Point of Contact
by Melanie Hansen
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Contemporary Romance (M/M)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
There'd
forever been a thread running through Trevor Estes's life—his son Riley, strong
and constant like heartbeat. But when Riley is killed in combat, everything in
Trevor's life unravels into a mess he doesn't know how to mourn.
Until
Jesse Byrne, Riley's friend and platoon mate, arrives on his doorstep with a
box of Riley's things. Jesse's all-too-familiar grief provides an unlikely
source of comfort for Trevor; knowing he's not alone is exactly what he needs.
Trevor never imagined he'd find someone who fills his heart with hope again. As
the pair celebrate Riley's memory, their unique bond deepens into something
irreplaceable—and something neither man can live without.
But
diving into a relationship can't be so simple. Being together means Trevor
risking the last link he has to his son...leaving Jesse to wonder if he'll ever
be enough, or if Trevor will always be haunted by the past.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
EXCERPT THREE:
Trevor
reached up to brush Jesse’s tears away, letting his thumb linger along his
cheek. “So thank you. Thanks for letting me see my son through you.”
Jesse’s
lips trembled. “I miss him. I miss him so much.”
Trevor
slid his hand to the back of Jesse’s neck. “I know.”
With
a small sob, Jesse reached out to wrap his arms around Trevor, pulling him
close. His body was shaking, tremors of grief Trevor knew only too well
wracking him from head to toe. All around them the world ebbed and flowed,
oblivious to the fact a twenty-year-old boy had been torn from it, leaving
behind two people who’d loved him and who now clung together, their shared pain
a strange sort of comfort.
Trevor
stroked Jesse’s hair as he shuddered against him, biting his own lip against
the tears that stung his eyes. This was Jesse’s fight, and Trevor marshaled
every ounce of composure he could, determined to be strong in return for this
man who’d given him so much.
“It’s
okay,” he murmured over and over. “It’s okay to miss him. I miss him, too.”

AUTHOR BIO:
Melanie Hansen likes
to consider herself a cynic, but at heart she’s a hopeless romantic. Every
morning she gets up before dawn to spend time with her characters, creating
stories that are deeply emotional, sometimes heartbreaking, but in the end
where love always wins. Melanie’s proud of the fact that two of her books have
been named as RT Book Reviews Top Picks.
She
grew up with an Air Force dad, ended up marrying a Navy man, and has lived and
worked all over the country. Melanie hopes to bring these rich and varied life
experiences to her stories about people finding love amidst real-life
struggles.
