Eli hasn't been home since he left at eighteen with a heart aching from his best friend's rejection and his father's intolerance. But when his father reaches out, Eli figures it's time to make peace with his family. He doesn't expect to come face-to-face with Turner too -- or to learn that the straight friend he'd foolishly loved is actually bisexual -- but once the shock wears off, he knows exactly what he wants for Christmas.
Turner's life isn't everything he'd once planned, but he's happy to be the shoulder his loved ones lean on. They keep him busy, which is just as well since none of his dates have really clicked. He hasn't been able to connect with anyone the way he did with his former best friend. When Eli shows up for the holidays after years away, Turner doesn't know what hit him. But he knows one thing: This time, he wants to give Eli a reason to stay.
All I Want Is You is a friends to lovers, second-chance romance with an HEA.
Review
My Rating - 4 Stars!
All I Want Is You, by DJ Jamison, is a heart-warming Christmas romance.
Eli's returning home with his tail between his legs after losing his job. He's shocked to discover his ex best friend is working with his dad. Eli and Turner have a sorted past since a kiss caused them to part eight years ago.
Eli's back and wants to make amends, with both Turner and his own dad. Everyone is well developed and very likable. There's anguish, forgiveness, and a second chance. There's a chance for romance and a chance for father and son to forgive and rekindled their relationship.
It's an emotionally charged and heartfelt romance. I was hooked immediately and couldn't stop routing for these men to get together. It's definitely something I'd recommend to anyone looking for a sweet holiday story.
Excerpt
Turner kissed him, and Eli’s heart exploded into a frantic pace. Turner’s lips were on his, finally. And all his anger, all his disappointment washed away on a wave of endorphins.
This felt right. It was as if he’d been holding his breath for eight years, and he could finally exhale.
But it was over too soon. Eli hadn’t gotten a taste of Turner’s tongue, the kiss quick and chaste. He hadn’t gotten to run his fingers through his hair. Hadn’t put his hands on him at all.
Nothing but their lips had touched, and it was the single, best kiss of his life.
“I’d like us to be friends again, real friends,” Turner said. “Even after you leave again for California.”
Oh, right. Eli would be leaving. Turner would be staying. Nothing had changed.
His racing heart slowed. Grew heavy. Thudded hollowly.
“Friends,” he repeated.
“I know you’re not staying long,” Turner added. “So, it’s just a kiss. Between friends.”
“A friendly kiss,” Eli said.
Turner chuckled. “Yeah.”
“Okay,” Eli said.
And yet he sensed something more between the lines of Turner’s spoken words. Honesty, yes, but also yearning. Could it be possible that Turner wanted him as much as he’d always wanted Turner?
There was only one way to find out.
Eli wrapped a hand around the back of Turner’s neck, tugged him close, and kissed him hard. If he was only getting one kiss, he was going to make it count. He was going to kiss the daylights out of Turner and decide for himself how much Turner Williams wanted Elijah Harp.
Author Bio
DJ Jamison is the author of more than a dozen m/m romances, including the Ashe Sentinel series and the Hearts and Health series. She writes a variety of queer characters, from gay to bisexual to asexual, with a focus on telling love stories that are more about common ground than lust at first sight. DJ grew up in the Midwest in a working-class family, and those influences can be found in her writing through characters coping with real-life problems: money troubles, workplace drama, family conflicts and, of course, falling in love. DJ spent more than a decade in the newspaper industry before chasing her first dream to write fiction. She spent a lifetime reading before that, and continues to avidly devour her fellow authors' books each night. She lives in Kansas with her husband, two sons, two fish and, regrettably, one snake.
