Always Love You More (Baxston Boys #2)

Perfect for readers who love angsty coming-of-age romances with found family, a broody bad-boy MMC, and a black cat FMC.

Jameson Baxston was brought up to be cold, ruthless, and closed off. Raised by a criminal father, and bearing a notorious last name, he’s learned to keep people at a distance. That is, until a new recruit’s intriguing younger sister starts hanging around. As much as he tries to stay away, he can’t help being drawn to her.

Sam Barlowe shies away from the attention that always seems to follow her. With a difficult home life, a lack of friends, and an attitude that often gets her into trouble, she’s never felt like she fits in. But when she meets Jameson, a boy with walls as high as her own, she sees herself in someone for the first time.

Just as they start to let each other in, tragedy strikes and their worlds are turned upside down. As they both slip back into old habits—doubt and self-destruction—their relationship is put to the test.

Will their demons get the best of them, or will they find a way to love each other more?

Always Love You More is a prequel to A Yes or No Question, following Sam and Jameson’s story. It can be read before or after reading A Yes or No Question.
