This a story of second chances in life in quite a literal way.
Robin & Vic meet at Victory Shelter where they both volunteer. Each is on the path of overcoming life issues and in a sense trying on a new skin.
Robin is a young (23) recovering addict, who has a strained relationship with his family. He has just broken up with a not so nice boyfriend and suffers from survivor's guilt.
Vic is 33 and after devastating losses has transformed himself professionally and physically. And he's been loving' on Robin from afar for a long time until he decides take a chance and go after him if only as a “rebound” guy.
Luckily for us and them things don't stay in the casual mode mostly due to the awesomeness that is Vic. You would be hard pressed to get more lucky than to be loved by Vic. Robin has hit the jackpot. Vic may not be physically perfect like most of the MCs we are used to in romance but he makes up for his perceived shortcomings by being the man Robin needs at any given moment: nurturer, lover and a strong hand to save him from himself in dark hours. He does all this despite his fears and struggles. He does it because he loves Robin wholeheartedly.
I liked the first book in the series but this story I loved. I wished it was longer so that we could have more time with these two perfectly flawed men.
