I love Sloan Parker's writing. Ever since i read Breathe i was hooked.Grady and Mateo are/ were friends until Mateo made a move Grady. Initially Grady accepted it until he didn't. So he walked away from Mateo. Even though Mateo pleaded with him not to. He left and years went by and Greg got married twice but they never lasted because he knew deep down that he couldn't love those women. He couldn't love them because he was in love with Mateo. The thing is after his most recent divorce (his marriages never lasted long-- talking months) he starts to try and find Mateo. But Mateo can't be find. It's like he vanished. Until one day he sees Mateo at a gay pride parade from afar and they lock eyes. Grady hasn't been with a man. He went to the parade with the intention of solving that matter but when he saw Mateo he knew he only wanted one man. That man being Mateo. Mateo flees and runs away. Grady anxious to find him and apologize to him with the hope of picking up where the left off looks to the internet to find his man. He comes out on facebook and then posts an ad for Mateo. Mateo finally contacts him  but it's evident that he's not the same person Grady knew back then. Mateo is angry and hurt and a little bit broken. The past is trying catch up to him and a person from his past refuses to let Mateo move on. Grady won't allow Mateo to walk away from his life because he's finally admitting what and who he wants and he won't give up without a fight. And it's going to be a fight. Him and Mateo have to survive in order to live. With each other. Because Mateo is in some serious trouble and he can't win this battle alone .
