About this listen

Running away is only the first step. Moving on is the hardest.

When Archer Navarro escapes his emotionally abusive boyfriend in the middle of the night, he hopes to step into a better life. A turn of bad luck ends Archer's flights as soon as it starts, but the kindness of strangers brings him to an LGBT shelter.

And it brings him to Brooklyn. He's the moody, drop-dead gorgeous tenant in the apartment next door, and he soon becomes the source of Archer's hope.

Their chemistry is instant. It's hot enough to melt the snow that's about to bury them. Brooklyn makes Archer believe there still might be some love in him left to give. If only the past wasn't getting in the way. If only Archer could let those around him help.

The road of trials tests these men's will to hold onto one another. Tensions with his estranged family and a lifetime of scars threaten to take Archer back to where it all started. Back to the house where he was a little more than a prisoner.

And when the future of both their lives depends on it, Archer and Brooklyn need to answer it once and for all: can broken hearts ever beat the same again? And can love ever be enough?

Contains mature themes.

the narrator really got me. I think the story had some potential but not fully realised

This book was free so I figured why not. But then I couldn’t finish it with too many reasons why.
This book seriously needs content warnings at the beginning. It jumps immediately into coercive control and the MMC then dealing with trying to get away and how to overcome that. There's such a huge negative voice within this book, it's too hard to continue reading it.
The relationship that Archer has with Brooklyn is not what this story actually needs. I'm not sure of the timeline here, but what should've been months to adjust to a new world, without your abusive partner, and then getting to know the hot guy, before falling into bed with him, did not happen. Which is incredibly frustrating. Got to 75% when he breaks up with Brooklyn to rescue his sister but gets himself in a situation with the ex and I don't want to know any further.

Where are the CW/TW??
