The relationship between Anders and Brody was a slow-burn one, with setbacks, accidents but also fun times. It was a book of healing, quiet and powerful. Anders’ his journey was beautiful, how he slowly let Brody in, how Lucky wormed her way into his heart. But pain wasn’t all there was to him love how much love he had to give, even if he didn’t know it himself. A man he’s both attracted to and wary of.Īnders broke my heart. Which is why he agrees to move in with said boyfriend’s best friend Brody. He doesn’t handle change well, or at all, so he’s been putting off finding a new place to live to the very last second and suddenly (or not so suddenly) he finds himself having to choose to live with his brother and his boyfriend, but living two people desperately in love isn’t appealing. Something he was still working on, but still had ways to go.

It understandably left him with a lot of anxiety and trust issues. But with limited options, I find myself outside his apartment holding a full moving box and wondering: How can I do this without exposing the darkest part of my past?Ī few years ago Anders Steele was attacked by his ex-boyfriend and left for dead. He doesn’t know what happened to me five years ago, and I want to keep it that way. When I need to find a new place to live, Brody offers me his spare room, but I have no plans on taking him up on the offer. He reminds me of someone I’d rather forget. He’s the opposite of what I usually go for. Breakups.īut there’s one person above everything else I can’t seem to get a handle on.

There’s a long list of things I don’t handle well: Change. He’s everything I want but run away from.
