Remember Him


Book Description

Baxter Rawlins: a real heartbreaker. He broke mine ten years ago. Back in high school, Baxter pretended not to even know my name. I was a skinny, plaid-shirt-wearing nobody. I was openly gay, but nobody even cared - except Baxter, when he wanted a hookup. That was all a nerd like me could expect from the star quarterback and prom king. Our trysts were his dirty little secret. I've stayed away from Baxter for a decade now, even when he came back to visit Honey Bay. I'm older now. Wiser. I know I deserve better. Even if I can't stop thinking about his smile and his laugh. Even if I remember those fleeting moments when we were together. Andy Silver: my one weakness. Back then, I was sure I could control myself. But every time Andy smiled at me from under his floppy bangs, I couldn't help myself, much less control my urges. How could a guy wearing wire-rimmed glasses ever be so hot? It was a high school fling. I spent ten years running away from my memories of Andy. My parents never would have understood. Disappointing them was out of the question. Even if I loved Andy more than he ever knew. I didn't expect to see Andy at the radio station I plan to buy. That shy nerd is a popular radio host? And he works out? I shouldn't dwell on my fantasies of Andy, even if every sight of him sends me there. My parents sent me back to Honey Bay for business. It's Andy who might keep me here for a second chance. Remember Him is a 42,000-word small-town second-chances MM romance. A jock might fall back in love with the nerd he left back in Honey Bay. On their way to a feel-good HEA, two sweet guys encounter miniature golf, big microphones, and passionate discussions of timber, lumber, and wood.
