REVIEW:

What an enthralling and compelling story this was. I think ‘hurt’ is here the main word.

Jacob will move to England after New Year. He’ll pick up his stuff from the house where he hasn’t been for over two years, sell the rest and just move. It hurts too much. His husband and he lived here but after Ben passed away he couldn’t stay there any longer.
It has also been two years since the last time he visits his friends at the club. He will not enter the Daddy/Mommy part.

Lucas is the new waiter at the club and already managed to spill drinks and break glasses.
After he injured himself Jacob is the one to bring him home.
That’s where he discovers the awful place Lucas lives and he decides to take him to his own home.

A bit fast-forwarding in this journey: Just for the next four weeks Jacob will allow Lucas to explore his state of mind about being a little and where he’s comfortable with or not. Jacob will be his Daddy. Just four weeks than he’ll move to England and will leave Lucas to some other Daddy.

What follows is a time with exploration but also a lot of hurt and oh my goodness I felt it all.
Even though Jacob is kind and caring, he’s not always in the right mindset, and Lucas, the sweet soft boy he is, got hurt on the way. I wanted to slap Jacob, to wake him up.
So prepare yourself, my heart cried for them.

The author did a great job with all the hurt/comfort.
For my pleasure, I would have loved a more prolonged end, where Lucas was less forgiving.
It was all written with a nice, comfortable flow, all fascinating, I couldn’t put this story aside, I had to read on.

The story has a good convincing plot, the Daddy boy parts were emotional and the whole story was beautifully captured and assembled.

A more than wonderful addition to my Daddy/boy shelf.
