Always You

COOPER Nate Perkins was the first boy I’d ever loved, and then he’d broken my heart. I never thought when I returned home that I might see him again or that those same feelings would come rushing back. I thought I’d gotten over him. I thought I’d moved on. But when I get a job at the city’s most popular bar, Toxic, not only do I see him, I realize he’s working there with his band. And he’s still as hot as ever, voice smooth as silk as he sings all the songs I remember from our youth. It’s hard not to fall for him again, but I’ll do what it takes to resist. NATE I might not have known who I was when I was a teenager, but since then I’ve embraced who I am. I’ve got a great singing career and friends who are like family. But I don’t have love. It feels like a mirage when I see Cooper again, the first time in ten years, and realize the boy I’d crushed on when I’d been young was now a man. I hadn’t been able to tell him how I really felt back then, but now I want him more than I’ve ever wanted anyone else. But how can I get him to trust me when I’d broken his heart, and how can I set aside my feelings when I finally realize he’s the love of my life? ALWAYS YOU is the final novella in the steamy contemporary M/M romance series, TOXIC. It’s complete with a satisfying romance, a HEA, and can be read as a standalone.
