Summary

Love, like everything in the universe, cannot be destroyed. But over time it can change.

The hot Texas nights were lonely for Ben before he met Tim Wyman, the man he would one day marry. Now, 20 years later, everything is perfect. Isn't it? 

As Ben struggles with guiding his adopted son toward happiness, he begins to question his own path in life. Tim is little help, pulled away by artistic success and faced with temptation, but true love should be able to overcome such obstacles...if only their struggles ended there.  

Something Like Forever is a love story spanning a lifetime and beyond, as two men discover what it means to be friends, lovers, and so much more.

Superb ending to an amazing story

I went into this book the same as all dying to know more about the characters I’d grown to care for. The ups and downs the madness, the sadness. But that ending had me in tears! I can’t believe it’s all over now. Amazing story from Jay Bell and narrated in the best way possible by Kevin R. Free

Something like a perfect ending.

Perfect ending to the series. Well written and very well performed. Be prepared to cry at the end.

Huge disappointment

I really should have sampled this but as Something Like Summer was so well written and exceptionally well performed this seemed a no brainer to jump onto the final sequel picking up the story of Tim and Ben.

First off the performance is Terrible. How can the narrator have not been given a copy of Something Like Summer to reference. The character voice for Tim is distinctly Homer Simpson so unless later in the book it transpires Tim sustained a mild brain injury this is just a total misjudgement by the narrator. It's embarrassing to listen to. It's like a really fake dad voice put on by a child mocking a parent. The other characters are in the camp / 'go girlfriend' camp which again is vast miles apart from the voicing of the first book. Its impossible to believe the characters are the same.

And from a story perspective it has an edge of an amateur smutty fantasy at times. Perhaps this is a sequel too far and the author is just fatigued by what to write so made it inappropriately lewed in the hope readers get a cheap thrill.

I can't bear to continue with it. I'm 2
Hours in and haven't groaned so often at poor performance and writing in my life. Very unlikely I will persevere to the end and if I could get a refund and buy something else I would.

dreadful

this was like something written by a teenager. over dramatic & painful. I really struggled to finish. this would have been better as a short epilogue.
