Blurb: When David invited his best friend along on vacation, he never expected them to fall in love...

Spending four days in a tropical paradise with Jack is a dream come true. For years, David lived a lie and denied his attraction to Jack. Now that they’re together in an isolated Caribbean resort, however, he finally sheds his denial and admits what he really wants—to be Jack’s lover.

Jack is more than willing to introduce David to the life he has always fantasized about. Their sizzling nighttime encounters confirm David’s long-hidden desires. But what will happen when they leave the resort? Will David sacrifice everything to start a new life with Jack? Or will he go back to his old ways and risk losing the best friend he ever had?

Review: Four Days With Jack was exactly as promised. Hesitation, longings, risks, fears, and in the end, taking love the way it comes. The sex is hot, the characters likeable and the writing was easy to read. There weren’t any surprises and that was good for me. The peaks and valleys of the story come from David and Jack coming to terms with their relationship. Their secrets are exposed but those secrets and actions come with consequences. I didn’t love the “dark moment” talked about in books. That pivotal place where the main characters are tested and redeemed for love. Jack had been a good guy throughout the book. He wants David so badly, but he doesn’t pressure—until he’s tested by David’s insecurities and fear. However, in the end David grabs and holds on to a good thing. Their journey is a pleasant read and one I’m sure you’ll enjoy as well.
