My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Blaise loses one of his longtime partners, leaving him shattered and leaning on his husband, Sawyer, and an unexpected new friendship with Grant to survive the grief. Grant, raised in an unconventional but unstable environment, is left completely alone after his own loss — until Blaise and Sawyer reach out and offer him the support he desperately needs. What begins as comfort in shared tragedy grows into something deeper: Blaise and Grant form a powerful bond, and Sawyer finds himself unexpectedly drawn to Grant as well. As the three men navigate grief, healing, and the slow rebuilding of trust, Grant struggles to believe he deserves a place in their loving, established family. With Blaise’s steady understanding and Sawyer’s gentle devotion, they work toward creating a future where all three of them can belong.
I loved that this story was steeped in grief, and the emotional weight carried by Grant, Blaise, and Daley was beautifully, painfully rendered. Each of them is shattered in different ways, and the book never shied away from showing how loss reshapes them. What makes it so moving is the quiet strength Sawyer brings to all of it — he becomes the steady centre holding everyone together, even while his own heart is breaking. Amid the sorrow, there’s also a profound sense of love. It surrounds them in different forms: the long‑standing devotion between Blaise and Sawyer, the fragile new bond forming with Grant, and the way shared heartbreak slowly becomes shared healing. The tenderness woven through their connections makes this a deeply emotional and ultimately hopeful read. This was an MM+ story with mature content.
