Bernard feels like an outsider in the gay community. Thirty-five, chubby, and hairy, he doesn’t fit the image of the stereotypical gay man. Failed relationships in his past solidify the idea he is destined to be alone.

Rory is struggling with his identity. At thirty-five, he is still single. When he reunites with his childhood friend, his religious convictions and the desire to be with a man clash as he must choose between what the Church taught him is right and what his heart desires.

The two men are forced to face their fears and make a choice. Live alone and accept their fate or take a leap and challenge what they believe.

What I really enjoyed is hearing an MM story that provides an alternative voice through Jole Cannon his book. This is all about larger everyday men in their 30s and going beyond just attraction and action.

This, to me, is all about self acceptance for who you are in body and mind, the ups and downs that entails. That each person has their own journey and timeline for that. That hit home, patterns that are so ingrained that they are hard to cchange or fully come away from.

Finding a group that accepts you as you are and accept help when needed. Create a new everyday with old and new friends and family that see you for who you are.
And most off all move away from toxic relations in any form.

The narration/ voicing to me fits the book. Although at some points to me the accents. came across as a bit much. To me it came across that the narrator was fully emerged in the story. ♡


Heads up: do mind the author his warning about scenes and words used that might be triggers.

Reread as audiobook. A new to me narrator who was very good, and was quite enthusiastic in certain scenes.
Story - 4 stars. A really charming debut book with lovely vulnerable MCs. I particularly liked that they were somewhat older and didn't fit the physical looks which were (and still sometimes are) seen as most attractive. They both seemed somewhat innocent and fairly simple down to earth characters, feeling very realistic to me. The cover fits perfectly. Really looking forward to the next book.

very good
