Blurb
The call comes when Beckett Adler least expects it. He’s made a new life for himself in Vermont and has a law practice of his own. After four years he’s even stopped wearing his wedding ring. So when he finds out his husband, bull rider Skyler Paulson, has been seriously injured at an event, he isn’t sure what he wants to do. He knows what’s right though, so he heads down to Baltimore to bring his man home.
Sky knows his injuries are a career-ender, and he can’t believe Beck has come for him after all this time. He’s not a hundred percent sure what went wrong with their marriage and he has no idea how to be anything but a bull rider. But he wants this second chance, so he grabs at it with both hands.
There’s a lot Sky has to learn, from how to walk again to how to settle down with the man he loves. Beck needs to learn to open up and how to be more trusting. For their marriage to work again, both men will have to find a way to meet in the middle. Because neither of them wants to be wrecked anymore.

Review
My Rating - 5 Stars!
Wrecked is a stunning second chance romance by Jodi Payne and BA Tortuga.
First of all, this book grabbed my attention with the estrangement of husbands Sky and Beckett. Second of all, a macho, gay bull-rider? I mean, really, a gay bull-rider? Hell yes!
Estranged from his husband, Beckett gets a call that his husband, Sky, is injured. The call he's always dreaded, it doesn't matter than they haven't spoken in years, Beckett doesn't hesitate to run off to see Sky.
Their backstory is heavily rooted in trust, or lack there-of, as Beckett never trusted his husband with his co-worker, Peter. Beckett never wanted him out bull riding, in constant danger, as well as probably cheating on him.
It was an instant love back when, but they've been apart for four years now. What follows is an interesting second chance romance, as an injury reunites them. Though they quickly fall back into each other's lives, their problems still exist.
Their journey is full of complications, differences of opinion, and ultimately compromise and understanding. Sky lives a life of risk, which is their biggest problem, as Beckett hates Sky's dedication to his career. It's a story of the fine line between looking out for your husband and being true to yourself. It's about the fine line between wanting your husband to change and knowing that what you hate about him is what you love about him.
I absolutely love Wrecked. Jodi Payne and BA Tortuga have created this fantastic story of a love that never wavered, despite the pain and years apart. It's a complex story of trying to find a way to be together, despite strong differences in opinion on things that effect the heart of their relationship. It's beautiful, raw and gritty, and definitely worth a read when you're looking for something messy.
