What happens when the person you've loved for decades is suddenly gone?

In my new novel, Something About Martin, an elderly gay man living in Honolulu must find his way through the grief of losing his husband.

But when a struggling young college student enters his life, an unlikely friendship opens the door to something Martin never expected.

It's a story about love, loss, chosen family, and discovering that life isn't necessarily finished with us just because we're growing old.

Something About Martin is now available as an eBook from JMS Books and Amazon Kindle!

A Love Story for a Lifetime ... and Beyond

My new novel, Something About Martin, is finally here!

Set in Honolulu, it's the story of Martin Reily, a man approaching ninety who has lost the love of his life. Just when he believes his best years are behind him, an unexpected friendship with a young college student changes everything.

It's a story about love, grief, chosen family, and the surprising ways people can change each other's lives, regardless of age.

Now available as an eBook from JMS Books. The paperback is coming early next year.

Good News... Something About Martin, my newest book, has been released as an ebook... The ebook was published last Saturday. The paperback will take some time, but it will most likely come out early next year. It is currently on sale, and I encourage you to buy the ebook to read this holiday season.

https://www.jms-books.com/something-about-martin-p-5841.html

It's a truly inspirational read about what it is like to age as a gay man. A 90-year-old widower. A broke college student. A spare room that becomes a whole new family. Some men leave a legacy. Martin Reily left a whistle that went viral and a son he never gave birth to.

Please let me know if you enjoy this book as much as I think you will. Those who've been given the book to read have told me it is a "gut punch," but in a good way, and someone even told me they "ugly cried" at the end, even though it was a thoughtful, tender take on how love lives on forever.

Thank you! Gunther Allen

FYI - The release date for "Something About Martin " was extended by a couple of months because I had heart surgery and am in the process of moving to Colorado. I needed to do a final proofread after the editor's changes to make sure it was ready for the public. Luckily, I waited to proofread and found several editing mistakes that have been fixed, and now I'm just waiting for my publisher to release the next batch of books. I believe it will be in October or November now. I'll keep you posted. You can find my other published book on Amazon. Here is the link: https://www.amazon.com/s?k=gunther+allen
