Summary:
Matthew Jonathon Parker, Matty to his friends, never did anything spontaneous. Yet six months ago, during a ‘poor-me’ moment, he entered an online chat room and may have met the man of his dreams.
Matthew Jonathon Parker planned every aspect of his day. From the time he woke up until the exact minute he crawled back into bed, his day was set. He wasn’t the kind of man to seek out other men in chat rooms. He certainly wasn’t the type to fall in love with someone he only knew from typed words.
After a six-month online affair, Matty agrees to meet Jay in Florida for a weekend getaway. Only Jay isn’t what Matty expected; although, perhaps he should have known it was too good to be true.
After all, Jay’s screen name AlwaysMJ stands for ‘Always making jokes’–or does it?
The Review:
Always MJ by SJD Peterson is an absolutely charming love story. It is a delightfully fun and sexy read about finding love where you least expect it. It is also a beautiful example of taking a risk and opening your heart to love no matter how great the risk.
Matty Parker is just flat out adorable. He is predictable, logical and quite analytical and the only thing that saves him from total geekdom is his passion for hockey. The only spontaneous thing he has done in his life might just turn out to be the best decision he has ever made. However, Matty is in for the shock of his life when he comes face to face with the man he has been chatting with online for the past six month.
Jay is the complete opposite of Matty. He is a doer not a thinker and he acts on his instincts. Fun loving, life of the party and never taking anything or anyone seriously, Jay is the king of one night stands. That is until he falls for Matty. Now he has to convince Matty to give him the opportunity to prove his love and give their relationship a chance.
Always MJ by SJD Peterson is a wonderful heartwarming romance that will have you grinning from ear to ear as Matty and Jay fight their way to happily ever after. The plot is fresh and unique and an unexpected twist adds another layer to the Matty’s new relationship. The protagonists are marvelously flawed and easy to relate to. There is just enough conflict to keep the story moving at a fast pace and SJD Peterson perfectly wraps up this divine romance with a fabulous epilogue.
Definitely a book for the keeper shelf.
