"Something was building between us, something that took my breath away from anticipation, but also created anxiety about how little I could handle the possibilty of it all going wrong."

Mikey and Nunzio's story captivated me from the start to the very end. I just could not put it down. Best friends for 20 years that become much more. But not without the heartbreak, drama and pain and Mikey overcoming his struggles and realizing Nunzio is his soulmate.
"What I wanted, what I needed, and the fact that we belonged together. He’d known all along, and I was just catching up."
For me this book was real, tender, steamy and just plain beautiful. Lover every word. Highly HIGHLY recommended.

Jase saved Carey's life i Afghanistan, and the feelings Jase had for his friend were forever, and deeply embedded in his heart.
"You don’t know how long I’ve wanted this, wanted you.”
Carey was indebted to Jase but he also wanted to forget everything that happened during the War. They remained friends but it was a bit strained until Carey decides to take a visit to Jase, in San Diego. And what happens there was unexpected for both of them. The discovery, the passion, the love... and loss.
“I love you. Please don’t leave me.”
The support Jess and Carey gave each other was just beyond words. War is War and both have very difficult inner battles to overcome but with each by their side they can take it one day at a time.

In summary
“The best kind of love is friendship that has caught fire.”

Beautiful epic love story.

Where to start... Beautifully written love story that spans 15 years. Epic love. Cal and Jim...*sigh* The power of their friendship. The power of their love. The things those two meant to each other. The things they sacrificed for each other. Oh, dear... I don’t have enough words...
And the heartbreak...
“He knew it was too late. Still, he whispered a plea. “Jim.”
Semper Fi was possibly one of the sweetest and saddest love stories. Both of the main characters were two beautiful souls, two beautiful unassuming men and I think that is why I found so endearing.
“You’ve always loved me for who I am, good and bad.” Cal took a shaky breath. “I always will.” "
This book is a historical love story, but it hardly felt like a historical for me. I loved how it alternates between telling the story of Jim and Cal’s friendship beginning in 1942 during WWII, and then back to present day 1948 when Cal moves to help Jim on the apple orchard.

I loved to watch how their love for each other is finally and fully revealed and consummated.
I dreamed of you like this." Jim's eyes were bright, and his hair stuck up. Sweat beaded on his lip. "Out here in the orchard naked in the moonlight."
Cal drew him down for a deep kiss . . . "How did it end?"
"However we want."

Overall loved so very much. Highly, highly, highly recommended. One of the best books I've read this year.

Short, angsty and beautiful. Loved. Recommended.

Beneath the Stain is Amy Lane at her best and finest. She has taken a story of four brothers living in a small and narrow minded town and with the angst and desperation of just surviving in the environment they have to grow up in, she gives us Mackey Sanders. Mackey is the force that takes him and his brothers out of Tyson California and gives them a life they never dreamed of.
I loved the way the story takes us from their very roots as just a group of teens hanging out getting high, to finding their way through music, into what happens when they are thrust into being full fledged rock stars and the backlash of dealing with that fame as well as their own personal demons.
And love... no LOVE... just so so amazing.
"Can you even breathe?” Trav asked over his head. “It’s not air if it doesn’t smell like you."
I put the last instalment of this book down with wet eyes, a tired sigh and happy smile. Travis and Mackey may have stolen my heart forever. So well written, so beautifully spun, this was a truly stunning read. For me this is one of the best if not THE best written by Amy Lane and best for 2014 so far.
"Beneath the satin" with all its pain and angst will tear you apart, but it's love and beauty will glue you back together again.
