A second chance is terrifying…when you never stopped loving him.

Shane Campbell thought leaving was the right choice. It was easier to run than risk everything—his heart, his future, the boy he loved but could never have. Now he’s back in Mesa, older, out, and ready to build a life he doesn’t have to hide from… Except the one person he never got over is the one person he hurt the most.

Carter Davis has always lived in survival mode. Between his volatile father, a fractured home, and relationships that never last, he’s learned one thing—don’t let anyone get too close. But when Shane walks back into his life like no time has passed, all those old feelings come rushing back…stronger, messier, and impossible to ignore.

What starts as a second chance at friendship quickly turns into stolen glances, late-night confessions, and a heat neither of them can fight. Because Shane has always been Carter’s safe place. And Carter has always had Shane’s heart…even when he didn’t know what to do with it. But love isn’t simple when the past still hurts.

Carter isn’t out. His father’s abuse is escalating. And the more their relationship grows, the more dangerous everything becomes—especially when someone from Shane’s past refuses to let him go. When secrets explode and danger turns real, Shane is faced with losing the man he loves all over again. And Carter has to decide if he’s brave enough to choose love…even if it costs him everything.

Catching His Heart is book 2 in the Mesa Boys series and is a steamy MM romance featuring childhood friends to lovers, a bi awakening, forced proximity, hurt/comfort, found family, and a love that refuses to let go, even when everything is trying to tear it apart.

Step into a world of messy first loves, protective devotion, and boys who fight for each other—no matter the cost.
