Sequel to Chaser The character you loved to hate in Chaser becomes the character you will simply love in Raining Men. It's been raining men for most of Bobby Nelson's adult life. Normally, he wouldn't have it any other way, but lately something's missing. Now, he wants the deluge to slow to a single special drop. But is it even possible for Bobby to find "the one" after endless years of hooking up? When Bobby's father passes away, Bobby finally examines his rocky relationship with the man and how it might have contributed to his inability to find the love he yearns for. Guided by a sexy therapist, a Sex Addicts Anonymous group, a well-endowed Chihuahua named Johnny Wadd, and Bobby's own cache of memories, Bobby takes a spiritual, sexual, and emotional journey to discover that life's most satisfactory love connections lie in quality, not quantity. And when he's ready to love not only himself but someone else, sex and love fit, at last, into one perfect package.… (mere)

In Chaser, the previous book in this series, the villain of the piece is Bobby who loves Caden so much that he tries to sabotage Caden’s love affair with another man. Making Bobby the protagonist of the sequel is a risky step for Reed to take, but he makes it pay off in spades.

Although he’s forty, Bobby still looks young enough to turn men’s heads—or at least that’s what he tells himself as he goes through rounds of sexual encounters, sometimes numbering in the dozens a night. He still loves Caden even though Caden has moved on and refuses to speak to him. All Bobby wants is sex. Pure. Simple. No attachments. No promises.

As it seems many gay men do, Bobby feels like he’s been a disappointment to his father, not being man enough even though Bobby is a marketing executive, successful enough to own a swanky apartment, designer clothes, and a lavish lifestyle. When his father dies unexpectedly, Bobby is stunned.

At the funeral, Bobby meets an old high school acquaintance, who having lost a lot of weight, is now strikingly handsome and buff. But Wade, as a volunteer with the Lifelong AIDS Alliance passing out condoms, has seen Bobby voluntarily having sex with a string of strangers at a gay club. Despite that, he still thinks of Bobby as one of the “nice” ones, one of the high school kids who hadn’t made fun of him or tormented him, and wants to get to know him better.

Reflecting on his life, Bobby realizes all he wants is love from one really good friend, the kind of closeness he had with Caden. However, as Bobby renews his acquaintance with Wade, the man tells him what Caden told him before: Bobby needs professional help. When Bobby sees a psychologist, she tells him he is a sexual addict, trying to cover up problems with meaningless sex, and should attend Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA). Bobby follows her advice and meets Aaron there, who’s a sounding board whenever Bobby needs one.
