THE LATENT LOVERS is the story of the love affair of Robert Hunter and Arn Price. Robert is gay and Arn is curious, interested in Robert but still seeing a girlfriend named Fran. When Arn is forced at a turning point in his life to choose between Robert and Fran, he goes with Robert. Complications ensue.
from Tripod's LIst 60: "LATENT LOVERS is at least not that bad, it is not homophobic. Harry is obviously trying to meet the editor's request, and he never ridicules or judges his characters for their choices. But this was not Harry's forte, and either he or the editor decided this would be the only gay Curt Colman book."
