Bishop: A True Lover's Story by A.E. Via

5.0

Bishop is the first book in a new series by the fabulous AE Via. I'm still so in love with many of AE's men and I thoroughly enjoyed meeting these new characters who are so different from her others. Bishop is out of prison and trying to get his life back. He's a different man now and he wants to make better choices. He's free, but he's still struggling. He's thirty-two-years old and can't read or write. He's working for his father's landscaping company and he's extremely talented in landscape design. When he meets Edison, he not only wants to get to know him but he wants to be a better man. For himself and for Edison. It's time. Edison isn't a social butterfly, but he's smart, dedicated and very good at his job. It's his life. He's working out, eating right and just being himself. He sees something in Bishop other than a gorgeous bad boy. He's attentive, sexy, smart and serious. Their attraction is quick, but their budding romance is a slow burn. Edison hires Bishop for a landscaping job at his house. They share meals, stories about their lives and get closer and closer. Bishop wants to take his time with Edison physically, he deserves it. This story is packed with emotion, humor and foreplay! Bishop's dad, Mike, is hilarious! He was a very young father and wanted them to be friends. Now he's stepping up and being the dad Bishop needs. Trent, Bishop's best friend cracked me up and I can't wait to learn more about him. Overall, I loved it. I loved the slow burn and the relationship Bishop and Edison formed. I loved watching Bishop become more comfortable, open up and laugh. He's sexy as sin! Edison is so sweet and cute! And I loved that he's a little bigger, and that Bishop loved his body!
