This was such a sweet story and fantastic narration! I listened to it in one go.

So sweet!

This book was adorable and steamy and just everything I wanted. There were definitely moments that had me tearing up as Marvin dealt with fears that I can very much relate to and that just made me root for them so much more. I loved it.

So cute

I love MM books but have only ever read darker themed romance/erotica styles. This is my first MM rom-com and it’s definitely one of my favorites! The story line was sweet and funny and I was giggling the whole way through. Such a great story and the characters just felt so relatable! Also had the perfect amount of spice 🔥 10/10 recommend!

Such a cute, funny book!

I honestly didn't know what to expect out of this book. This is my first book from this author. I can 100% say it will not be the last.
This is the sweetest story. I fell in love with Mr. Block. He is the kindergarten teacher ever child deserves. He is so kind. His kids are everything to him and obviously they all adore him. I love his friendship with one of the other teachers, Jill. They are a hoot together.
Then walks in Mr. Stone with his daughter Illona. Illona will be in Mr. Block's class. All the teachers and parents can see how gorgeous Mr. Stone is but he quickly starts flirting with Mr. Block.
Marvin (Mr. Block) and Olan (Mr. Stone) start down a path of a relationship, hooray, but past lives of addiction get in the way. The author obviously knows a lot about the addiction (or did amazing research) and I can say being 16 years sober he did an phenomenal job with the subject.
I just get all the good feels about this story. There is spice, but not over the top. All the characters are well written. I love the found family, forgiveness of oneself and others.

The sweetest Love story

So Good!

The spicy portions of this story were really well done, but I found myself in love with the characters, their stories, and the writing in general. I got lost in this book so many times. Beautifully done.

More than just steamy

I really liked the book and the author (and narrator) did a great job of making the characters a bit more REAL with great backstory interwoven throughout the entire story! My biggest issues was that everything was SO overtly “politically correct” - asking for consent for seemingly every interaction. The “let’s make sure we get tested before we don’t need ******* (prophylactics)” even tho is both characters wouldn’t have needed that based off the authors backstories for each of them. The best friend character Jill was hysterical and I loved their representation of her. Funny, modern and sexy - I very much enjoyed this book!!

Perfectly PC Gay Romance…

This is such a cute single dad & teacher romance .
Marvin is such a dork and u love to root for him . I do think this is worth a read.

Unfortunately , towards the end he comes off as judgmental & insufferable. He really irritated me.
Luckily Olan is very patient.

The last third of the book dragged and Because of this i knocked off a star.
Also, do u ever feel like a couple probably broke up after the book ends? Yea…


The smut is pretty high for such a cutesy cover

Good audio 🎧

Cute
