Even though I'm a mess and I still don't think I'm good enough for him, I want to date him. I haven't managed to scare him off with my panic attacks, mood swings and no touching rules so I don't think that if I tell him about what happened that night he will stop showing interest. ****** Shy, broken Chase wonders if he'll ever be able to love and trust again, if he'll ever get over the trauma of what happened, if he'll ever be happy again. He was a content 24 year old, rooming with his fraternal twin brother Jesse. They literally could not be more different. Jesse is blonde, confident and straightforward; Chase is brunette, shy and innocent. But when tragedy strikes, Chase becomes a shell of the man he once was and Jesse is determined to protect his twin and help him heal. However, will it be at the cost of Jesse's own blossoming love life? Will Chase actually let Jesse help him? And will Chase finally be able to overcome his trauma and accept the love of the man of his dreams? If healing, family and romance are themes that interest you, then this book might be for you!

It's 1946, San Francisco. A year after the end of World War II. Kelly Rossi does something dumb. No surprise there. Just one of a million dumb things. But this one's a doozy. He's shipped north and east to barren Modoc County in California. Too young to go to real jail, Kelly ends up at ... reform school. Well, you could call it that. It's really just a few buildings out in the middle of nowhere filled with angry, confused and sad boys. Kelly's the kind of fellow who knows how to make his own luck. How to take a bad hand and still win big. His plan is to ride out his two years and do as little as possible. Skate by, don't make waves. Lay low. All of that changes.... when he meets his bunkmate, a sullen, silent boy named Lee Clarke. Kelly can't resist a mystery. He has to find out what makes Lee tick, why he's locked up, and if maybe, just maybe, he has a secret in common with Kelly. A terrible secret. A secret that might help them become friends. Or even...something more. Ha!!! This is my reform school trope book. I've planned it for a very long time. Finally ready to get going. Hope you enjoy the ride! (sorry)
