Trevor Estes has lost his anchor. His son Riley was everything—his pride, his heartbeat, his purpose. When Riley is killed in combat, Trevor is left with nothing but a gaping silence and grief he doesn’t know how to carry.
Then Jesse Byrne shows up. Riley’s platoon mate. His friend. His final link to a life that once made sense.
Jesse brings memories, understanding, and a kind of comfort Trevor didn’t expect. What begins as shared sorrow grows into something deeper, something undeniable. But opening his heart to Jesse means letting go of the last tie to his son.
In this deeply emotional gay romance, Melanie Hansen explores love born from loss, and the courage it takes to move forward without forgetting where you came from.
