The night before Noah Hill left his hometown of Mountain View, he had a drunken sexual tryst with his best friend, Lucas Wesson. Deeply in the closet, Noah is horrified at his behavior, and terrified of what Lucas would think of him. He left the next morning without saying goodbye, and effectively cut off all ties. He returns five years later to help his father, and runs into his old best friend almost as soon as he reaches town. And nothing has changed. He still loves Lucas, and he still can’t stand to meet the other man’s eyes. Lucas has been through a lot in the past five years without his best friend’s support. A marriage. A divorce. A child. Running his own business. He also remembers his one night with Noah with perfect clarity. For five years, he only wanted Noah to come home. But now that Noah is back, things have changed too much to ever be the same between them…
REVIEW:
Hello and welcome to another excellent Pepper Espinoza tale. I have to say that Pepper has been a personal favorite of mine for quite some time and she never fails to keep my attention and this book is no different.
My Only Home is all about Noah and Lucas, two best friends who grew up together in a small town and were pretty much everything to each other until one drunken night where they went from friends to lovers. Too bad Noah didn’t remember all the details or he could have saved himself and Lucas a few hard years apart from each other. After waking up with only the memory of kissing his best friend, Noah fled town in shame unable to face his best friend thinking he did something unforgivable. What he didn’t remember thanks to the alcohol is that Lucas was as into it as he was and that they had gone further than a kiss. Fast forward several years and Noah is back in town to wrap up some loose ends regarding his father’s death. He immediately encounters Lucas and they begin to sort through what happened that night.
Will they be able to rebuild their relationship? What happens when Noah has to go back home and deal with his job and such? It will take determination, but can they get through the hard parts and get to a happy ending?
I think Pepper has another hit with this book and as always, I look forward to her new endeavors. I highly recommend this book!
