Blurb: Being in the closet is safe for an ex-military man like Josh – lonely, but safe, especially since he has five-year old Seth to bring up by himself. His life is orderly, and his decisions firm, and based solely on keeping it that way. When Josh meets Brett, an out-and-proud divorcee with a daughter the same age as Seth, Josh never expects his heart to begin making all the decisions.
From first meeting and through the years that follow, one thing becomes certain for the two men and their children – while their lives may be problematic from time to time, they’ll never be lonely again.

Reviewer: Leigh
Review: This book is the combination of four short stories that were originally part of a series called A Forever Family published in 2008 and 2009 from what I could find out. Although I am not going to review it that way. Because honestly they flowed very well as one book.
I liked the story of Josh and Brett. They are both parents of two adorable little children. They meet when dropping their children off for the first day of school. From there they develop a friendship over coffee and children play dates. Until finally they both admit how they feel for each other and take it to the next level.
There was a nice pace to their relationship. Nothing was rushed. They Fall in love with each other as they deal with the everyday stuff, as well as homophobia, and family troubles. Together they form a tight-knit family unit.
Good enjoyable read.
