For the most part, I enjoyed this book. It's the first I've read of David Lawrence.
I liked Daniel and Luke, together and separately. I did think at points, Daniel was using his greater age over Luke to get what he wanted, but I don't think he was doing it deliberately, or maliciously.
It's steamy and smexy, plenty of that but I did find the romance element lacking. As a reader of romance, I do like a more in depth romantic element, to go along with the smexy stuff.
I did like the twist at the end! Clarence, Daniel's ex, was a thoroughly nasty piece of work, but he does come around to Daniel moving on, and does redeem himself somewhat.
Apart from the above mentioned, the story is well told and well written. I found the character development very good. It is a little long winded in the beginning, but it does pick up and then runs away with itself.
I saw no editing or spelling errors to spoil my reading.
I'd like to read something else by this author, he's on my radar now.

A Sky Full of Stars

⭐️⭐️⭐️
When Alex married Lisa, she gave his life meaning. He no longer felt alone in the world – beneath his tough exterior she saw someone she could love. And soon, Alex, Lisa and their young son Connor made up a happy little universe.
But then Lisa dies unexpectedly, and their perfect world is destroyed. Alex is shattered by the loss, and overwhelmed by the difficulties of being a single father to a six-year-old. How can he and Connor carry on without Lisa guiding their way?
Just as Alex fears the darkness might overwhelm him, he discovers that his wife had a secret: there was a side to Lisa that he never knew. It seems that, even after she’s gone, Lisa is lighting the way for Alex… but is he brave enough to take it?
This was good I did enjoy it I wouldn’t have normally picked it up I had it in a subscription box but I’m glad I did. The story is so heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time. You see how all these lives are affected because of one accident. Really nice read.

I was thrilled to be back in Jackie’s presence for this book. The set up was fun, and I quickly got caught up in the story. I thought I had the villain pegged early on, but I turned out to be wrong. Still, everything made sense when I was done. The characters are great, new and old alike. One of the supporting characters gets a chance to shine, and I liked the growth we saw for Jackie. We also get some humor, including puns, which I enjoyed. There are 10 recipes at the end featuring lentils, from the traditional soups to the more creative. If you are looking for a great book that is a fast read, you’ll be glad you picked up this book.
