BLURB:
From USA Today Bestselling Author, Marley Valentine comes a brand new emotional, second chance, gay romance.
​
Two halves of a whole, Arlo Bishop and I were both unwanted kids brought together by the foster system. Dealing with the aftermath of neglect and abandonment, we grew up side by side and found solace in one another.
​
We wanted.
We needed.
We loved.
Desperately.
​
But somewhere along the way, Arlo wanted and needed and loved drugs more. So, I did the only thing I could and broke my own heart to save his.
​
Now, four years later, I’m back in L.A. and face-to-face with my past. Not only does the pain and hurt of our mistakes linger between us, but so do our feelings.
I didn’t plan on a second chance, fear of history repeating itself making it hard to forgive and even harder to forget. But with only one touch, one kiss, I was taken back to where it all started.
​
Two halves of a whole, Arlo Bishop and I were made for for each other. But we were no longer the unwanted foster kids.
​
We were grown men.
And I wanted nothing more than him.
