High-school teacher West Connors struggled to put the pieces of his heart back together after the sudden departure of his best friend, Blake Thomas, from his life ten years ago. While loves have come and gone, West has never quite filled the hole in his heart Blake left behind.
Blake Thomas gets things done. As a handler for one of the top political fixers in the business, he focuses on work, friends, and one-night stands. He's fooled himself into thinking he's conquered the demons of his past until he runs into the best friend he was forced to leave behind when he was sixteen.
When their jobs force them into a fake relationship, Blake learns something about his childhood best friend and eventually about himself.
As they try to repair their damaged friendship, they find that moving forward can sometimes lead you back home.

So this is my first read from Kj Lewis, i have been following on Instagram and have been quite intrigued with the posts i had seen from Sunday Love. So when i saw that she was bringing a M/M read out which i love i had to jump in. And wow was i glad i did, Mondays with You was a beautiful heartbreaking read.
It can be read as a standalone and i adored it so much i have gone back and purchased Sunday Love and both Taylor made books. Because all the characters have pulled me in and i want to stay.
This story covers the lives of West and Blake, West is a school teacher he loves his job and gives his all to the job supporting the kids in and outside of school. His love life is a different matter he's always held himself back. After he lost his best friend and the only person he has ever loved suddenly 10 years ago left him devastated and unable to open himself up again.
Blake's upbringing was one that no one wants or deserved. Being brought up my his abusive uncle and a aunt who could have stepped in but never did. His one saving grace was his best friend West and his family they became his home until it was all cruelly ripped away from him shaping the man he his today. Tough on the outside, very protective of those around him. But underneath all that he's hurting for a past that he misses desperately.
"You deserve me, just like i deserve you. You deserve to be loved and cared for."
So when circumstances cause West and Blake's paths to cross, feelings of hurt, what if's, Where and why's surface. But also the feelings of home, friendship and love. Putting us on a rollercoaster of heartbreaking and heartfelt emotions as these two soul mates navigate their way to HEA.

KJ Lewis really gives us a fabulous read about second chances, forgiveness and love. She nailed the intensity between Blake and West, their connection was electric, intense and extremely hot! For her first M/M book this was definitely a hit for me and another read added to my favourite releases of 2017!!!
