My Review: 5/5 Stars

Ash has loved Max since forever, but with Max being straight he knew nothing could ever happen. And when Max got his first serious girlfriend in college, he knew he had to move on. That's when his eyes finally opened to Ollie, Max's brother. But years have passed and Ollie and Ash are over and Ash is in a new relationship. One that comes crumbling down when he realizes he doesn't love this new man. And when he comes home, he finds Max kissing their old friend Jordan. A guy. Ash has never been so lost. For Max, it took him a while to realize that his feelings for Ash were more than friendship. It was in college he realizes that he was in love with Ash but as he tried to gather his courage to tell him, Ash announces him and Ollie are together. Their timing just never seems to work out right. Especially when Ash walks in on him kissing Jordan to see if his attraction was to Ash or guys in general. Cue another bad timing situation. But with it comes revelations. That they both have feelings for the other but having something between them can't happen. Max won't betray Ollie no matter his feelings for Ash. But what if Ollie would be okay with it? What if they can be together? Max is ready to fight for Ash. Something he should have done a long time ago. I was so curious about this story because like the title says, it's complicated. But a lesson that when you find the one you are meant to be with, you fight for them with all you have.
