The sequel to the much-loved gay romance Reasons To Love A Nerd Like Me – a boy-meets-boy story full of yearning, emotional drama, small-town cosiness and one incredibly loveable found family.
Taylor Raven is starting over.
Leaving behind the wreckage of his past - and a father he can’t forgive - he escapes to the quiet village of Westerfield to train as a tennis coach... and disappear.
He wants solitude. Silence. A chance to stop hurting the people he cares about.
But then he finds The Apple Inn - a crumbling country pub brimming with warmth, eccentricity, and one very persistent family who won’t let him vanish.
Especially Benjamin Apple. Charming. Gentle. Unafraid of Taylor’s sharp edges.
As Taylor begins to open up, he also starts to pull away - afraid of what loving someone like Benjamin might cost. Because the hardest person to forgive... is always yourself.
