Review

Another wonderful addition to a favourite series. It has everything you could want from a Lucy Lennox story - humour, wacky aunts, gorgeous human beings (inside and out), and plenty of beautiful love. This whole series is built off of found family…a family that keeps growing in such tremendous ways.

There are a lot of wild antics but there is also plenty of stirring emotions. Dante’s life before the Marian’s is heartbreaking, and AJ’s involvement as a real-life superhero is beautiful. As is their connection.

I loved Dante learning to own his past, and take control, but I also appreciated the support he took from AJ in the process.

It’s going to be really sad when I’ve finished this series.

If you're into audiobooks, be sure to check out this one. Michael Dean really seems to get Lucy's writing style and humour.

Synopsis

AJ: I know Dante’s story better than anyone. After all, I was the one who rescued him from his homophobic, abusive father eight years ago. Since then, I’ve kept my distance, but when I run into him at the Marian House gala and he doesn’t recognize me, I can’t resist the incredible, sensitive man he’s become.

I would do anything to protect Dante Marian, but what if his past keeps me from being part of his future?

Dante: Every new relationship has obstacles, it just turns out that ours involves my bumbling inexperience (ugh), an octogenarian naughty toy party (don’t ask), and being on the run in an RV with Aunt Tilly (it involves the Secret Service— no really, don’t ask).

When my biological father takes his homophobic views on a national platform, the only way to stand up for what I believe in is to claim my past and confront him. So now it’s time to decide: do I put the past behind me and walk away from AJ for good or face my biggest fear and fight for what’s mine?

Fair warning: Dante and AJ’s story contains frequent detailed scenes of man parts touching, little old ladies being inappropriate (this time with, ah, props), and two hearts finding their HEA when they least expect it.

While it can also be read on its own, Delivering Dante is the sixth in the Made Marian series. Each book tells the story of one of the Marian brothers' search for true love.

Trigger Warning: Delivering Dante includes references to domestic violence and conversion therapy.
