Lost Boys Series by Jessie Walker

Pride. Will and Waylon have been through hell and back—more than once. But they’re still standing, still loving each other, still embracing their found family. And that’s something Will is stupidly proud of. He’s happier than he’s ever been, and more in love than he ever thought possible. He just hopes he can find a way to make Waylon believe in them as much as he does. Pride... morePride. Will and Waylon have been through hell and back—more than once. But they’re still standing, still loving each other, still embracing their found family. And that’s something Will is stupidly proud of. He’s happier than he’s ever been, and more in love than he ever thought possible. He just hopes he can find a way to make Waylon believe in them as much as he does. Pride. Not an event Waylon ever thought he’d embrace, but what better place to learn to be true to himself than at Pride in Philadelphia? After all, he did promise the love of his life that, one day, he’d hold his hand in public. Surely, Waylon can slay his demons for Will No-Middle-Name Foster and take pride in the life they’re making. Pride. Jeremy’s moving on… or at least, he’s trying to. But when his friends from back home decide to march in a Pride parade, he is incapable of turning down the chance to celebrate something he never thought he’d have with the people who mean the most to him. Even if it means sucking up his pride and facing the one person he’s been trying to avoid for months now Pride Mason’s committed to his sobriety, to making amends, and to making the Lost Boys a success, all while proving that he can handle his life. Too bad any shred of pride he has dissolves the second he comes face to face with the one person who has the power to send him spiraling. All We Are is a glimpse into the lives of the Lost Boys, the past that haunts them, and the bright future that beckons. This story was previously published as part of Worthy: A Pride Anthology. It's highly recommended Where There's A Will and If There's A Way be read prior to jumping into this novella. less
