Second in the series and while really good leaves more questions than answers. Caleb and Adam are almost at the breaking point of their relationship. Being partners and having a murder to solve doesn't help.
From the Readjustment blurb:
The greatest lies are the ones we tell ourselves.
Adam Dawson never thought he’d meet someone like Caleb Straus. Three months of friendship with his new partner has made Adam take a good look at his life, and he doesn't like what he sees. The safety he finds with Caleb is the only thing holding him together, but it's also the thing that might rip his world to shreds.
Caleb wasn’t ready for Adam either, and the bond they’ve formed has grown exponentially over time. It's intense and gratifying in a way he's craved for years, but also the biggest problem in his life.
To complicate things further, the body of the County Sheriff’s son, Keola Antu, shows up in a Peyton field.
As the they investigate who’s responsible, they discover the case offers more than they bargained for. For every answer there’s another question just behind it. Everyone has something to hide, and the deeper they dig, the closer to home it hits.
With their foundations shaken, the men face a crossroads that'll shape their chances at a life together. But when old habits rear their heads, will they both find the strength to make the hard choices? Or will the damage of their pasts that once brought them together, tear them apart?
Reed Kaye's review:
This is the second book in the series and it really helps if you read these in order.
Getting a new case is just the beginning of situations to handle for Caleb and Adam.
Adam is only at this police station for a given amount of time and even though they are working on a homicide the clock is ticking on Adam being Caleb’s partner. The mystery part of the story keeps moving along but there are more questions than answers about this.
On a personal level. This is an intense story. Adam has had a long time to get to this point in his marriage. He has a cheating husband yet finds himself in a situation that leaves him more confused and unbalanced. Calab is aware of his feelings for Adam but can’t handle the path their relationship is headed.
I have to say while I enjoyed this story it left me more anxious to get my hands on the next book. This is the reason I don’t do cliffhangers but I got hooked into this one because I really enjoy this author’s writing.
