I always get excited for a new RJ Scott release and this book was no exception. I read this story last night and loved it. ย I posted about it this morning but wanted to share further details. Below you’ll find anย excerpt and don’t forget to enter the giveaway.
The Blurb…
When Andrew Craig dies, he leaves his brother Jason a list of places that he wanted to visit but couldn’t. Attending a school reunion, London, Stonehenge, these are all on the list and Jason is determined to cross everything off and work through his grief at the same time.
Closeted soap actor Mark Wesley is shocked when a blast from the past looks him up, and devastated when he realizes he will never have a chance to make things right.
Together Jason and Mark agree to work on the list. But what happens when Jason and Mark grow closer, when passion and even love begins to grow?
Was this what Andrew wanted to happen all along between his brother and his friend?
Excerpt
โYou should write to the studio, sir. Meanwhile, you may want to go stand over there. Some of the actors will be out later to see their adoring fans as per usual.โ The guard sounded firm at first, but the second part of the sentence was dripping with sarcasm.
โIโm not a fan,โ Jason protested. He looked over again at the chattering women. A couple were staring at him and pointing. Shuffling his feet and suddenly feeling uncomfortable, he wondered where to start to explain so he could get in. โI tried to find out where Mark lived and wanted to track down his familyโฆโ He stopped. I sound like some kind of creepy stalker fan. โLook, can you just maybe give him a note for me?โ
Bill looked like he was ten seconds away from calling the cops on Jason. That would be just freaking great. How would he explain an arrest record for stalking to the education board when he was back at school? Finally Bill motioned toward a pile of books and notes and teddies that sat on the chair in his small hut.
โYou can add a note to the pile.โ
The pile? Jason didnโt have time for a note to be added to any kind of disorganized heap. He had exactly two days to get in, talk to Mark, and get him to agree to number one on his brotherโs crazy-assed bucket list. The reunion is Saturday. We need to get home.
โIf you could move away, sir,โ Bill said.
Part of Jason wanted to take a stand and not move, but rebellion wasnโt really part of his makeup and he walked a few steps back. A voice to his side had Jason twisting on his heel.
โIโm sorryโโ
โI said you werenโt him and that you were actually a lot better-looking than the Scottish guy whose name I forget, Niall or Nick or something. Also, up close, you look way younger.โ She tilted her head and let out a soft tinkling laugh, then placed a hand flat on his jacket. Jason instantly stepped backward. He wasnโt sure what Days was, but it didnโt sound like a good thing, not the way the rest of the group of women were staring at him like he was a side of beef on sale at the market.
