A.M. Arthur reminds me every time why I can't stop reading their books. And here is another example of that. This is a quick, sweet read. Joel's life changed a year ago when his health declined and was set back a year on his food truck business that has been his dream for years. But it changes even more when he finally feels well enough to go back home to his business and on again off again lover, as he was staying with his parents while he recuperated, and finds himself homeless and his ex having taken everything they owned together except the food truck. He doesn't know what to do, but then he runs into Isaiah, someone he went to school with as kids but hasn't seen in a long time and is offered a place to stay and get back on his feet. Isaiah is a chef with his own restaurant in Atlanta, but when he gets a call that his estranged father had a heart attack, he goes back home to be by his side. He plans to take care of his dad as he is forced to semi retire while he's recuperating as running a big business is stressful but Isaiah plans on going back to his life in Atlanta when things settle down. But then Joel comes into his life, and as he starts to slowly mend the bond with his dad while also growing closer to Joel, he starts to have questions about where he's really meant to be. Joel is having one of the hardest times of his life and has been betrayed in the worst way so when feelings start to develop between him and Isaiah Joel is afraid of becoming attached as he knows Isaiah plans to leave one day. Yet even only knowing each other for a short time, these men felt a connection that they couldn't ignore, and they showed you that things happen good and bad, but it introduces you to new experiences and opportunities. They were there for each other and believed in each other, and it was beautiful to read. Their romance was sweet and deep but I also really enjoyed reading about Isaiah and his dad and them wanting to be better and have a chance to be that son and father that they haven't been in far too long. It's definitely a great read, and I'm looking forward to more books about Neighborhood Shindig!

Beautiful Story
This is an amazing story about Joel whose life has fallen apart and Issiah who has returned to help his father who suffered a heart attack. The food truck concept was a great story line and I loved the way the A.M. Arthur pulled it all together and I am so looking forward to reading more in this series. I highly recommend this book.
