    About this ebook

    They've come together for Valentine's Day, but can the romance last?

     

    Brandon Kidd thought he'd overcome his demons. He thought he'd conquered his addiction to booze and his need to be promiscuous. He thought he'd left his depression behind. Why? He met and is dating Aydin, the man who stokes his muse. But the depression and his insecurity have come back, and he's also got to pass his annual review for his fine arts program. He's got to get through the grueling review, open up to Aydin and have the Valentine's Day he deserves?

     

    Aydin loves Brandon. He sees the changes in his boyfriend and wants to help, but how do you help when you don't know the problem exactly? To compound the problem, Brandon's brother, Benson, has started causing trouble. Benson doesn't want his brother to be gay, let alone in a relationship. Aydin found the strength to admit he wanted to be with Brandon. Aydin's come into his own. Will he be enough for Brandon or will the crushing outside influence be too much to overcome?

      Chapter One

      H oly shit, I’m scared .

      Brandon Kidd blew out a long breath and rubbed his hands on his jeans. Every year, the fine art students were subjected to a review. The professors wanted to ensure the students were progressing where they should be in their individual programs as well as performing up to standards. He hated these reviews. The idea of standing in front of three professors and discussing his accomplishments in the painting and drawing programs made his stomach churn. If they’d wanted him to produce an exhibition for the student gallery or even set an exhibit up at one of the many local galleries, he could do that in his sleep.

      Besides, why was he having his review in February? The rest of the reviews wouldn’t be until April. He stood back and debated the placement of his works on the wall. Fuck. He never should’ve switched majors from a generic fine arts one to a focus in drawing and painting. The students who had been in the drawing and painting departments the longest chose first, and, of course, they chose the farthest out dates. He’d chosen his major after many of them and now had one of the first dates for his review because the others wanted more time to prepare.

      Part of him cared about his review. This was the meeting to determine if he was ready to move in the program. A grade depended on this review. But the rest of him didn’t care much. Why? He knew his talents and how he’d progressed since focusing on drawing and painting versus a general fine arts focus. He knew his abilities, and passing shouldn’t be a problem. Still, he couldn’t tamp the nervous energy down. He arranged the photographs one more time, then stepped back to admire his work.

      Looking at Aydin warmed him to his core. They hadn’t even had sex yet, but he couldn’t imagine his life or art without Aydin. He tended to march straight into fucking on the first date, but something about Aydin made him think twice. He wanted to move slower and get to know him better. The choice couldn’t have been better. They’d become friends as well as lovers, and the relationship was solid. They weren’t competing for dates or within their respective programs at the college. He couldn’t wait to see to Aydin. They weren’t living together, but might as well be since they were together so much.

      As soon as he finished the review, he’d head straight to the apartment, then to Aydin’s. Christ. It was Valentine’s Day, and he couldn’t even spend it with the one he loved—not yet.

      The door creaked, and Brandon straightened his spine. He turned, but instead of the trio of professors, Jake Bunch strolled into the room. His dark eyes shimmered.

      Hi.

      How’s it going? Brandon stuck his hands into his pockets. You’re not on the review team. What’s up?

      No, I’m not. I wouldn’t want to be. Think about it—everyone’s afraid of the team for fear they’ll be yanked from their programs. Doesn’t sound fun in the least. Jake strode up to the photos of Aydin. Who’s the guy?

      Are you being reviewed soon? He wasn’t sure
