Hi! Great question.
Actually, I would say that Madoc was in a strange position compared to the others. He was the only one that was friends with Jared AND Tate independently. Juliet and Fallon probably wouldn't have been friends with Jared without Tate, and Jax had a stronger bond with Jared than anyone else, except for Tate. Now Madoc, on the other hand, was the only one that loved Jared and Tate regardless of each other. They were separate entities to him, and his love for one was just as strong as the other.
While Madoc initially understood Jared's need for distance, he saw the toll it took on Tate--how she withdrew--and he felt, at the time, that Tate needed the reassurance of his commitment more. He wanted to take care of her, and yes, he was a angry with Jared. Was he correct for abandoning him? Probably not. But remember that Jared's departure was hard on everyone, and Madoc felt he lost a brother just as much as Jax had, and he hated seeing Tate hurting. After what she went through in high school and then having her heart broken, yes, he wanted to be there for her and be on her side, no matter how much he cared for his best friend.
It didn't take much for Jared to win Madoc back, though. As soon as he saw that he wanted Tate back, and that Jared had, in fact, needed him, he put it behind him.
I hope that answers your question!

so, the only problem I have with your books is that they turn me in some sort of fictional book characters slut, I mean one second I´m convinced I like Jared and then I prefer Madoc swetness but then Jax is kinda of sexier, but then I want to Michael to rip my panties and then I want Tyler to bend me over and spank me making me call him Mr. Marek. Which one is your favorite among this sexy and incredible guys?

First off, I absolute love your Fall Away series and I cannot wait for your future novels! You have a way of sucking the reader in and completely capture the reader into this great world of fiction. My question is this, are there any books that you have found to be a inspiration to you and your writing or just an inspiration as a whole? Also, if there is any books that you would recommend for me to enjoy?
