Documentary producer Simon and ex-footballer Declan are taking some big steps toward a lasting life together. They’ve bought a house, and they’ll need it for the family they plan to start. Their friend, Nyssa, has made the generous offer to be their surrogate, and Declan couldn’t be more excited about the idea of a baby.

Simon knows fatherhood is a huge commitment, and though it’s daunting, he sees how much Dec wants it, and he’s sure that together, they can succeed in anything—despite the worries nagging at him.

But just as their new life is taking shape, a health scare disrupts their plans at the worst possible moment. With time running short, Simon and Dec will have to bare their fears and doubts to each other so they can face them before their world changes forever.

It might mean a literal leap of faith.

5 Stars!

It’s been many years since I met Simon and Declan in Tigers and Devils but my love for them never diminishes. As always Simon’s clever wit and snarky repartee had me laughing out loud multiple times throughout the story. Thankfully Declan was still his sweet, strong yet vulnerable self and truly brought balance to the relationship. Of course, that doesn’t mean he didn’t hold his own with the banter, he definitely did.

Tigers On The Way is not just a humorous tale of one of my all-time favorite couples but it’s also chock full of emotion. The ups and downs couples (gay or otherwise) face when deciding to start a family: fertility issues, health issues, public interference and familial obligations, it’s all there and they pull on the heartstrings in some way. I shed a few tears on more than one occasion and had to remind myself it was just a story.

Overall though, this is a great new chapter in the lives of a former “God of Football” and his irascible yet hilarious partner/fiancé. If you’re a fan of the series you have to read T.O.T.W. Both men, their families and friends are at the top of their game and can’t be missed.

4 stars

Tigers On The Way is the 4th book in the Tigers and Devils series by Sean Kennedy. It starts a while after the 3rd book leaves off, so rereading would be a good idea.

Here we see the guys making one of the biggest choices a couple has. At the time of the tale, they cannot get married in Australia, so the next biggest step is kids. Right? After a big health scare, they re-evaluate their relationship and choices.

As usual, Simon was amazing. He is snarky and funny and clearly loves Declan more than anything. And while Declan comes off as aloof, he is a very affectionate guy and doesn’t hide his feelings. They are an amazing couple to read about and I really hope there is more of them. They are the ultimate opposite couple.

I absolutely love this series. Every book is better than the last and this one left off at what I hope is a cliffhanger and not the end. After reading this it made me want to go back and start reading the series from the beginning.

All the characters are quirky and funny. I found myself quickly skimming the interviews towards the middle, though. I really hope we have another book as the ending left me hanging a bit. I cannot wait for what is next.
