Before Him (Cubs for Rent Book 4) Kindle Edition

by Charity Parkerson (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.5 out of 5 stars 170 ratings

Kevin had given up on life before Jericho. Now he’ll stop at nothing to reclaim himself.

For years, Kevin lived in a full-time Dom/sub relationship with his ex. It was a position his ex used to keep Kevin weak and malleable. Now he’s free from all that, but he’s not whole anymore. He let those years break something inside him that Kevin doesn’t know how to fix. Meeting Jericho changes everything.

Before Kevin, Jericho didn’t date men. He didn’t date anyone. Jericho spent his life focused on his son. Now his son is grown and married, leaving Jericho to find himself again. He thinks working for Cubs for Rent will force him back into the world of single adults. Instead, Jericho can’t stop gravitating toward Kevin. He’s slightly terrified of what that could mean.

Kevin and Jericho are both starting from a place of having nothing to offer. For different reasons, they’re both a bad bet. But sometimes a gamble pays out big winnings. If only one would take the first chance.

    I loved Jericho and Kevin. They make each other better at everything. I could feel Kevins tense personality and Jerichos steady nature hadn't how they both compliment each other. Loved the beginning, in between and of course the ending. Another great Charity Book. Keep writing.

    I really liked Jericho and Kevin’s story. I loved that we didn’t have to wait halfway through the book for them to finally accept they cared about each other. Thank you! An excellent book in the series! Anxious for the next one. Definitely recommend

    I'll admit that I'm a Charity Parkerson fan, and this book doesn't disappoint. I loved both characters, and it was such an emotional ride watching them come together (no pun intended).

    So happy to see Jericho get his HEA. He definitely deserved it. I enjoyed seeing Kevin grow and gain more confidence. Part of me wanted to hate Haven, but I know generally it takes two to breakdown a relationship. Haven's actions may have been bad, but I don't think Kevin was perfect either by the way Haven describes feeling during their relationship. Hoping to see some kind of reconciliation there. I know they won't be besties, but maybe they can both acknowledge they made some mistakes. Looking forward to the next book.

    My this was just wow they started to just be friends but of course every love starts out that way. There was a shocking surprise I so didn't expect you do try to hate Kevin's ex but when you find out about him you can't help but feel for him. Which is why I can't wait for the next book.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Just beautiful, two deserving men find one another perfect.
    Reviewed in Australia on July 3, 2021
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    I really liked Kevin and hoped he would get a story. It was a beautiful story at that too. Jericho was a gorgeous man, full of love and hope and Kevin wanted to be loved so much. They worked beautifully together, I suppose all relationships come down to talking and being honest but if they did that at the start you wouldn’t have a story. The only thing I didn’t get was Kevin and Havens relationship, you needed to know more and it did sound like Kevin still wanted Haven even if he says he didn’t, because he was to mad and focused on Haven. In saying that Jericho and Kevin were so dreamy, I want a Jericho.

    I love Charity Parkerson, the stories have heart, the characters are relatable and there is a good mix of heat, romance and drama. What’s a love story without a little angst!

    Highly recommend this story and this whole series.
