Anticipating Rejection (Anticipation Book 2) Kindle Edition

by Silvia Violet (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.3 out of 5 stars 291 ratings
The baker and the one who ran away…

I spent years trying not to think about Del after he left. Now he’s moving back and bringing a daughter no one knew he had.

My plan to avoid him fails when a snowstorm strands us together. Neither of us can deny the heat that sparks between us. He still wants me as much as he did before he fled our small town, but he’s been keeping secrets from me, and I’ve built a new life without him.

I have a café to run, a catering business to build, and a heart surrounded by solid walls. Can Del and I overcome the obstacles between us and have the life we once dreamed of?

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Silvia Violet writes bad boy M/M romance. She can be found haunting coffee shops looking for the darkest, strongest cup of coffee she can find. Once equipped with the needed fuel, she can happily sit for hours pounding away at her laptop. Silvia typically leaves home disguised as a suburban stay-at-home-mom, and other coffee shop patrons tend to ask her hilarious questions like "Do you write children's books?" She loves watching the looks on their faces when they learn what she's actually up to. When not writing, Silvia enjoys baking sinfully delicious treats, exploring new styles of cooking, and reading to her incorrigible offspring.

    5.0 out of 5 stars FULL OF ANTICIPATION
    Reviewed in the United States on July 2, 2019

    What a great place Anticipation is turning out to be. A small town with its small town values is a great place to put down roots. Del ran from Anticipation as fast as he could at 18 and never looked back. Noah who owns the town's bakery, was devastated and heartbroken by Del's loss. Being gay and living in a small gossipy town is hard on anybody. Circumstances beyond his control bring Del home after 5 years. Being gay and returning with his beautiful, outspoken, fearless 3 year old daughter Clarice, shocks everyone. This is a beautiful story about growing up and learning to live again. Learning to trust and showing others how much you've changed. Learning that the love of a precious child can give you the courage to do anything. Noah and Del can have it all if they have the courage to build a future. This is a beautiful story full of horses and an unstoppable, adorable 3 year old. I couldn't put it down. These can be read as standalones. But so far both books have been incredible. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK AND THIS INCREDIBLE SERIES!!!!!

    There is angst for sure, but what do you expect when the boy you loved ran after a night together. Poor Noah and Del have so much to overcome. They do a good job in some ways, but really need to defeat the pain and fear that still lingers from their past. You are rooting for them though and Clarice is a spoiled cutie that is great at getting them together.

    I liked this story and while I know they will pop-up in the next book, I wish this book included a look at them 6 months or so down the road.

    3.0 out of 5 stars sweetly ok
    Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2019
    Del and Noah didn't quite do it for me. Everything seemed a bit too rushed. they got back together too quickly, pushed together too quickly, and maybe they need a good airing of past grievances and resolve their issues. Also, I don't usually mind children but Clarice was too annoying and seemed older then a 3yro

    Del and Noah's first time in high school did not end well, but when they set eyes on each other for the first time in years, the pull toward each other is as strong as ever. Only now there is a sweet 3-years-old daughter in Del's life, and Noah is terrified of being hurt again...

    4.0 out of 5 stars Fun, sweet and light read
    Reviewed in Australia on November 10, 2019
    Verified Purchase
    This was a great 2nd chance romance. Noah and Del haven't seen each other in 5 years, not since Del took off after realising the depth of his feelings for Noah and freaking out. Noah still has feelings for Del - that sort of love doesn't just go away - but he's now the one scared of getting hurt, as he doesn't think his heart could take it again. Now it's up to Del to prove that he is going to stay for good this time.

    As with the first book in the series, this is a fun and light read. Despite their past, there is no angst, just confused feelings. The characters are sweet, likeable and easy to read. This definitely falls into the 'lazy afternoon read' category. Looking forward to Marty and Rob's book!

    Ein schöner 2. Teil der Serie, diesmal geht es um Noah, Del und dessen kleine Tochter. Wieder sehr schön geschrieben und man wünscht den Beiden, das es diesmal zwischen ihnen klappt , ihre zweite Chance. Toll zu lesen, toll geschrieben, nur wieder mal viel zu schnell vorbei. Freue mich schon auf Teil 3.
