Two boys, two separate paths, one with an uncertain future and one with a fate already sealed with violence. A secret relationship built on the fear of being discovered, and their desperate need to hold onto the only love they've ever experienced. Loving in the dark fueled them, and fear of being exposed shaped them. It was supposed to last forever, until the inevitable future they were desperately trying to outrun caught up to them. Max Harris "a burden, Unwanted, a waste of flesh and bone, unlovable" I've heard it all. Living in a house with an emotionally absent father and a sadistic, narcissist of a stepmother was my own version of hell. I tried my best to shield my younger siblings from her abuse, but each day, it was killing a part of my soul. I was alone, miserable, and had no friends; I was the weird kid that no one liked. He came into my life completely unexpected, yet exactly when I needed him the most: the big, intimidating quarterback, Romeo Ricci. I never expected him to see me as something other than the weird loner. He was insistent on knowing me. He discovered parts of me that I desperately tried to keep all to myself. He held me when everything became unbearable. He saw everything: my fears, my worries, my hopes; he saw them all. I had no other choice but to fall for him. He became my everything, my beacon of light in my dark mind, my first love. But being with another boy could ruin his life. I was his dark secret, and I loved him enough for both of us to say his secret. But the moon never stays behind the clouds. Nothing stays a secret forever, and I don't know what will happen when everything unravels; I don't know what will be left of us. I just hope love will be enough. "Hold Me Down" is the first book of the "For Him Duology". It's a dark friends-to-lovers romance between a mafia heir who also happens to be a quarterback and his adorably shy and nerdy, loner of a boyfriend, who is also dealing with a rough family life.

Book 2 of: The Journey Series At twenty-eight, Angel Zayas-Smith steps into the role of CEO at Zayas Enterprises with the kind of focus that makes silence feel deliberate. Jadziel Zayas was fire...brilliant, intense, unforgettable. Angel is steel. Quiet. Controlled. But strength, he's learning, doesn't always come from boardrooms or clean contracts. Sometimes it comes from facing what you broke. From Isaack, his father and the heart behind Per Ardua, Angel learned how to care without rushing. From Jadziel, his CEO father, he learned how to lead. How to hold a room. How to survive in places that don't wait for softness. From his younger brother, Isadiel, Angel sees something, a reminder of family. Of what still feels real. Judge Rex, his old stuffed dinosaur, still sits on a shelf in his bedroom. Not for show. Just because it's his. A piece of who he was before things got complicated. So when his ex-best friend Thomas (Tommy) Hardling shows up again after seven years, the shift isn't dramatic. It's quiet, It's slow. And it starts to crack the armor Angel thought would hold.

One boy is hiding and the other is breaking apart.
