Worth The Payne (Worth It)

I don't have time to grieve. I have to hold it together, because we can't afford for me to fall apart.Jace Payne never dreamed he'd be a father at twenty-four - or an orphan, either. After his parents pass away in a plane crash, he's determined to do right by his two brothers - regardless of what anyone else has to say. The complication? His parents didn't want Jace to raise his siblings - they wanted his dad's best friend to adopt them, instead."He's beautiful. I only want to help him. It's my sacred duty, and I take that responsibility as seriously as my Hippocratic Oath."Rowan Baron spent most of his life in love with his best friend. For the most part, it didn't cause any issues - but a falling out a couple years ago means that the news of Aaron's death and Rowan's new responsibilities catches him completely by surprise. He's conflicted - he believes in Jace, but he's also got a responsibility to see Aaron's wishes through. If that wasn't complex enough, he's quickly shouldering another problem... his attraction to Jace has him in way over his head. Welcome to Worthington, Texas, where the heat doesn't just rise in the summer - you'll feel it all year long in these stories of older men and their younger lovers. Every book in the Worth It series can be read on its own, but with so many familiar characters to love, why stop with just one? This book features the pain of working through complicated grief, the rush of allowing a new love to bloom, and the hope that comes when you form a new family to protect and treasure.
