    About this ebook

    When Alex gets a call in the middle of the night telling him his ex-boyfriend is in the hospital, he only hesitates for a second before rushing to Sammy’s side. But the Sammy in the hospital bed is fragile and not the same man who told Alex to leave seven months ago.

    Alex wants to help Sammy get better and is desperate to find out what went wrong between them. Maybe he’ll even get a second chance with the man he hasn’t been able to get over.

    But will Sammy let Alex back into his life?

    Nell Iris

    Nell is a forty-something bisexual Swedish woman, married to the love of her life, and a proud mama of a grown daughter. She left the Scandinavian cold and darkness for warmer and sunnier Malaysia a few years ago, and now spends her days writing, surfing the Internet, enjoying the heat, and eating good food. One day she decided to chase her lifelong dream of being a writer, sat down in front of her laptop, and wrote a story about two men falling in love. Nell writes gay romance, prefers sweet over angst, and wants to write diverse and different characters.

      I could never do this without a great playlist, lots and lots of tea, and many late nights. Or without Addison’s invaluable advice, and Kris’s love for her boys and her constant encouragement. Without my great publisher.

      But most of all, I could never do it without my family.

      Us Again

      By Nell Iris

      The shrill ringing of my phone wakes me. I pry open one eye and glare at the offender. I don’t recognize the number, and considering it’s in the middle of the goddamn night, there’s no way I’m answering.

      Who the fuck calls at two in the morning? I growl as I silence the ring. Then I mute the sounds—but make sure the alarm will still go off when I need it—and toss the phone on the bedside table, making it skitter across the surface for a few inches. An annoyed huff escapes me. I pull the cover over my head and close my eyes.

      Sleep, Alex, I mutter.

      It takes only a few seconds before an intense buzzing noise, sounding more like a drill than a vibrating phone, penetrates my blanket cocoon. My face contorts into a grimace and I slap my wrist over my ear in the hopes of keeping out the goddamned racket. Eventually the vibrating stops.

      Only to start right up again.

      What the actual fuck? I throw off the blanket and swing my legs over the side of the bed before grabbing the phone and accepting the call.

      Yes? I bark.

      Alexander Reed?

      Speaking. Who the fuck are you?

      My name is David Hayes.

      Hayes? Did he say Hayes?

      Samuel’s brother?
