Same here. I just checked my notifications and saw all of your comments. My reaction was priceless. So happy to know you like Love Is Legal. I think the second book is coming along a lot better though. It's written in a very different perspective in my life. But to answer you, Erik is realizes he (or she) is a transgender woman. Ever since he came out though, he would wear womens' clothing. I wouldn't call it cross-dressing, just androgyny. :P
