My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Calvin Abernathy is perfectly content with his no‑strings, no‑kids lifestyle — until a tragic accident leaves him the guardian of his friends’ grieving fourteen‑year‑old son. Completely out of his depth, he turns to his hot, infuriating neighbor Seth for help. Seth has always thought Calvin was a jerk, even if an annoyingly attractive one, but he agrees to step in for the boy’s sake. As the two men grow closer, their friendship starts to blur into something deeper, complicating Seth’s new relationship and forcing him to confront what — and who — he really wants. When red flags appear with Seth’s boyfriend, the choice becomes clear: it’s Calvin he trusts, and Calvin he’s falling for.
This story had such a strong, undeniable pull between Calvin and Seth — the kind of connection that only grows deeper as their lives and families slowly merge. Watching them navigate everything from Seth’s increasingly troubling boyfriend situation to Calvin suddenly becoming guardian to Braeden added so many rich layers to their relationship. The emotional stakes were high, and every feeling was beautifully described and easy to connect with. I loved how their bond shifted from irritation to friendship to something much more meaningful, all while juggling kids, grief, healing, and the messy realities of starting over. Braeden’s storyline in particular brought so much heart, grounding Calvin in ways he never expected. A heartfelt, emotional read, and I can’t wait to see where this series goes next. This was an MM story with mature content.
