This was my first age difference story and it was great. I enjoyed the struggles that John had and felt Mark's frustration. The story was perfectly put together and flowed well. Mac was a hoot who added a comic effect to this sweet short. ( )

Very cute May/December romance between John, who is in his midforties, and Mark, who is twenty-five and used to have a crush on John when they were neighbors ten years before they meet again at a friend's party.

Mark is in college and serious about becoming a qualified massage therapist and owning his own business. The more he sees of John, now that they are both adults, the more he is sure that his former crush has changed into more. He is not interested in hookups and ready to settle down, but he is having a devil of a time convincing John that he is serious.

John does feel attracted to Mark, but he keeps telling himself that he is to old for him. Never mind that all the other guys he keeps dating wash out, John is determined that he and Mark can't be a couple. But then Mark suddenly really needs John's help, and things begin t change...

If you like May/December romances and all the angst and concerns surrounding them, if you believe that there are cases where age really doesn't matter, and if you're looking for a sweet read with lots of emotions, then you will probably like this free novella. ( )
