Of Autumn Leaves and New Beginnings

2019 | Contemporary | LGBTQ+ | Romance

At 47, Oren Walker isn’t looking for love. When he knocks on Pete Higgins’ door, all he wants is to thank him for helping his mom after she broke her femur. He never expected that one look at the man would make his knees weak and heart flutter.

Pete is happy, albeit a bit lonely, after divorcing his wife of twenty years and isn’t looking to replace her. But when Oren shows up, all grateful and handsome and in that fancy suit, the longing for the deep connection of a relationship flares up inside him.

As the leaves turn yellow, Oren and Pete spend a lot of time in honest conversations. Their attraction grows. Will the two men recognize the promise of new beginnings, and take the chance to find the happiness they both deserve?

didn't quite work for me
Independent reviewer for Archaeolibrarian, I was gifted my copy of this book.

Oren goes to thank his mum's neighbour for helping her when she fell, and he falls, HARD! Pete is married, though, right?

So, three things let this book down, for ME.

Strike one
Single person point of view. Only Oren has a say.

Strike two
First person, present tense. Just doesn't work for me.

Strike three
This was a very VERY short book, took me less than 30 minutes to read it. I have no idea why this lets it down, but you know me and my book feelings and this is what I feel!

BUT

Positive one
When Oren and Pete are on the same page for the first time, they are both straight into whatever *this* is between them.

Positive two
Loved Pete's ex-wife's reaction to finding Pete and Oren getting a little touchy feely.

Positive three
Loved the reaction of Pete's kids to their Extra-Daddy.

It is well written, and I saw no spelling or editing errors to spoil my reading. It was a *nice* read. (And you know how I feel about using that word!)

3 good solid stars
