his desire to perform on stage; his drag queen alter ego, Venus, a sultry chanteuse, exists to mask his identity because Del is not out to his family. Joey, a gifted musician and lyricist, treasures Del as his partner and inspiration, but he has his own frustrations and is hiding behind a series of conditions, throwing roadblocks into their uncertain path to complete an unconditional commitment. As if dealing with the precarious first steps in their relationship and Del's overbearing parents isn't enough, Del and Joey face danger when a group of homophobic vigilantes starts targeting the gay community. All it takes is a moment's carelessness, and everything they have struggled to build could be destroyed.
