Second book in the series but can be a standalone.Not as good as book one but still a very enjoyable read.

Axel and Cax first meet at church camp when they are young and become great friends over the years.But when they are 16 a line is crossed and they are caught in a comprising position and both their parents are called for.Axel doesn't want to leave the camp,only wanting to spend whatever time he can with Cax.However he soon realizes Cax is gone from his life...

6 years later,Axel is considering taking a job at a small college.He's watching a game on TV when he sees Cax in the Audience.....decision made.

As a result of the incident when they were 16,Cax has totally surpressed his sexuality not helped by the fact his father is extremely homophobic and taunts him at every opportunity.He wants his own life but feels he has to remain firmly in the closet and look out for his 3 younger brothers.

Axel is gay and while he doesn't flaunt his sexuality he's not ashamed of it either.
The two men start a tentative friendship which eventually becomes something more but Cax is terrified of being 'outed'

Likable characters,hot sex...ok,the story line involving Cax's father was a bit unbelievable (imo) but I would recommend this one for M/M fans.
