My Personal Review for Loving Jacob by Lee Brazil

Loving Jacob is a story that will hit every note within you. Get ready for another hit from Lee Brazil.


My Rating for Loving Jacob: 4 Stars and Recommended Read


Meet Malcolm Jenner. He did the correct thing and married Penny, had a son and has a career in law even though he knows he is gay. He has an arrangement with Penny-he can have his flings but be discreet. It works for Malcolm until he spies Jacob at the office finds himself falling into lust with the younger man. Jacob is a young man who knows what he wants. He wants that fairy tale relationship-Prince Charming, white picket fence and a loving relationship. He wanted Malcolm. Both wanted to change the other’s mind on what their relationship should be but sometimes love and life don’t always work the way you want it. 


When I first picked this up, I was eager to see if Lee Brazil worked his magic again and I was pleased to say Yes he did. He created a story that leaves you gasping in shock, sighing over the romance and cheering in the end. Loving Jacob is more than man meets man, falling love and live happily ever after. It's about love & lust, finding one's self when you hit rock bottom and learning that love is more than Disney fairy tales. There is a poignant scene with Malcolm's son that had me sobbing as I prayed Malcolm would find a way to be with Jacob. Lee Brazil delivers a stellar story that touches all your emotions in every possible way. 


 Lee Brazil is a talented storyteller. One that has his readers going “OH MY GOD!” with each story he pens. LOVING JACOB is more than a man meets man, falls in love, sort of story. It’s one where two people have to find their way in a relationship that started out as lust and passion and turns to love even as their relationship becomes more complicated than both anticipate. Lee Brazil does a wonderful job creating flawed, enjoyable characters that the reader falls in love with. Both Malcolm and Jacob have issues that eventually come out to the reader that makes them relateable to me. The story is fast paced and the writing is tight. This is Lee Brazil in his storytelling glory.


I can't wait to see what else this author can conjure up for his readers to enjoy. If you love emotional stories, flawed but enjoyable characters and a fast paced story line, then grab Loving Jacob and settle in for an afternoon reading pleasure.
