Just Drive by L.A. Witt
5.0
For Sean, the attraction is instant because ... reasons
Sean is driving a cab part-time while he finishes school. His latest passenger, heartbroken from a recent breakup, asks Sean to "Just Drive".
Before the night is over those words have lit sparks in both of their lives.
But it has to be a one-night stand right? After all, Paul hasn't been in school for a very long time.
There's a 20 year age gap, but those sparks seem to have lit a fire that neither of them can stay away from. If that were the only issue, they could make a go of it. But there's a much bigger issue.
...I did not anticipate that!...
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this love story. It brought back memories of another time. A time that young people today are not familiar with. The generation gap has never seemed so huge.
It also clued me in on military life and what dependents are and live through. There was a poignant scene between Sean and his Dad which literally brought me to tears.
Overall, I felt quite emotional reading this one. I fought off tears several times. Maybe it's never too late. And maybe the right decision isn't always the most obvious one.

Note to self - don't check out passengers if you haven't gotten laid recently.

This kid doesn't remember presidents you voted for.

It took me four and a half goddamned decades to find you, and you'd better believe you were worth the wait.
