"A Match Made in a Want Ad"
When they say be careful what you wish for, do you pay attention?
Neither did Oliver Tunstead.

Oliver wishes for nothing more than to get his mind off his crappy bartending job, pile of debt big enough to swallow him whole, and playboy ex-boyfriend/boss who refuses to back off. Too bad distractions, like the hot little convertible he has his eye on, cost megabucks. And Oliver is flat broke. Renting the spare bedroom in his rundown beachfront cottage is his only option to pick up the cash he needs--a risky proposition, as Oliver is the polar opposite of a people-person. When he responds to a bizarre ad in the Waterfront Gazette seeking summer housing, he gets more than he bargained for. But Oliver can cope... After all, how much harm can a single quirky tenant do to his tightly guarded life in three short months?

Where Oliver is a loner by design, urban cowboy Bodie is a loner by necessity. A family dispute long ago dropkicked him onto the path of a lifelong wanderer. This changes when Bodie moves into the tiny beachfront cottage and starts working the door at Oliver's bar.

Despite Oliver and Bodie's nearly paralyzing instinct to avoid commitment, they fall into a wary romance. And to their surprise, life as a couple is sweetly satisfying; that is, until their jealous boss devises a cruel plan to destroy the tentative bond they've built. True to form, Bodie hits the road, leaving Oliver to lick his wounds alone.

Can these wounded souls defy their urge to flee and fight for love?

**Trigger Warning: discussion of childhood sexual molestation of adult character, graphic physical violence, off-page coerced sexual relationship





ALL MY REVIEWS CAN BE FOUND ON MY BLOG: ABSTRACT BOOKS

'Born for Leaving' is a MM Romance written by Jude Monroe. This book was one heartbreaking tale of love and loss!!

I rarely read MM Romance. The only author that I have read before this book was K.webster. But there was something eye-catching about this book that had me grabbing this one. And what an amazing choice that was! This book is a definite read for all the contemporary MM Romance lovers out there!!

This author just shredded my soul without mercy! Both Oliver and Bodie have a special place in my heart now. Their tale was one of love and so much angst. This author forced me to feel so many emotions , that I had to take breaks while reading to digest it all! I have read a lot of books and there is nothing I love more than a good soul twisting book that makes you feel so much. This book had that.



This book had all the rides you could imagine in a book. There were the calm moments and the disastrous ones too! When the HEA hit finally at the last , I took such a huge breath of satisfaction! Because there were no characters who deserve a big goofy HEA than Bodie and Oliver! A definite recommendation to all contemporary MM readers out there!
