BLURB:

Andrew Donovan is the outrageous goofy guy that everyone loves. In any setting he’s in, he takes front stage and makes everyone laugh; from his ridiculously funny t-shirts, to his naughty jokes, to his shameless flirting with anything that walks, both men and women. But what you see on the outside can sometimes be deceiving. Andrew has a secret. A secret that’s slowly withering away the fun loving guy that everyone knows. A secret that even his closest friends know nothing about. When he first sees Jase in a picture, he knows instantly that he’s found the one person who will be his forever. He’s just impatiently biding his time for him to get to Jaded Hollow. Andrew is torn. On one hand, he’s finally found the other half of his soul, while on the other hand, he’s slowly dying inside. Tragedy is on the horizon and there’s nothing he can do to stop it.

Jase Matthews comes to Jaded Hollow a dead man walking. He knows it’s only a matter of time before they find him. There is no way they’ll let him live. At his first sight of Andrew, he’s instantly drawn to him, but he refuses the connection, knowing his days are numbered. However, it’s not long before he realizes the pull Andrew has on him is something he can’t fight. Can Andrew find the courage to reveal to his loved ones the secret he’s kept for years? Will Jase be the man to help him overcome the grief he feels inside? And what happens when Jase’s past catches up to him and threatens to take away the man Andrew’s waited forever to meet?

My Review:

4 stars

I'm happy we finally got Andrew's story! I felt so bad that he spent all his time pining after Jaxson and it broke my heart every time he bit back his feelings.

I loved his attitude. He was truly the type that didn't care what anyone said about him and was comfortable enough in his skin to go after what he truly wanted and not let anyone stand in his way. I loved that he was basically obsessed with Jase, it was cute. They made an amazing couple, but of course it wasn't easy by far. Jase had his demons following him and Andrew held one hell of a secret. 

It was a bit of a let down that it was predictable. I figured out Andrew's secret almost immediately and couldn't identify with his reasoning for keeping it. Jase's demons were more of a surprise, which made it enjoyable.

There were a few times when Andrew's name was used in places where it should have been Jase's name (character mixups) and it threw me off a little. There were also a few missing words or the wrong use/spelling of words, but it didn't detract too much from the story.  I liked this story and enjoyed getting to know Jase and Andrew on a deeper level.
