Blurb
He fell from his ivory tower and landed in the gutter.
But Sebastian would rather be homeless and hungry than clueless.
On his way to the food pantry, a guy on his cell phone runs into him and triggers his prickly side. As a sign of goodwill, Louis offers to cook for him. But all Sebastian sees is the privilege he used to have.
This isn’t a fairytale. Louis isn’t Prince Charming. And Sebastian can make it on his own.
But it’s been days since he’s had a hot meal. And a blizzard is coming.
Will Sebastian’s pride be his appetizer?
Socks for an Otter is a heartwarming riches-to-rags MM romance brewed with hurt, comfort, comedy, a second chance at love, age gap, and men from different worlds who will give you all the feels.
Review
My Rating - 4 Stars!
Posy Roberts' Socks For an Otter is a great May to December romance full of hope and healing.
Louis, man who's suffered tremendous loss, is drowning in his grief. Bash meanwhile is a homeless man who takes a dislike to Louis based on his being rich.
What follows is a beautiful story of love and romance, as these two men get to know one another, and fall in love. The character growth in both men is stupendous and they both have much to offer each other.
The author masterfully sheds a light on the important issue of homelessness. The reader is able to understand Bash's struggles, both to survive on the streets, as well as the difficulties to find a job while homeless. This is written with knowledge and purpose, as well as compassion and care.
The author also illustrates the problems with privledge. As Bash was born with privledge, he sees the problems that result in such a status and way of life. This part is tremendously explored.
The writing is great, with a wonderful flow, and great dialogue.
My favorite quote is "...sharing the burdens of our pasts. I'll carry yours and you'll carry mine. And that way we are never alone." This is just beautiful and brought tears to my eyes.
Overall, Socks for an Otter covers a heavy subject, but Posy Roberts manages to make it an easy read; one full of hope.
