BEAUTY…
After living on the streets and in his car, Travis has found a home in Brighton, Texas. His job as a cook at the local diner pays enough for him to afford a small apartment, and, for the first time in years, he’s able to feed his passion, buying a few art supplies so he can sketch. He’s safe, and, oddly enough, feels accepted in this small town. And, for reasons he cannot fathom, Bo Mason, a gorgeous cop, seems interested. While flattered, Travis knows if his secrets are revealed, Bo won’t want to have a damn thing to do with the likes of Travis Boone.
IS MORE THAN SKIN DEEP
From the moment he saw the new blue-eyed cook at Brighton’s diner, Bo Mason fell. Hard. And while getting close to Travis Boone has been like gentling a terrified animal, Bo knows there’s a special person hiding behind those small smiles and closely guarded secrets. Slowly, Bo starts to peel back the layers cocooning Travis and learns the heart of an angel beats inside the most beautiful man Bo has ever known.
REVIEW:
- Tasia makes it hard to pick favorites in these books but to be honest, if you’ve kept up with this series, you know what I mean. But I think I just officially found my favorite so far. Not loving the others any less, but there’s something about Travis that calls to you and I’m glad he got Bo to see that in him. He needed good in his life for once and for to finally be seen as the angel he is.
Travis’s life has been downhill since he was 16. Something tragic happened in his life and it’s been eating at him since. Especially since his own mother didn’t help at all in the matter. Add on top of that, he ended up homeless with a few other things to add to the mix and Travis is about to the point of giving up. But several people saw something in Travis that called to them to give him love and support he needed, even when he didn’t think he deserved it or was terrified of what would happen. One of those people was policeman, Bo Mason. He knew underneath those haunted eyes and shy smile, lie a man with secrets but a heart of an angel. And the more he got under those layers Travis built up, the more he saw he was right. But Travis is losing his mind with nightmares and it’s time to get help and learn to let go. But will Travis accept Bo’s help or run like he normally does? Can he trust Bo, especially now that he knows Bo knows part of his secret, or is he going to have to leave and find somewhere else to go?
Oh man. I bawled like a little baby in this series. It’s insane how much I cried. If you have not read this series, you are missing out. Especially on this sweet, sweet man. He is an angel. Bo saw right, right from the beginning. He knew right away what he found in Travis and I’m just as in love with Bo, because he knew he was going to have to go real slow with Travis and he has. He has been patient and loving. So supportive in anything that pertains to Travis. He gives Travis space if he needs it, and hugs the man when Travis doesn’t even know he needs a hug. He goes slow in touching him, gently kissing him and everything. He lets Travis makes most of the moves so he knows he’s cherished and not rushed. Loved and used. And because of Bo’s unconditional and unwavering devotion, Travis has started to blossom in ways that no one ever thought possible. It doesn’t mean it’s easy or that he doesn’t have a long way to go. But he’s trying. He’s accepting that people really do care and aren’t out to hurt him. That they’ve accepted him as family and nothing less. And I love it. Because for once in Travis’s hard life, he finally feels free. And when you read his story, you’ll know why that’s so important.
It’s a beautiful story and while parts break my heart in two, I’m just as happy. This is another amazing series that I’m loving so much. And I can’t wait to see what happens next. Because I have a feeling I’m going to want to shake Bo’s brother in the next one.
