Lover’s Journey Series Bundle
by Alina Popescu
"Intense. Touching. Fabulous. Haunting. Riveting."
"A roller coaster of emotions"
Two coming of age, friends to lovers stories complementing each other. Decades of love, friendship, growth, and surpassing hardships.
Live, learn, love, and persevere on Edi and Seba's lover's journeys.
Dawn to Dusk - Book One
Edi's life is made up of precious moments.
That first encounter with Robert in rural Romania at eleven. A summer spent together in the same setting a year later. Their first text exchange in high school. The first sexual experience. The first heartbreak--the second and third and fourth chance. The point of total breakdown and the despair of failing. More love than anyone could have warned him about.
No matter how much time passes, no matter how different their paths, every meeting brings Edi and Robert closer together. Those stolen moments shine brighter than any. Yet loving Robert is not easy, not when Edi wants to be true to himself and is met with dishonesty. Or when Robert keeps parading new conquests and ignores Edi more often than not.
Edi has always loved Robert, but he must decide if his journey leads to or away from his childhood friend. Is it true love or is Edi just unable to let go?
"You'll feel like you've run an emotional gauntlet by the end, and you'll be glad you did!"

MY REVIEW
MY REVIEW
A journey from childhood to adult, it starts off with cute summer afternoons spent in the countryside - then curiosity and sexuality come into play.
Edi is our main man who when holidaying with his grandma in the summer makes new friends - one he finds makes him feel 'funny' Robert. Robert is a little older so holds that mystery to a younger Edi, I loved the name he called Edi 'squirt'. This book follows them into adulthood and the turbulent relationship between the two.
I really liked Edi, he is forever the optimist hoping Robert will stop trying to fit his parent's ideals, he has such patience. Robert, he annoyed me - I believe I was meant to get frustrated with him - all part of the journey.
So as I mentioned this book goes from cute summer fun to sexy bedroom fun.
I'm jumping straight into book 2, keeping my fingers crossed that Robert finds himself - life is too short to pretend to be something you're not!
4 stars

Dusk to Dawn - Book Two
Since he was thirteen, Sebastian's every precious moment was connected to his first crush, Edi. His protector through his toughest school years, Edi has always guided Sebastian's choices. Love, lust, the realization he was gay, his passion for sports and karate, his studies and career of choice, everything in Seba's life is somehow linked to Edi.
Sebastian's love never faltered over the years, not as he challenged himself to catch up to Edi. Nor when Edi's on and off boyfriend, Robert, showed up to wreak havoc in their lives.
Sebastian has shaped his life to revolve around Edi--his friend, roommate, and occasional lover. But is that the right path for him, or should he start a new journey, one that takes him away from Edi all the way to another country? And will running away solve anything in the end?
"Love the characters! Love the storyline! Definitely two must read books!"

MY REVIEW
In book 1 I was so invested in Edi and Robert I hardly noticed Seba (kid), so in a way this book totally derailed my idea of where the story was going, seems Edi was in same boat as me! MY REVIEW
Seba was the youngest of the 3 men in the story so in a way I hadn't noticed him grow up before, even though it was obvious as he moved through the educational system, he was always there for Edi in book 1 offering friendship, support and more! This book made me see him completely different. This really is a journey for all involved, it's sweet, sexy and moving.
4 stars
