AveryWilder-James
They lost each other once. Finding their way back changed everything.
Jamie Steele was eighteen when he fell into a messy, intoxicating situationship with Nathaniel Vanguard - brilliant, older, emotionally guarded, and unwilling to define what they were. For almost a year, they burned hot and crashed hard, until walking away became the only way Jamie could survive.
Two years later, Jamie is twenty-one, in college, and chasing his dream of becoming a graphic illustrator - only to land an internship at Vanguard Graphic.
Run by Nathaniel Vanguard.
Now thirty, Nathaniel has built an empire on control, ambition, and never letting love complicate his life. Seeing Jamie again - confident, talented, and very much not over him - unravels everything he thought he'd buried.
Forced into close proximity, Jamie and Nathaniel navigate unresolved feelings, workplace boundaries, and a pull neither of them can deny. From late nights at the office to creative competitions, international travel, and quiet moments that feel dangerously like home, they must decide if love deserves a second chance - or if timing has already done too much damage.
The Long Way Home is a slow-burn, second-chance MM romance about growth, healing, ambition, and choosing love again-not because it's easy, but because it's real.
