Not when he’s the prodigal son of the family you’ve always wanted. Especially not when he’s straight, damaged, and hell-bent on ripping your heart out and running away. When lines get crossed and he disappears, I vow I’m done chasing an impossible dream. So why am I answering his call two years later and letting him drag me back into his games? And how can I resist when the lure he’s dangling is the one thing I’ve always wanted—him? Gem Don’t break your best friend’s heart. Not when he’s the only perfect thing that’s ever loved you. Especially not when he makes you question everything you thought you knew about yourself. But all I do is drag him down with my addictions and the only way to save him is to let him go. So I run—only to realize the missing pieces of myself I’m chasing are shaped like him. I haven’t earned another chance, but I’m begging for one anyway. It’s time to shed my shackles and swim in the sun, because becoming the man he deserves is the only way I’ll ever find my home

LGBT History Month Every October, the United States celebrates LGBTQ+ History Month, a 31-day spotlight on the struggles, resilience, and triumphs of queer and trans people across generations. Unlike Pride in June, which bursts with parades and rainbows, October invites us to pause, reflect, and learn. It’s about acknowledging our past, uplifting our present, and fueling the future we are still fighting to build.
