Here's a snippet from one ARC reader:
"Author A.D. Ellis weaves a magical tale of love, family, small towns and big dreams and it makes the reader instantly fall in love with it all."
Blurb:
Sawyer Morgan has a secret. Revealing his true feelings to his family could bring devastation and destruction, so he keeps the burden firmly on his own shoulders. When he moves back to Torey Hope to help with the family business, Sawyer’s hidden truth becomes too much to bear.
Luke Hamilton has a past overflowing with emotional and physical scars. A promise to his dying mother prevents him from seeking the love and acceptance he longs for. Taking a job in Torey Hope brings Luke face-to-face with taboo desires he thought long extinguished.
Secrets, lies, hatred, and fear threaten to destroy their lives. But, love has the power to overcome and lay claim to victory.
Will Sawyer succeed in proving to Luke some connections are worth fighting for?
A poignant tale of two hearts valiantly fighting to stay true and find love.

MY 5 STAR REVIEW
First of all I want to say M/M isn't something I have read before but from reading Decker's book I'm invested in these characters and I couldn't pass up on Sawyer's story.
So stating the obvious this is an M/M. Its hard to talk about a book, giving readers an insight into the book without giving it all away! But I'll try my best. So Sawyer lives in a small town, Torey Hope, where he knows it won't be easy to come out but he's not worried about that, it's his family he's worried about, family means everything to him and is a strong theme in these books. He's afraid of how it will be received, how their love for him will stand once they know and how who he is will affect everything they have all worked hard for. Sawyer also has to deal with how much he is willing to fight for love. This story is all about love and acceptance and the journey of getting there.
"Boy, you don't have a damn thing to apologize for. Open your eyes and look at me, don't you hang your head in shame."
Luke Hamilton has some demons and this plays a big enough part in this story. Both men have obstacles to get over together and separately to get that happy ending but with support from his family, his twin brother and cousins especially, he is determined. It's not always easy though, its not easy at all actually but both men need to decide if that love is worth it all.
"Let love in, let love win."
I was so excited to get Sawyers story. He's just that kind of character that deserves love and you want to see him falling in love. This was emotional for me, it hurt me to the core, I wanted to cry for these men and wanted to scream at the close minded, cruel, malicious bullies who think they have the right to dictate who a person can love. This hit so many emotions. I even have a lump in my throat writing this review. While this is "just a book" this is someone's story, this is a story, I'm sure many, many people can relate with, can identify with. I loved this because while it was emotional and tore me apart at times it was also filled with love, friends family and was downright hilarious at times, how could it not be? Kendrick is in it! Oh he makes me laugh so much, I loved how the family side of it was done, once again. I just can't fault this. I can't wait for Zach's and Kendrick's stories, these characters are so easy to love.
"I didn't know I had it in me to fight for my happiness until I found you."
