Wade returned to the mountains after his military career ended before it even started.
He knocked on Logan’s, his best friend, door. Of course, he was welcome.
Having Wade back made Logan happy. His simple and super-organized life has always room for his best friend.
Years ago they had an almost kiss. Logan made a half comment that came out wrong and made Wade retract directly.
Wade doesn’t want to lose his best friend, so he tries to temper his strong feelings for Logan, who doesn’t feel the same. Ha! Little does he know!
Watching both men was lovely, Wade was injured but trying to get his life on the rail, Logan working with veterans and thereby also helping Wade. Their attraction was strong and thankfully they finally acted on it.
Overall, it was a lovely read, the main and secondary characters were lovable. Altogether a nice bunch of people living together in a small mountain town.

Very lovely story of two best friends finally having their chance to be together.
Wade returns to his hometown in the mountains after a year of being hurt and miserable: his career in the military ended because of an injury and after rehab and some times at his mom's, he goes back to his best friend.
Wade and Logan were very different but also inseparable during high school, they also shared a moment but they couldn't seize the opportunity, depite being secretly in love with each other.
Wade is confused and scared, he doesn't have any plan for his future and has nothing to offer to Logan; Logan lives a simple life, he likes his routine and, because of that, he thinks a man like Wade can't be interested in a guy like him.
I liked very much how Logan supported Wade and never made him feel worthless. And I also liked how Wade was a safe space for Logan to be himself.
What prevented me from giving a higher rate:
I would have loved for the story to be more deepened, some themes remains too superficial, like Wade's recovery and his difficulties with dealing with the loss of his dream to be deployed.
I'll definitely keep reading this series, the next stoy seems very promising.
I received an ARC of this book from Booksprout and this is my honest review.

At high school graduation, Wade decided to come clean to his best friend about his attraction with a kiss. However, best friend Logan says “We shouldn’t,” and the moment is gone. Logan stays in their small town; Wade joins the military.
Some time later, Wade shows up at Logan’s door. Medically discharged due to an accident, Wade feels like a failure. Logan takes him in, and helps him get acquainted with some other veterans who accept Wade as one of them, no matter how short his time in the service. The scenes with the drop in veterans’ group are heartwarming.
Gradually, the two rediscover their deep bond. Wade starts fixing up his sister-in-law’s struggling café, and gets others involved in the project. Logan and veterans at the center where he works make the café *the* place to be. Logan and Wade also work together to help Wade’s sister-in-law with her children while her husband is deployed.
It’s a short, sweet, romance with a happy ending – and a teaser at the end with one of Logan’s triplet brothers.
