And All Their Stars by Riley Nash
5.0
I forever will be thankful to Riley for giving us a final HEA for Jonah and Gray. This short novella should be read after Make Me Fall and tells the story of how both men finally heal from their past emotional hurt. It is just as touching as Make Me Fall, but there is a gentleness about it that I truly adore.
Jonah and Gray are happy. Unquestionably happy together. It was such a joy to see where they are after settling into their small-town life and adopting their cute little daughter. But when outside circumstances force them to look at their past again, all the pain comes back, and they are both powerless to stop it. This book, first and foremost, is about family: how Jonah and Gray feel about their family … or the lack of it, and how they cope with their hurt and emotional trauma when it comes to their younger years. Moreover, where their life is supposed to go, according to Gray who is always making precise plans, and Jonah who is always wrecking them. The type of family they are trying to build … Gosh, how I wish there would be a million more people out there with the same intentions! Their interactions are still witty, sexy, and funny ... and adding a kid or two into this mixture just makes this story that much more precious. This book could have been twice the size and I would still feel it wasn't long enough.
