About the author

B. J. Smyth writes spicy, emotional MM romance filled with possessive older men, jealous lovers, and the kind of heartache that hurts so good. His stories explore age gaps, and broken boys who just need the right man to put them back together.

He’s obsessed with writing characters who fall hard, fight dirty, and love fiercely — often with a little drama, a lot of spice, and just the right amount of angst. Whether it's a hot daddy, a manipulative ex, or a jealous flatmate causing trouble, B. J. delivers romance that’s raw, real, and impossible to put down.

When he's not writing, he's probably plotting the next book over coffee, binge-watching queer dramas, or getting inspired by TikTok thirst traps.

If you're here for the spice, the feels, and the messy men who fall hard and fast — you’re in the right place.

This book made my jaw drop, was not expecting what happened, but glad it did. David is such a sweet guy and he seems amazing with Bradley.

David's story continues and it doesn't disappoint it just continues and gets better with each story. The title says the plot and it is everything a Valentines story would want. I look forward to each new chapter in this story and it does not disappoint. It is an extremely quick, glorious read.

David has really gotten his HEA now. Bradley has asked David to marry him and they will be starting their lives soon.

Another layer in the David series. This one gives us David an Bradley's first Valentines together. Bradley deserves a million best boyfriend points for the date.
Adult read

OMG the best David book yet!
David knows he loves Bradley and Bradley has told him time after time that he loves him but Davids still got insecurities thanks to his ex Craig.
David hates leaving Bradley to even go home so when Bradley goes away with work for two days David misses him so much. David has lunch with Mandy and a drink with his friend Brian they both tell him to speak with Bradley tell him his feelings. Later that day Bradley calls and he falls more in love with him.
Bradley keeps telling David he has a surprise and when he gets back what a surprise it is. He leads David down to the basement where things sure get hot!
Valentines day Bradley takes David out for the day keeping everything secret. He takes him to the London Eye and they have the whole pod to themselves with a table set for dinner! After dinner Bradley tells David again he loves him and follows up with asking him to marry him!
Can David put all those insecurities aside and say yes to Bradley?
I finished this book with happy tears and look forward to my next David fix!

I have had a David & Bradley binge this week and I’ve been thrilled, excited, concerned for them, and a lot hot under the collar!
This adorable couple have taken a little piece of my heart and have restored my faith in true love and soul mates- this episode shows Bradley spoiling David on Valentine’s Day whilst trying to get to the bottom of what is bothering him... despite this there is no histrionics just adult conversations and discussion which again is very refreshing to see.
If you want an easy read, a true feel good book then please give these books a go because they really have left a huge smile on my face!
Now we wait for book 6.... bring it B.J Smyth cause I’m ready!

4.5 stars.. Another beautiful story for David an Bradley with only 4 days til valantines day. Bradley was planning a surprise for David but won't give away any clues. They been seening each other for 9 months..but old haunts still remind David of what Craig did. ooh i definitely love his choices in music. Hot sexy scenes. Fantastic surprise for David and a great ending cant wait to read the next story. 
The overuse of the word capsule near the end kinda spoilt for me.

I loved reading more about David and Bradley!

Valentines is another sweet, smoking hot, short story about David and Bradley. I've found all of the stories to be very romantic as well as hot and sexy. Bradley is everyone's dream man and I read romance/erotic romance to experience the fantasy and dream that real life doesn't always provide.

I'm eagerly awaiting the next story in this series.

I read this book through KU.

Love this new installment in the David series. It's a sweet Valentine's story with David and Bradley. David still has insecurities no matter how much Bradley reassures him. But they have a wonderfully romantic Valentine's! Looking forward to the next chapter.
I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book.
