Two men. One sweet dream of family and forever.

Gabriel “Bull” del Toro loves his fast-paced globe-trotting job, but aches for an honest relationship and the trust that comes with it. After a few too many heartbreaks, he’s nearly given up hope of finding that special someone.

Until Ben.

Born deaf, Ben is used to working twice as hard for what he wants, but risking a newfound friendship on an impossible dream is scary. After all, there’s one lesson he’s learned: everything is temporary—freedom, friends, even family.

Neither man expects the undeniable spark between them or for every moment together to fuel that connection. For the first time, a happily ever after is within reach, but they must trust that the dream of acceptance, family, and a place to call home is more than a sweet fantasy.

It can be forever.

-----

Although part of a series, this book can be read as a standalone.

Delicious Slow Burn Romance

Beoordeeld in het Verenigd Koninkrijk 🇬🇧 op 17 december 2020

Geverifieerde aankoop

Ben and Gabriel's (Bull) story is every bit as sweet as the title suggests. Ben's been a resident of Halfway House before (we first met him in book 5 in the series), but he ended up with another spell in prison largely due to his trusting nature and difficulty saying 'no'/not wanting to disappoint people. During his second stay at HH the work placement arranged for him is in the bakery owned by Bull's sister...enter the gentle giant wrapped in a bad@ss package.

These two men are absolutely perfect for each other. Ben's kind, gentle and somewhat naive nature speaks to Gabriel's protective streak and need to love and nurture; whereas Bull's innate kindness, patience and loving personality is exactly the kind of person Ben needs to help him grow in confidence and as a person living with a disability (he is deaf).

Overall, this is another very fine piece of work in a consistently good series. It's almost a 5* read for me, but it just felt a little too long in places...it feels to me like another editing sweep could have trimmed it down just a little. However, I still recommend A Sweet Man as a lovely slow burn romance with an age gap trope...4*

Solid writing & decent leads, and not a trope in sight. Reminded me of For A Reason by Jessie G

Beoordeeld in het Verenigd Koninkrijk 🇬🇧 op 18 juni 2020

Geverifieerde aankoop

This book in the series could be read as a standalone, as there are enough hints about the premise of the series to clue new readers in. It's another decent addition and has a couple of really sweet leads - yes, that applies to Bull/Gabriel, the big, tough lead, as well as to Ben, who was such a lovely, innocent person who'd been betrayed by life, the system and by 'friends'.

There was less angst in this book than in some of the others, which isn't a complaint, but it felt like the tale had to be building to something - and the clues were there, cleverly buried so that I didn't suspect - and it all kicked off at about 90% of the tale gone. What reared its head did feel organic but I think that a little more of Bull's time in the military would have helped make the event more believable. It was a catalyst of sorts for the leads to embark on their HEA, and I liked that the latter came some 7 months later, as the tale itself didn't take place over a very long period of time.

This tale, whilst not similar in terms of the storyline, reminded me a lot of Jessie G's For A Reason, one of my all-time fave MM tales. Both alpha leads were nicknamed Bull, were ex military, were strong protector types and both had been longing for something that you wouldn't really expect from the tough-guy type. Both were gentle giants, with big romantic streaks. And, their co-leads were kind of similar too - guys dealt a tough time by family, by circumstances, but who found family.

Not unexpectedly, this tale was pure class from this autobuy author - a tale that felt organic, that flowed, with love - not sex - scenes that were sexy and connecting, and with not one bubble butt or trope in sight. I cannot tell you how refreshing that is, not to have a quota of pop terms/acts/dialogue, etc. dropped in because it's expected. That in itself elevates a tale for me, and this one is one of the best I've read this year, and yes, do judge this series by the gorgeous covers, courtesy of Jaime Reese herself.

Another great addition to this series!

Beoordeeld in het Verenigd Koninkrijk 🇬🇧 op 22 juni 2020

Geverifieerde aankoop

I’ve been a bit fan of this series ever since Jaime wrote A better Man with Matt and Julian. I can still picture Julian when he first meets Matt arriving to look at working in the renovation of the building now known as the Halfway House! Over the years we have met some incredible men looking for a second chance each with their own unique stories.

In this book we meet Ben who is blind and had previously stayed at the HH before falling into bad company and going back to prison to finish his sentence. Now he is just out ready for a fresh start but being blind makes him vulnerable and an easy target.

Bull is tough and scary on the outside but so,loving and protective of his family and friends.

There are quite a few twists and turns and it had me guessing at all times. I loved Watching Ben come into his own whilst wanting to wrap Ben him up and protect him also.

It was great to see the old characters and have bbq at HH like old times.

I look forward to seeing what Jaime has in store for these men in her next book.

A Joy of a Read

Beoordeeld in het Verenigd Koninkrijk 🇬🇧 op 28 juni 2020

Geverifieerde aankoop

A Sweet Man is a different kind of story for Ben and Gabe. It is a slowly developed romance story, from their initial sparks flying meeting to the gentle friendship and finally to their blossoming romance.

Ben's family and previous poor friendships are revealed throughout the tale, the constant let-downs by his sister and those who sought to abuse his good, generous nature. Ben's stints in prison are barely touched upon, only in relevant & brief flashes.

There's a heartstopping, blood-pumping, on the edge of your seat denouement, as a result of Gabe's security business . This only underlines the depth of their emotions and deep seated love for each other.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and it's a keeper for me. I love Jaime Rees's books and she's an autobuy for me.

Truly sweet story

Beoordeeld in het Verenigd Koninkrijk 🇬🇧 op 2 juli 2020

Geverifieerde aankoop

Jaime Reese has done it again, yet another story from the Halfway House series and it's an absolute winner. Ben and Bull are so different and yet they are so ideally suited to each other, both have had their struggles with life and are ready to find the one person who will complete them. Ben is newly released from prison, he's deaf and is alone in the world apart from a callous and unfeeling sister, Bull is a security expert, he is fluent in sign language thanks to a dearly loved but sadly departed grandfather, he has a loving sister but is estranged from his father. Both men long to find that one very special person to make a family with and Jaime Reese has made sure that they find each other. I've loved this entire series and this book is a worthy addition. Highly recommended.
