Flames — J. Scott Coatsworth

Alex always thought love was enough to keep him and Gio together. Why did they need wedding rings or legal certificates? But now, with Gio lost in a coma after a fire has destroyed their home, his partner's mother banishes Alex from his side.Locked in a gray limbo inside his head, memories are all Gio has left, and the urge to let go is getting stronger.Nothing can keep Alex from Gio's side, even if he has to break the rules. In their stolen moments alone together, Alex fights to reach Gio, one memory at a time.What if Alex's voice is the only thing that can bring Gio back?
