Wow, what an emotional, heartfelt book! So much angst all throughout, and I loved it! The characters are so easy to connect with; you can almost feel what they are going through. It kept my attention from beginning to end; I just couldn’t put it down.

Lincoln McCaw is lost, broken, almost a shell of the man he once was. One mistake can change the course of one's life in the blink of an eye … and this is what happens to Lincoln after he causes an accident that leaves a family grieving. After spending six months in the county jail, Lincoln has returned home to help take care of his sister and her kids. But who will help him? How can he let go of the guilt, despair, and aching sadness that has engulfed him?

Jay Miller can’t take it anymore; he is sick and tired of feeling lost, broken, and most of all tired of grieving over his wife that was killed in a tragic car accident. One night after he talks himself into it, he attempts to give into his desires to be with a man, only to realize that man is Lincoln McCaw … the one who caused his wife’s death. Yet it only takes one look at Lincoln and Jay feels like it’s looking into a mirror. Can they both help each other with all the emotions flying around? Not to mention, figure out who is leaving threatening letters to Lincoln, especially when one letter goes too far, putting Lincoln’s niece in danger?

Again, I say wow!! I swear there were moments I couldn’t breathe during certain scenes. The on-and-off again between Lincoln and Jay was very emotional, and real. Tissue box was very close! The grieving families were very raw and strong, making you appreciate every moment. Love, love this book, truly excellent!

I give this 5 stars, Highly recommended!
