Safe Place by Jay Northcote

This was a very lovely second installment in the series.
I really liked getting to know these characters and their different life struggles, I think it was really great that the author showed us to different upbringings. These guys were at different points in their lives so honestly, their way of looking at the world was different but there wasn't a disconnect between them. They worked really fine as friends and lovers.
One of the things that I love and appreciate the most about the author is how he includes so much representation in his books, he makes these tiny moments in the stories that hit you right in the chest because comments or actions can be huge for someone that deals with the judgment from close-minded people, so seeing those moment makes you feel like he is trying to make these stories as real as possible.
I hope we get the chance to see these guys in future books and how they are doing with their lives because even though the book does a lot of happy, in the end, it's about young guys so they have their lives ahead of them, their HEA it's just starting.
sidenote: Alex's mom story made me really happy! it showed that people can be wrong but everyone needs a chance to grow and change.
