Publisher's Summary

Lucky

Two years ago I humiliated myself by declaring my love to an older man who clearly didn’t share my feelings. And that’s fine. One day Zach will come around. Meanwhile, I’ve built a life for myself in northern Montana, pursuing my college degree while working hard toward certification in high-risk alpine search and rescue on the side. And perhaps I’ve kept the danger part a secret from my two dads. After all, what they don’t know won’t hurt them...

Everything’s going exactly as planned until my dads send Zach to check on me just as I’m dealing with an ex who doesn’t understand the meaning of the word no. It’s bad enough Zach still thinks of me as a child; now he also thinks I’m incapable of looking out for myself. I need to get him off my back before he finds out I’m not heading to Wyoming for summer break like everyone thinks. I’m going to Glacier National Park to learn how to rappel from helicopters...

Zach

Two years ago I wanted something I couldn't have, so I threw myself back into my job as an Army Ranger and wound up scarred in more ways than one. When the army dumps my sorry self back into the real world, it’s time to start over. I accept a summer job teaching high-risk search and rescue. On the way there, all I have to do is peek in on little Lucky Reed and make sure he’s okay.

He’s not. Someone has it out for him, and I’ll be damned if I’m going to let him get hurt on my watch. My plan is to keep him safe until he heads south for his summer job playing trail guide to tourists. Once he’s gone, I’ll be free to head to Glacier where my biggest challenge will be keeping a handful of alpine search and rescue students safe as they learn how to dangle from helicopters high above the Rocky Mountains.

It’s all fine. Until it’s not. Danger follows us to Glacier, and by the time I finally start seeing Lucky as more than the awkward teenager he used to be, I wonder if it’s too late to convince him that this scarred soldier sees him as anything but little anymore.

This and the others in the series

I really really enjoyed these stories. I found the depth to each and every character amazing. I fully enjoyed the connection between Bennett and Xander. Their story was beautiful and bittersweet. I’m glad they finally came back to each other like they did. If they had done it any other way who knows if Bennet would have met Luckyand he is a lovely boy.

Aiden and Ash’s story was gut wrenching, heart clenching, sit-on-the-edge of my seat waiting for every next word kind of wonderful. I loved how the two stories tied together with aiden going to the party in Haden. I absolutely adored the ending, how Ash shows up there and it just blows Aiden away. My heart burst in all the best ways.

Jake and Oz’s story was so sweet. They both loved each other so very much. Jake really was right aboutOz chasing him and not letting go when he talked about it with Zach in this book. Lovely story lovely get together and amazing and thrilling action. I also really enjoyed the little side piece added in with Wade and Zoe. Cute little het story with a single pregnant mother to be. My heart squeezed.

Above And Beyond was so perfect and despite a couple things that had me confused a bit is my favourite of the series. Zach’s story broke my heart and Lucky and his unashamed love for Zach was just so pure and beautiful. The way they came together, how they got to know each other and fell in love was so realistic and beautiful. Those rules were hilarious because they were never followed and Lucky knew he KNEW that Zach had to love him. He had to. He was just so scared. Lucky’s story about his mom and how he grew up actually made me cry. Honestly I already knew it from the first book but hearing it in full detail was really sad and as a parent I just wanted to scoop him up and love him.

I hope there is more to this series!! There are other gay guys in the small town so here is hoping 😜😍😍😍
