Audiobook version.
I'm was a bit disappointed by Troy before the end. I knew it had been 6 years but with the way Oscar had left him ? I thought he was too forgiving, too fast... and it blocked me from getting into their story between, I'd say 50 and 80% of the book. The book was as fine as the others but I didn't feel the chemistry between them because all I saw was Oscar being a coward and treating Troy like shit and Troy letting him...
The last 20% saved the book because I finally saw that Troy hadn't "let" Oscar do anything but he was in fact trying to push him in the direction he wanted, giving him a chance not for Oscar sake but for himself. I still would have understand more anger and still think Oscar would have been the one who had to try but, hey, it's their life and their relationship. Oscar was just a very lucky bastard to have Troy willing to fight for them !

Low Angst
Second Chance dual point of view
Best if 1 in series is read first.
Oscar has landed in a long term position finally and is hoping for quiet and the ability to heal. He is not expecting to run into the only man he’s ever loved and left for fear of revealing that he’s gay.
They were very sweet. Really liked how funny Troy was.

Nice but I didn't like it as much as the first two books.
Guess I'm not a big fan of the "second chances" storyline

Definitely my favourite one yet, I absolutely adore a good second chances romance and this had all the right ingredients.
Troy was a sweetheart and Oscar's fears about being out felt completely believable to me, especially for how he was terrified of his brother's reaction.
Lots of angsty hurt/comfort and good grovelling made this a hit.
