I struggled a little bit with this one. I'm loving the series in general, but this one didn't really do it for me. I loved the story arc, but struggled with one of the main characters. Blaine is lovely, but to be honest, I struggled to find a connection with Eric. He was like an angry toddler throwing a tantrum most of the time and it just felt too over the top for me. It definitely won't put me off the series though, so... on to the next one

One hard fought second chance

Eric has a metaphorical brick wall -with spikes-that is painful to the touch of anyone who tries to reach his heart. Powerful defense mechanism for a man who has been badly hurt. Now that deeply rooted pain is back in his life in the form of his ex.

Blaine left Port Dale and joined the military. After eight years, he decides to get out and join the Port Dale Police Department. Imagine running into the person whom you left heartbroken. Now you are his new partner to replace his old one.

Let the fun begin.

Glimpses of their past and witnessing their present shows you how much is still there despite the outward pain, misunderstandings, and anger.

SPOILER - Eric's brother played a role in this and caused his brother all this unnecessary pain
