Summary

From USA Today best-selling author Marley Valentine comes a brand-new emotional, second chance, gay romance.

Two halves of a whole, Arlo Bishop and I were both unwanted kids brought together by the foster system. Dealing with the aftermath of neglect and abandonment, we grew up side-by-side and found solace in one another.

We wanted.

We needed.

We loved.

Desperately.

But somewhere along the way, Arlo wanted and needed and loved drugs more. So I did the only thing I could and broke my own heart to save his.

Now, four years later, I’m back in L.A. and face-to-face with my past. Not only does the pain and hurt of our mistakes linger between us, but so do our feelings.

I didn’t plan on a second chance, fear of history repeating itself making it hard to forgive and even harder to forget. But with only one touch, one kiss, I was taken back to where it all started.

Two halves of a whole, Arlo Bishop and I were made for for each other. But we were no longer the unwanted foster kids.

We were grown men.

And I wanted nothing more than him.

Unwanted is book one in a brand-new, emotional LGBTQ+ series that follows a group of foster siblings who are banded together by their pasts. Each book can be listened to as a complete stand-alone.

I'm starting to find that Marley Valentine books come to me at the time that I need them.
I loved Arlo and Frankie's story so much, I just wished there was more of it.
There was so much growth off the page but the awareness that helped the story along was a delight. It's a reminder to allow ourselves to feel our emotions and not to keep them bottled up.
I need to find the next book in the series now.

I want more!
