Is a gift of love enough to open Aiden's heart and let Tris back in? After the car accident that killed his parents and left his sister paralyzed, Tris is left with nothing. His family is destroyed. His reputation is shot. And all he has is the guilt of knowing it was all his fault. People in town know he'd been drinking that night, and know he should never have gotten behind the wheel. And even Aiden, the man he thought he'd be with forever, blames him too much to stay. But Tris can't let him just disappear. After months of loneliness and isolation, Tris brings Aiden a gift on his birthday, a hawk he's carved from a chunk of wood they'd found in the forest during an afternoon of love.

I was lucky enough to get this book the day before it came out, my first complimentary book. (Cool!) To be perfectly honest, the blurb didn't thrill me and I probably would have skipped it, but since it was free and there were no stipulations given to me to write a review, I decided to skim it and see what it was all about. I was incredibly surprised that, while the subject matter twisted my heart quite a bit and the angst was more than I personally choose to take on in my M/M fiction, I quite enjoyed it. I wasn't expecting the twist at the end at all, and I'm not even going to mention it in spoiler tags, because it is the main reason I am recommending this book and to spoil it will take a lot away from your enjoyment. Trust me.

Recommended if you can handle some pretty serious M/M angst, but rest assured the author pulls out all the stops and brings about a logical HEA that will leave even the biggest skeptic satisfied.
