I feel like it was well written and treated with the respect it deserves. I connected with the characters from the beginning and I was invested in what happened to them. I would read this book again and I would recommend to those that wouldn't be offended by the content. Great book, 4 out of 5 stars. Zeige 2 von 2 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

At twenty-three, Jamus Cork's plans are simple-graduate college, stay in New York City, and write. But those plans change when his parents are suddenly killed and he finds himself the guardian of his little brother, Nick. Jamus ends up back in the Boston neighborhood where he grew up, with a crying toddler on his knee and the challenge of building a new life for himself and the boy. Jamus somehow finds a way to navigate the ups and downs of single parenting, but over a decade of raising Nick, Jamus never truly overcomes his struggles with loneliness and the guilt he feels as the sole survivor of the crash that killed his parents. That changes when he meets bookishly handsome Sean Malloy. There's a spark between the two men, but both must face down their own private demons to find love in the Irish enclave of South Boston.

In the realm of understated family drama, this book rushes to the front of the pack. There's the dynamic between Jamus and Nick, which has all kinds of complications, and then there's the Malloys, who all take things a little bit differently as they come. There are also some glimpses of a completely different family dynamic through Nick's friend, Matt. The things we do for family, those ties that bind us together--those are the things that really matter, even if they might mean something different to each person or manifest in different ways. But it's important that we notice and recognize the ways people show they care, even if it might not always be the way we would show it or the way we would prefer.
