Review: The Journal Of Sanctuary One by R.J. Scott 4 of 5 stars

The Journal Of Sanctuary One









The Journal Of Sanctuary One by R.J. Scott
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

In the days leading up to Christmas, Jake Callahan retreats to a remote cabin seeking solitude, only to be thrust into a tense and intimate survival scenario when Sean—a wounded stranger with a mysterious past—breaks in, fleeing danger and guided only by a cryptic clue from his father’s journal. As a snowstorm traps them together and enemies close in, Jake and Sean must navigate not just external threats but the emotional scars they carry. What begins as suspicion slowly transforms into trust, and the spark between them ignites into something deeper. In the heart of winter, surrounded by danger, they discover that love might be the only thing strong enough to save them both.

I loved this story with the danger, drama and passion. The snowstorm created physical isolation, but it also striped away distractions and defences.  The dynamic between Jake and Sean evolves from suspicion to mutual reliance, highlighting how trust is earned through compassion and shared danger. The story delved into how identity is shaped by both what we remember and what we uncover—and how confronting the past is essential for healing. Set during Christmas, the story uses the season’s symbolism—rebirth, reflection, and warmth—to underscore its emotional arc. Despite the cold and threat, the cabin becomes a place of renewal, where love offers a second chance and the possibility of peace. Easy to read, feel and understand. This was an MM story with mature content.
