Reclaiming Alex - Andrea Stanet

When I can't speak my own name, yours is carved into my heart

And I'll remember

I'll know I'm home

~Tevon Baxter

New York City, 1980

A passionate melody covers a base of steady breakbeats to guide two lovers out of their darkest moment.

Alex White, raised in the Church and a DJ on the rise, risks it all for love. And loses it all. Including Tev, the man who can "lay him bare with a glance and a crooked grin." Alex sinks into anxiety and depression he's not sure he wants to survive.

Tevon Baxter, a talented rapper, singer and songwriter, can bear any consequences of his mysterious past. Anything except having the one person who matters most snatched away-the love of his life, Alex.

Against the backdrop of the New York City skyline and the rise of Hip Hop, Benny the King, a crime boss with his heel on the necks of the Unbeatable Five Crew, separates Alex and Tev as a punishment for daring to cross him. They sneak to reunite, only to face their worst tragedy yet.

In this sweet, M/M historical romance, the question remains: is their love strong enough for Tev to reclaim his man and for Alex to reclaim his mind?
