Series: All Saints, Book 1
Jonas needs Tate. He just doesn’t know it yet.
Or at least, he doesn’t want to admit it. Because there is no way Jonas Ashcroft is gay. He’s a straight, carefree frat boy player, just like any good son of a conservative state senator. If only his struggle to convince everyone—especially himself—didn’t leave him so miserable. No matter how many girls or bottles he drowns himself in, Jonas can neither escape nor accept who he is.
Enter Tate. He’s smart, confident, and instantly sees right through Jonas’s surly exterior. Sure, he’s done things in life he’s not proud of, but he knows who he is and what he wants. And what he wants is Jonas. As their easy friendship intensifies into something more, Tate introduces Jonas to a life he’s never known. One filled with acceptance and sex and a love that terrifies and excites them both.
But some inner demons refuse to be shaken off so easily. When Jonas’s old life barges in, he faces a shattering choice, one that could destroy everything he and Tate have fought so hard for. Sometimes love just isn’t enough—and sometimes it’s exactly what you need.
Book One of All Saints, the brand-new series from A.M. Arthur.

I loved Jonas and Tate.
Tate is out and proud but Jonas is in denial about being gay. He banged all the girls he could while in a fraternity at college. After a “harmless” prank goes very wrong he is expelled from college and sent to live with his aunt and uncle who he barely knows.
Jonas’s father is a state senator and has always had unrealistic expectations of his only child. Jonas feels that nothing he has accomplished has ever made his father proud of him. He is sure he will be cut off financially if he comes out. He just wants to finish college so he can get a job and be free of his father forever.
Tate becomes Jonas’s first friend in his new hometown but their first meeting wasn’t at all indicative of how things will end up with them. Tate has been providing for his two younger sisters since their parents died a few years ago. He helps run a shelter for LGBTQ teens. He’s attracted to Jonas but knows better than to pine for a straight guy, but he’s getting mixed signals from Jonas and just can’t resist the pull he feels.
This book had my emotions all over the place. I felt so bad for Jonas; his father is an a$$. Fortunately, he finds love and support with his new family. Tate is wonderful and the way he cares for his sisters is inspiring.
A.M. Arthur has written a great start to her new All Saints series and I look forward to reading more of her books.
