All I Want Is You


Got through a bunch of the downloaded books on my Kindle app. Now we're getting through a bunch of the Kindle books on my wish list. Next, we've got D.J. Jamison's "All I Want Is You."

["One kiss under the mistletoe destroyed a friendship. Will another Christmas kiss remake it into something better?

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."]

In between humming along to "All I Want For Christmas (Is You)" and imagining my own perfect-Hallmart-snowy-romance, I read this beautiful novella. At least they got their happily ever after (eventually--idiot boys).

God, these two were cute. They resisted for like...two whole days, if that, before they caved to their obvious connection and rocky history and fully accept (well, they didn't fully accept it right away, but they did eventually) the love they shared.

Obvious trigger warnings for homophobia and bigoted language.
