Gibson (The Daddies of River Gorge #3) by Jacki James


 

 

 


 

Blurb:

Tristan Aguilar is keeping a big secret. But there’s one man he can’t hide from any longer…

“Thank you, Daddy.” Three little words uttered in a moment of weakness that have the power to undo all the years of progress Tristan has made as the mayor of River Gorge.

“Thank you, Daddy.” Three little words Gibson Carr had never dreamed he would hear come from his best friend’s gorgeous mouth.

But once the words are out there, Tristan can’t take them back or laugh them off as a joke, because Gibson isn’t having it. He’s wanted Tristan since he was old enough to know what wanting was, and he has no intention of letting fear keep them apart.

Mayor Tristan may have big plans for their small town, but Daddy Gibson has big plans for the mayor.

Come along with Gibson and Tristan as they learn how to navigate a transition from a forty-year friendship to love… all with the added pressure of an election year.

 

My review:

I really enjoyed this story. Mayor Tristan Aguilar is out as gay but he has been hiding something from the town and his best friend large animal veterinarian Gibson Carr. In vino veritas when Tristan, feeling sorry for himself gets drunk he lets his secret out and Gibson is going to take advantage of it and claim his boy.

Two long time friends, fear and lack of communication turn this love story into a cautionary tale for living your best life. I enjoyed watching Gibson find his happiness. I worried right along with Tristan about how the town would respond.

This book made my heart smile.
