I really enjoyed the concept of the story line.
Love a good May/Dec
I enjoyed Leo and his brother Kingston, although at times Leo needed a good smack for being so standoffish.
Then you have Professor Graves. Poor guy, unlucky in love and people(especially women) let him down!
So when a date doesn’t show up after Leo helped him prep for it things get crazy and the chemistry sparks from there.
While I did enjoy this book, it felt like there was a few things missing and some parts of the story were rushed. And also definitely some unrealistic parts in their story too.

*I was given an e-arc of this book in exchange for a fair and honest review*
I don't even know where to start with this review without giving too much away. At the start of this book, it moved a little slowly and the interaction between the two seemed strange to me. Well, that changed so quickly.
We have Graves, a well-to-do college professor who is unlucky in love, having trouble getting back into the dating game after his divorce from his wife FIVE YEARS AGO. Leo is a college student that Graves reluctantly rents his basement apartment to. Leo is a serial dater, usually gravitating towards older women. Leo tries to help Graves get back into dating by giving him tips on how to act on his upcoming date, but she never shows up. While watching from the car, Leo feels for Graves and sweeps in to save him from wallowing alone at a table of a very expensive restaurant. After that, the two have to fight the growing attraction they start to feel for each other. They have to navigate though the new and very unfamiliar terrain, but they have one another and the trust and bond they begin to form is so adorable. Leo is scared of his feelings and so is Graves, but mostly because he has close to 20 years on the 19yo college student.
This book was great. The journey was perfection because it wasn't like it was one man that was already OUT, but instead both are very much straight but cannot fight the desire to want to be together. They learn and grow together.
I am eagerly awaiting what I can only assume is Kingston's book next. I have a strong feeling of what I think will happen but I will keep it to myself until Candice reveals the synopsis.
I am definitely a fan of her work and want to read everything else she has written.

DNF, but I'm counting it as read because I read about 76% of the book. This book needs some serious editing, the writing shifts too much, there's a lot of useless dialogue and misuse of words. Also, so much showing! Is honestly a shame because it could've been a great book, definitely up my alley...
I had to stop reading this barely a quarter into it because the thoughtless, uneducated, and frankly flat out stupid discussions the characters kept having about generations and ages was so ignorant and obnoxious that if this had been a paper book I would have ripped it in half and tossed it in the trash.
