So Stay was amazing. It was more than I hoped it could or would be. I love Cooper and Noah, but I seriously have a softer spot for Wes and Braden. Of course we get LOTS of Coop and Noah in the story and they make it delightful and entertaining, especially Coop, love him so much. But Braden and Wes are something special. We start off with a very hard time, Chelle's funeral. Everyone is there to support Braden and Jessie, even Braden. He offers up his friendship services for Wes. And Wes being Wes refuses and is stubborn and pushes Braden away any chance he has. But they keep running into each other and Jessie falls in love with Braden and he cannot help but fall for the little girl. These two, their interactions are ADORABLE! I love them so much. And what a smart and sweet little girl. She loves her uncle Wes and her mama clearly was raising her right. For that little girl to understand the love between two men, it was beautiful. The entire story was beautiful. Love, hope, forgiveness, moving on, passion, acceptance, change. It was touching and moving, so beautiful. Braden being Braden he pushes the boundaries and slowly brings down all of Wes's walls one by one. Wes is slowly falling in love with Braden but he fights it and does not want to admit his feelings. He doesn't want to be left alone ever again and does not want to hurt and disappoint Jessie. So, after he learns some things about Braden from spending Christmas with his family, he starts to shut down and pull back. Braden gets the off of a lifetime. To move to New York and get his dream position. Will Wes ask him to stay? or will he let him go? you will have to read to find out. But it was amazing and beautiful and I LOVED IT, even a tiny bit more than Collide and ya'll know how much I loved Collide. Riley blew me away. Perfection! cannot wait for Mason's story!! I hope he ends up with Fred ;-) LOL."I know you said you were into guys longer than Coop, but I gotta know... do I need to stop drinking the water around here or what?"I had MANY more quotes, but they had swears and Amazon kept sending back my review so I just took them all out. Got tired of trying to get which thing they were getting pissy about. My full review is on Goodreads with swear words and all ;-)
