Once Upon a Second Chance by Davidson King

Can two men weighed down by their pasts find a future with each other?

Once Upon A Second Chance, an all-new age-gap, second chance, M/M romance from bestselling author Davidson King is now available!

Daniel Laverton is a wealthy man who was born into privilege. His family helped build Everlasting Springs, and he spends his days ensuring it prospers. The town is in his veins, the love he has for it keeping him there, happily. In his big house on the top of a hill he resides—just him, his cat, and his past. With middle age knocking at his door and the holidays approaching, loneliness is creeping in.

Aaron Darwin is used to struggling. He lives a moment at a time, traveling in his not-so-trusty car, going from place to place and looking for work. When a huge storm looms, Aaron’s luck goes from bad to worse and his vehicle decides to die. With no shelter, very little money, and a town ahead that is closing down, Aaron has no idea how he will get through this impending disaster.

Perhaps it’s the jingle bells in the air or his own solitude, but there’s no way Daniel can leave the man stranded. When he takes a reluctant Aaron in to hunker down and ride out the storm, the two get more than they bargained for. It is easy for them to see all the reasons they shouldn’t work and overlook all the ways they do, but it is holiday season in Everlasting Springs, a time for miracles and second chances. A time for two lonely men to realize they’ve already received the best gift for Christmas: each other.

Once Upon a Second Chance is a part of the multi-author series Once Upon a Holiday Story. Each book can be read as a standalone and in any order. What links these books together is The Hook’s Book Nook Traveling Library, a library on wheels owned by two old ladies in love.

Once Upon a Second Chance by Davidson King
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Aaron lives a hand to mouth existence. His car is his only friend. When she breaks down outside Everlasting Springs he’s desperate and afraid. Unprepared for a raging snowstorm, he’s rescued by Daniel. Daniel has a fulfilling life in Everlasting Springs. The town is his Touchstone. He’s been other places but Everlasting Springs is it for him.

I really liked the main characters. Daniel, so sure of the world around him and his place in it, just a bit lonely. Aaron sure of nothing at all. Daniel is a truly kind person whose need to help Aaron gives them both what they didn’t know they needed. Their burgeoning relationship was sweet and spicy.

Everlasting Springs has its own personality. The town is full of kind souls and holiday blessings. This book is a sweet, gentle story about love found. No mystery or real angst, just a perfect read for the holidays.
