Review

Ah man, Andi really knows how to bring all the emotions and trauma. And I’m completely here for it. Both Paul and Brendon have been through it, which makes their beautiful friendship all the more wonderful.

"Nothing has ever felt as right as this moment, with this man, in this room. He's my everything. And that terrifies me. I'm so gone for this boy."

Both of them have some self-esteem issues due to their trauma. Paul doesn’t believe he could be enough for someone to love and stick around for and Brendon is constantly worried he’s too much to love. While they try to be what the other needs they are also blinded by their own fears. Until they finally do see.

I loved their dynamic even if completely codependent. They got exactly what they needed to feel loved and wanted. It healed parts of them.

"He keeps me grounded but lets me fly."

There is no doubt these beautiful men will have lovely and exciting forever.

Synopsis

I’ve been in love with my best friend for years.

The problem?

He thinks I’m straight.

And now that I share a dorm with him, his insistent need to cuddle -and lack of clothes- are blurring the careful lines I’ve drawn.

I'm struggling to keep my defenses up.

I love him but I’m afraid.

Afraid I’m not enough to make him stay.

Afraid he’ll rip my heart out.

Afraid he won’t love me back.

But I see a side of him no one else does.

In the security of our room, he lets his mask fall.

Lets me hold him.

Something lurks in the dark recesses of his mind that keeps him from going all in.

He’s just as hesitant about this as I am, but I don’t understand why.

Can I convince him to let me love him the way he deserves…

or will he take my heart and run away with it?

About Andi Jaxon

Sarcastic and snarky, I love to laugh and read dark fucked up shit. I write about tortured pasts and hot sex, a happily ever after that has to be worked for. My stories tend to be a little dark but with some comic relief, typically in the form of sarcasm and usually include two men falling in love though I sometimes dabble in other LGBTQIA stories.

I am probably one of the most random people you will probably ever come in contact with. My favorite accessory is rainbows, big hoop earrings, and fake eyelashes (I only recently learned how to put them on). I always have coffee on hand so I can try to keep up with the three minions I’ve created.

I married a sexy man in uniform who let me spawn and am now raising a mutinous army of hell raisers that I created myself, all while he defends our country. I drink too much coffee and am sexually frustrated for your freedom. If you see me online, I'm probably sitting in a closet, hiding from my kids.

I have a ridiculous addiction to Archer, Sherlock, Supernatural, and The Big Bang Theory. I live my life spewing TV quotes and sarcasm. I'm a self confessed ass, not easily offended, and I love to laugh, almost as much as I love sleep. My laundry is rarely folded or put away and I have probably only showered once this week.

I hate schedules and planning, I have calendars, planners, and my phone yet can’t remember anything. Somehow, I’ve managed to keep 3 kids alive but I really need to become an adultier adult.
