Calendar Men #9

Mr. September

Rate this book
Summer fades into fall, but the heat isn't letting up for this calendar man.

Enzo Mueller was glad to help out with the calendar shoot. His little sister, Nat, has been in remission for years and he'd do anything to help find a cure for childhood cancer—even if all he can do is pose for a charity event. That, and work three jobs so he can take care of her since their parents split a long time ago.

But raising a teenager and having a personal life are two things he doesn't think can coexist. He's resigned himself to being alone, aside from Nat, until he gets her through college. After all, no man in his right mind would want to deal with Enzo's crazy work schedule.

Tony met Enzo when he waited on their table. Ever since then, Tony's had Enzo on his mind, and when he runs into him again, something clicks between them. Tony's daughter, Ina, finished her last cancer treatments weeks ago and she's in remission. He's been focused on her since before she was born, but now, one man is making him wonder if it isn't possible to have more in life than he'd expected.

A few things about me...

I am a married mom of four who spends most of the day writing, either on stories or at the blog. I love to write as much as I love to read. I am generally quiet and laid back, choosing to let things slide off me rather than stick and irritate me.

And it's really hard trying to think of descriptives for myself, so I'll just let y'all e-mail me or comment at the blog if there's something specific you'd like to know, and spare you from reading a boring bio:D

Have I told you how much I am enjoying the Calendar Men series by Bailey Bradford?? It's an awesome series and well worth your time to check out! Mr. September is up and this is Enzo's story!

Enzo is a hard working man! Working three jobs to give his sister the kind of life he thinks she deserves. She's fought off cancer for gosh sake! But his sister wants him to have a life too! Only there is really no one that has caught Enzo's eye....except maybe Hector's friend Tony. He met Hector while doing the charity calendar for cancer, and then Tony, at the restaurant where he works.

Enzo has caught Tony's eye too! He has noticed him more than once when his daughter, Ina, loves eating at the restaurant Enzo works in. Tony ends up coming to the restaurant by himself a few times just to see Enzo. Does he have a clue how he would like to get to know him??

This is a quick story, but I found it to be packed with so much within this cover! The story is intriguing and I could feel the chemistry oozing from these two men! Not a lot of angst-which I am a fan of, just a good story of two guys trying to make a relationship work amongst the pressures of being an adult. I loved it!

Summer fades into fall, but the heat isn’t letting up for this calendar man.
Enzo Mueller was glad to help out with the calendar shoot. His little sister, Nat, has been in remission for years and he’d do anything to help find a cure for childhood cancer—even if all he can do is pose for a charity event. That, and work three jobs so he can take care of her since their parents split a long time ago.
But raising a teenager and having a personal life are two things he doesn’t think can coexist. He’s resigned himself to being alone, aside from Nat, until he gets her through college. After all, no man in his right mind would want to deal with Enzo’s crazy work schedule.
Tony met Enzo when he waited on their table. Ever since then, Tony’s had Enzo on his mind, and when he runs into him again, something clicks between them. Tony’s daughter, Ina, finished her last cancer treatments weeks ago and she’s in remission. He’s been focused on her since before she was born, but now, one man is making him wonder if it isn’t possible to have more in life than he’d expected.

Tony is a busy working dad. He always knew he wanted to be a father so got a surrogate lined up once he turned thirty. Ina is his sunshine, and since she survived cancer, her daddy knows all about the Calendar Men. Enzo is Mr September, goaded into posing by his friend Hector who we met earlier in the series. Enzo is an archetypal mr good-guy. He’s been raising his little step sister since he was fifteen. He’s put his whole life on hold for Nat and works three jobs to send her to a good school. He likes Tony when they met (as Enzo is waiting his table) and each time they come across each other the spark lights up. Tony finally gets up the courage to ask Enzo for a ‘date’ (ie hookup) and the sparks fly!

Overcoming their pride, busy lives and ghosts from their pasts is quite a challenge but this charming book is much like the others in the series: short, sweet, sexy, hot shifters included, and a super perfect HEA.

Recommended!

I was given a copy of the book in exchange for an honest review.

This was a great little story about two men who have spent the last few years of their lives taking care of someone they dearly love. Tony is a single father, who’s young daughter finally beat her fight with leukemia. He has been secretly pinning over Mr. September, Enzo. He seems to be running into him a lot, at his daughter’s favorite restaurant and the gas station. Enzo has also noticed Tony and his young daughter Ina, but between his three jobs and looking after his 17 year old sister, he doesn’t really have time for dating. Things finally come to a head when Tony shows up at the restaurant alone, and both men admit to the attraction burning between them.
I haven’t read any of the previous books in this series and it is fine as a stand alone. I was a little shocked that this ended up being a shifter book. Maybe shifters play a bigger role in the previous books but here it seemed out of place. Its only mentioned a few times and even then its almost like an after though. Aside from that I enjoyed this book overall. The chemistry between the two men is off the charts. I will definitely be going back and reading the previous books in the Calender Men series.
