Kieran Addison, in his teens, falls in love with his brother Brad's boyfriend, then runs away to another country to bury himself in a career so he can forget. When his brother is killed in a car accident, Kieran comes back for the funeral, but leaves almost immediately. It's only when his father becomes ill that Kieran returns for good. He finds the family business almost bankrupt and Jordan, the man he loves, broken--a shell of the man he used to be, beaten down by despair over the business and guilt over Brad's death. The journey Kieran and Jordan take is a journey filled with decisions and revealed secrets. Can Kieran and Jordan finally see what could be between them after all these years?… (meer)

This is a tough book to rate. It is a case for needing half stars on Goodreads. I liked it, but didn't love it. It is a 3 1/2 star rating for me, but I don't know if I can really round up. The story had a great premise and had the potential to be really solid, but I felt that there were hole in the overall cohesiveness. Kieran has been in love with Jordan forever, yet has guilt about Jordan being his brother's boyfriend. Jordan has so much guilt about his relationship with Brad falling apart and for having feelings toward Kieran. I didn't really see any resolution to the guys with regards to their guilt. They kept saying "this is talk we will have to have", but then never really have it. One minute they are avoiding each other and angry (well, mostly Jordan is), and then all of a sudden...it doesn't matter anymore. I also didn't like how some of the resolution happened off the page (with the Mom and the bank). (
