Some people say you can’t fall in love at 18. But I did. And the man of my dreams? Jaris Black. He was also 18.

 

Our first year at medical school we moved in together. It was…perfect.

 

Until…

 

I haven’t seen or talked to him in six years. But I’ve never stopped thinking about him. Jaris is a very successful doctor, which is no surprise to me. Still living in Unit H at Mockingbird Place.

 

God, how I’ve missed him.

 

I won’t drag Jaris into the chaos that is my life. No. I won’t. But my mother who is dying has requested to see him. They were so close. Still are.

 

I had to honor Mom’s wish. I called him and he’s arriving in an hour. Can I keep my feelings hidden from him? I need to, for his sake.

 

This is the second book I read in the series and just like the first you can feel the love that all the residents have for each other and how much they will support those around them.  Maddox doesn’t believe he is worth the love and support after he is attacked and wrongfully accused and convicted.  Even though bad things have happened and a lot of time has passed Jaris is determined to convince him that he worthy.

 

We see this story from Maddox’s point of view.  Maddox is torn between wanting to please his mom and keeping himself away from Jaris.  I could feel how desperate Maddox was to keep Jaris safe and not cause him any harm, but how much he still longed for their connection.  Even though you see how everything affected Maddox and what he went through the story is still pretty uplifting and is happy.

 

The cover art is catches your eye and follows the pattern for the series.
