I absolutely loved Bleeding Like Me. It's no doubt one of the best mm books that I have read in a while. I don't know if you have seen the show but Jackson and Evan reminded me so much of Mickey and Ian from Shameless. I was devastated when their storyline ended in the show, but this book allowed the characters to live on for me. I was just wondering if the book was in anyway inspired by the show?

Riley Parks Thank you so much! I have seen Shameless and love Mickey and Ian. What a compliment! I’m glad it was meaningful to you. Jackson definitely has that Mickey vibe but I’m not sure about Evan and Ian lol. I would share my face claims for them but I don’t want to ruin the visual you have.!
