Forged (The Art of Love Book 4) Kindle Edition

The Art of Love is awakening to things you never knew about yourself with someone you thought was just a friend….

Nick Turner has always been the big, shy, silent type. He’s always let his metalwork and blacksmithing skills speak for him. But now, as a widower with two small children to raise in the midst of the eccentric Hawthorne family and a sculpture that needs completing to make the deadline for a national competition, he knows he’s in over his head.

Thank God for Baxter Hawthorne dropping into his life…

Bax Hawthorne is the black sheep of his family. He’s an accountant in a sea of artists. But that doesn’t mean he’s not just as free-spirited and ambitious as his kin. The one thing he never thought he’d be, however, was a father. But when he’s thrown into proximity with Nick and ends up helping to take care of his kids in a pinch, all that might change.

Nick could have sworn he was straight, but the closer he gets to Bax, the more he questions that. Could one night of sparks between them end up forging a bond that brings the whole family together?

Forged is a low-angst, single father, bi-awakening, friends-to-lovers story filled with heart…and a lot of meddling by the eccentric Hawthorne family. Look for a cameo by The Brotherhood as well!

    5.0 out of 5 stars A 'Forged' Relationship!⁵
    Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2025
    Nick and Bax have an intense relationship. It is one which rocks the boat for Nick who is still coming to grips with the death of his wife and we find him having to bring up his 2 young children which isn't an easy task but it is a loving one.
    I loved their instant awareness of each other, their friendship, their passion and the way they sort out who and what they want in life and in love.
    It is a beautifully written love story, one which I am delighted to have read an early copy of. My voluntary review is recorded above.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Accountant Meets Blacksmit
    Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2025
    Accountant Bax is the out one in his unapologetically bohemian and queer family. While he's got a straight laced job, he's in no way a straight laced guy. He's a practicing pagan living in a world of adults and adult pursuit. He has no want to settle down and have to share a lover with anything else. Bax comes home to Hawthorne House to regroup after leaving his partner and coven, and that's where he gets reacquainted with his cousin's widower, blacksmith Nick. Nick is trying to hold his life together by a thread. He's juggling trying to be the best single dad he can be while teaching classes, working on his art, and trying to keep his mother at bay. She is begging for him to give him the kids to raise away from the liberal influences of his in-laws. It's never explicitly said in the book how he identifies, but Nick has never had many sexual attractions before his wife and now Bax. And he doesn't have much experience in relationships which makes him a bit insecure. There is no doubt that they have a strong connection and attraction, but they wonder if that's enough to make it work. I loved how their different personalities came together and how sweet they are to one another. There is also no lack of spice in the book. I like the group of characters in this series, it's fun to see them across the stories. Would recommend.

    I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

    Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2025
    Wonderful story of Nick Turner, blacksmith/artist and Bax Hawthorne, accountant in the artistic Hawthorne family. This bi-awakening/true-self discovery is all you want in a romance. Couldn't stop reading.
