In Pieces — Julie Lynn Hayes

Ryan Fremont's life reads like a tragic novel. His mother died when he was a baby, the stepbrother he'd come to love disappeared over ten years ago, his career as an author has tanked, and his father died just as Ryan was about to begin a new job with a church metal band. But life goes on, and so does Ryan. Imagine Ryan's surprise to be unexpectedly reunited with the person he misses more than anything. Life is looking up. But Ryan has questions he isn't sure how to ask Ben, the stepbrother he lost all those years ago. And he isn't sure about some of the people who surround Salvation, the band Ryan's working for. Can Ryan dispel the ghosts of the past so that he and Ben can have a future together? Or are some things too strong to be overcome?
