A gritty romantic drama of two untamed hearts and the unbreakable bonds of a lifetime love.

Ryan meets Dominic when their parents rekindle a relationship they’d abandoned many years before. Cocky, confident, and handsome Dominic quickly becomes Ryan’s best mate as well as his secret infatuation.

When a line is crossed as the young men explore uncharted desires, a passionate, forbidden affair leads Ryan to fall hopelessly in love. However, disaster and heartbreak hit hard when the family unit is torn apart.

Twenty years later, a chance encounter brings the two men together again. Decades of estrangement have done nothing to diminish their explosive chemistry.

Will they finally be able to build the relationship they’ve always needed after a lifetime of denial and suffering?

Please note: this book contains strong adult themes, sexual scenes and violence.


Molly Otto's review:

Audio update
Colin Dereham himself narrated his book and wow the power in his voice is something special. He made an already amazing story even more powerful. You felt every emotion he put into writing this book. You felt the struggle with each word which juet made it all the better. I hope he does all his future narrarations of his stories he is that Powerful of a narrator.

I have said this before and will say it again Colin is a genius in his gift of writing angsty erotica. You have strong, powerful, intimate moments combined seamlessly with gut-wrenching pain. Ryan & Dominic are each other's first loves as well as step brothers. They have a relationship that will haunt them until fate decided it's time for their paths to cross again. Ryan has not had an easy life he has loved and lost hard, and those emotional scars will stay with him forever. When Dominic enters his life again, we have the pure beauty and heat of a new relationship, and wow is perfection. Then guess what a wrench is thrown into perfection and both parties will forever be changed once again. When Ryan makes up for his poor choices, boy does he do that and more. With one letter, you feel the remorse to understand he deserves one last chance. The two are so beautiful together, along with Dominic son from his marriage, to build a beautiful life together of hope. Just be prepared. This is an emotional journey and head the trigger warnings.
