Little Boy Lost: Book Five Finally together, Brian McAllister and Jamie Mayfield have risked everything in a desperate escape. Jamie is now free of his tormentor, Steven O'Dell... for the moment. But Brian and Jamie know that one wrong choice could lead Steven to their door. With the strength of Brian and his friends to protect him, Jamie hides and finds the one person he is truly afraid ofâhimself. The long, lonely hours in the place Leo found for them to stay leave Jamie with nothing to do but think. He thinks about Brian, about the direction their lives should take. He thinks about his parents, about the industry he left behind. Mostly, though, he thinks about drugs. Jamie wants to feel good again, forget about his self-hatred, and stop the gnawing cravings that prey upon his mind and body even as he tries to start a new life with Brian. One moment of weakness may prove to be fatal for them both. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

Jamie was lost before, but even though Brian manages to get him away from the abusive asshole who basically held him prisoner, it is not as easy to get rid of the addiction, or his defeatist way of thinking. This, of course, it utterly realistic, but makes this book very hard to read in places. Jamie holds on to his last shreds of hope until he can hold on no longer. Even though he finally realizes there is a way out, by then it is too late to save his relationship with Brian. Remaining friends with the man he still desperately loves isn’t enough. I am impressed with Jamie’s strength: despite everything he still fights back and does his best to reclaim his life.
If you like stories about men desperate enough to do anything to protect those they love, if you think you can face the realities of drug dependency and what it can do to a human being, if you are already hooked on this series, you will love this volume. I must admit that I suspect I’ll love it more once I have read the final book and can appreciate the tension build-up in this book for the genius it really is. Right now, I am too worried about Jamie and what is next for him and Brian.
If you think you are strong enough to deal with Jamie and Brian’s lives – warning: even just reading about them might tear you apart emotionally - give this series a go. It is brilliantly written and highly addictive.
