The Wounded Mountain Man by Casey Cox
4.0
4 stars
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.
