Summary

After the death of his wife, Tanner Rowe takes a step toward making her dying wish come true and buys the house with the dilapidated barn she'd been inexplicably drawn to in the picturesque Upper Peninsula. But after a year, he still can't get past his grief long enough to make the repairs he'd promised.

Recently out of prison, Cole Lachlan has little to his name. Homeless, broke, and without many options as a felon, Cole heads to Red Bluff with hopes of a second chance. There he meets Tanner, whose loneliness mirrors his own, and soon Cole is trading room and board for rebuilding the burned-out barn on Tanner's property that hasn't been touched in 70 years.

Turns out, the barn holds more secrets than either of them could have imagined. After unearthing a hidden journal from 1948, Cole and Tanner spend their evenings poring over the pages, reading about a young man pining after his best friend. The deeper they delve into this forbidden affair from the past, the more Cole and Tanner's own relationship shifts - from acquaintances to friends...to undeniable attraction.

But as they begin to deal with the newness of falling in love in the wake of Tanner's loss and Cole's past, they also become more determined to unravel the mystery of the young lovers who've captured their hearts, the rumors about the fire, and what really happened that fateful night.

love story of mating souls

a tale of two guys who fall in love as they find out the story behind the burnt out barn from 1948
story highlights how far we have come from, how wrong people thought back then
narration was good, the two narrators complement each other

Simply beautiful!

The dual perspective throughout this book makes it really special. Having the two narrators gives each character a real sense of identity. The paralles between the main story and the story of Tom and Charlie leaves you wanting more and more. This is a book I will revisit.

Grew on me

At first relentlessly gruff and humourless- but gave way to a tenderness that really won me over and I became quite addicted.

Had me bawling my eyes out, amazing story.

Two love stories 70 years apart. One where the men can show their love and the other where is is dishonourable. Present day both men are lost in grief and down on their luck. finding each other shines new light on life! Finding a journal written 70 years ago they both learn about the love story of two other men who lost everything for their right to be together. It was an amazing story from both authors. It had me crying on several occasions but also willing both couples on for their HEA.

Performance: on some occasions the editing was bitty and the recording of one voice actor was quieter than the other meaning i had to change volume settings often.

Second chances and romance

Beautiful romantic start and blooming love but interwoven with a story of terrible tragedy and a hateful crime. All comes together with the living having a happy ending.
