About this listen

Rowan

Five years ago, I ruined the best thing I had in my life and ran. Now, I'm finally back to make things right. I need Circus's forgiveness, and then I can finally move on. I'll leave Sunbury for good this time and never look back. Maybe then I can finally live life as an out gay man - without my family ever finding out. But earning his forgiveness isn't as simple as I hoped it would be. He's going to make me fight for it. And I don't blame him at all.

Circus

I never wanted or expected to see Rowan Harvey again. When he shows up in Sunbury, begging for forgiveness, I'm tempted to give it to him just so he'll disappear. Instead, we make a deal. I need an extra model for a swimwear shoot, and none of my friends are available or fit the brief. I'll forgive him, if he helps me. Then he has to leave. For good. Because his request for anonymity during the shoot proves he's still living in his dark closet. I'm not going to make the same mistakes I did when I was a teenager. I won't let myself fall for him again. Because after how things ended between us, he doesn't deserve a second chance.

Contains mature themes.

Strict conservative Catholic extended family and a gay man's identity & love for another man make for an excellent plot device - too common in real life for many, no doubt.
I enjoyed this story very much and the steamy scenes really were just a spice in it, not porn with a plot.

Highly recommend! Credible depiction of a queer man's struggles w/ conservative Catholic upbringing and family

Overall, I enjoyed the book though I felt the MC was too forgiving of the other MC. That part annoyed me but it didn't take too much away from the book, generally speaking. The narrators were good as well.

Good book
