What the Heart Wants - Jerry Cole - Bog

Brent Strome has just moved to Chicago from his childhood home in New York. Deciding to set up his own dog-walking business, he sets about making friends and finding clients, putting aside his dream of wanting to become a journalist. When he accidentally runs into his next-door neighbor - who also has a dog - Brent thinks he's a lucky guy. Marc Bergeron is a quiet neighbor, and when Brent finds him having a panic attack in the foyer of the apartment building, he helps out as best he can. Though he has trouble making friends, there's something about Marc that has Brent thinking about him. When Marc reveals that he used to be a Marine and was discharged due to bereavement and PTSD, Brent is determined to help Marc with whatever he needs. Though they manage to get more clients between them, and Brent successfully introduces Marc to his friends, the tension between them grows at Brent's inability to help Marc as much as he wants to. Their happiness hangs by a thread; with Brent deciding upon an article for his blog, and with Marc actually making progress with his social reclusion, can they overcome the lies and secrets between them? Will their relationship stand the test of their co-dependency, or will it all fall apart before it really gets started?Please Note: This book contains adult language & steamy adult activities, it is intended for 18] Adults Only.
