So I have read a lot of books and I think this might have been the most beautiful book I have ever read!!
I have read a number of MM books and I honestly think Deacon and Julian are my favorite couple to date!!
This story was heartbreakingly beautiful and tragic, but written in such a way that made me feel every emotion!!
I laughed and cried and enjoyed this incredible journey with them!!
I can’t wait to read more by Marley Valentine!!

Deacon and Julian 🥰
Their story really tugged at my heart, but they found love within the loss, and it was a beautiful thing.

All the stars for this breathtaking book. I cannot count how many times I have seen this book recommended, and it definitely held up to the hype. It was beautifully haunting and so real and raw. I felt every emotion and indecision and just war that was going on through this entire book. Now, this may not work for some, as it is a dead brother's boyfriend getting together with the other brother, but at no time does it ever feel that way. It just feels like two broken people finding their other half, so they could be whole and grow together. Also, I believe another saving grace is we never see on page how Julian and Rhett were together, so there was no contending with the other. You just saw how Julian and Deacon maneuvered their way through new friendship and confusing feelings, and then how they just fell so deeply for each other. I cried throughout the whole book, but it was still uplifting and never felt too heavy. Tim Paige and Teddy Hamilton killed this narration. I was bawling reading the one and only letter we got of Rhett, but I am happy to have only gotten one, and I love the one we got. Now, going to go read this extended epilogue!

NO ONE COULD BE MORE SURPRISED THAN ME THAT I ACTUALLY ENJOYED THIS???
This book is proof that your mood when reading will affect your experience dramatically hahah.
I went into this with a negative mind frame, I won’t lie, not to hate read it, but I have to be honest with myself enough to know that I don’t like gushy romance, and this looked like gush, gush city bitch.
AND THEN, for some unknown reason to me, I read the GR blurb and I was like….. okay… dead brothers best friend, that’ll be okay, let’s give it a go.
IT WAS DEAD BROTHERS BOYFRIEND! Why does the blurb say best friend and then mention playing house? Don’t fucking lie to me in a blurb you dog. Just say it’s dead brothers boyfriend.

I loved this forbidden romance! It was perfection I was on the edge of my seat waiting to see how everything will turn out and I was not disappointed! It was heartbreaking and romantic I laughed and cried I literally could not get enough of it!!
