When Blue starts GED classes and expands his social circle, Derek affords him room to grow, trusting love is enough to keep his restless pet in line.
That love is put to the test when Cameron Carter reappears in Blue's life. A hurtful crush from Blue's school days, Cameron is a reformed adult now and seeks absolution for old wrongs. While Blue must find it in his heart to forgive Cameron, the greater challenge lies in keeping his unrequited desire for the former bully at bay.
Derek finds himself torn between enforcing boundaries and allowing Blue closure to heal old wounds. Meanwhile, Cameron struggles to forgive himself for the pain he once caused the boy he secretly loved. As Cameron and Blue begin the road to recovery, the sizzling chemistry between them can no longer be ignored. Caught between two strong-willed men, can Blue prove his loyalty to one while denying his attraction for the other?
Or, is it possible that Blue can have them both? Katrina Strauss tests the boundaries of faith, loyalty, forgiveness, and love in Close to Me, the second installment of her BDSM yaoi romance series, Blue Ruin.

Blue Ruin: Some kind of Stranger and enjoyed it, so when I began this book I was hoping that it would be as good as the first.
This book was really Blue's story, rather than Derek's and whilst we do get some of the book from Derek's point of view, we...more...]]>
