Publisher Description
I’ve been alone long enough.
As a chart-topping country singer, I’m living the dream. While my family is all back in Austin, embracing their happily-ever-afters, I’m on the road on a sold-out tour.
I should feel ecstatic, yet all I am is lonely.
Maybe that’s why I find myself drawn to a fan who pops up at one of my shows. Something about the way he watches me on stage has me thinking…he knows my secret. And after the first kiss, I can’t seem to let him go. But Jensen Miles has some secrets of his own:
He isn’t just a regular fan. He’s a preacher.
And not just any preacher—the new preacher at my dad’s church.
Where I come from, preachers don’t have filthy mouths and dirty hookups, let alone with a male country singer.
But Jensen has scars like mine. They just run deeper.
We can’t stay away from each other, though. One night turns into nearly every city of the tour; the two of us sneak around backstage, onto tour buses, and in hotel rooms. And while I’ve never been happier…I’m tired of hiding.
With Jensen, I might be able to escape the monsters from my past—even if the scariest one has just been set free. With Jensen, we can outrun our demons together.
With Jensen, I’m finally ready to come home.

Phenomenal Story, Series and Listen🎧Compelling & Emotional!
Sara Cate’s “Goode Brothers” series is among my all-time favorites, and this book, with its exceptional writing, intricate plot, and complex characters, is a prime example of why. This book is Isaac’s story, the youngest Goode brother, and the one who got away, or rather ran away and became a country music artist, Theo Vigil, a rising star. Introduced in the earlier books with brief glimpses into his life and relationship with his brothers. All that left you wanting to know more, or rather needing to know more, and Cate delivers, in a way, bringing us full circle. Isaac is not out in the public eye, since maintaining a certain image for his fans was important, but it is getting harder for him, and he is living a lonely life. That changes for him after meeting Jensen Miles, someone he met after his show and felt an instant connection with. Jensen Miles lives and works in Isaac’s hometown, but he comes with baggage, secrets and past demons. It was great getting to know these characters, both amazing, solid characters, despite their hardships and upbringing. I loved watching them get to know each other and see their relationship morph into something so much more. Cate weaved a complex and mighty fine web around these two, bringing their two worlds together and showing they have a lot more in common. It was also great to see the Goode brothers come together and watch the estranged Isaac reunite with his family, Truett excluded, mostly anyway. I loved all the layers of this story and how it all played out, with a perfect balance of drama, angst, some heartrending moments, heartfelt emotions, and steamy romance. Sara Cate, thank you for this amazing story, series and emotional rollercoaster ride.
🎧📚🎧 Teddy Hamilton, Dane Anderson, and Ava Lucas did a fantastic job voicing the characters and delivering a perfect portrayal of each. I loved how they took each role and made it their own, sounding believable and just as I imagined the characters to sound. Hamilton nailed it as Isaac and Anderson as Jensen, delivering amazing performances, grasping every aspect of their character’s personality and demeanor, as well as their every emotion. Ava Lucas jumps in covering various female roles and was just as amazing. These superbly talented voice artists are entertaining storytellers, and their riveting performance keeps you glued to the story.
