**The Rebel County Universe stories originated in Kindle Vella. Now new stories release directly to Kindle** The grass isn't always greener on the other side... Joshua 'JJ' James has everything that he could ever have wanted. A thriving career, the best family and friends he could ask for, and more money than he can spend. But deep down, JJ is miserable. He hates his life, and he feels terribly lonely. When his friends realize the true extent of his depression, JJ finds himself in Ireland, under scrutiny, and being babysat by the man who broke his heart. Kieran Hamilton has never been able to forget the man he loved more than life itself. When things fell apart, he threw himself into his work and tried to move on, but he never could. Having found out about JJ, Kieran offers to be his shadow, and do everything in his power to make sure that JJ gets well again. Sometimes, the more you hate who you've become, the more you hurt the people closest to you, and JJ and Kieran will have to decide if they can move forward, when going back isn't an option.
