Duet: The Young Hearts Duet #2
Author: H.A. Robinson
Genre: YA M/M Romance
Release Date: October 23, 2018
At sixteen years old, Tom Williams has spent his entire life pretending to be someone he’s not.
The perfect son.
The perfect student.
The perfect friend.
After so long, it seems impossible he’ll find the courage to truly be himself, whoever that is.
And then he falls for his best friend—the one person in the world he knows he can never have.
Good looking, charismatic and popular, Luke Chang is everything Tom wants, and everything he wishes he could be.
There’s only one problem.
Luke is straight and thinks that Tom is, too.
As the wrong-shaped boxes get increasingly tighter and harder to force himself into, Tom has to make a choice between a lifetime of conforming or shedding the mould he’s struggling to fit and allowing himself the happiness he can’t quite believe he deserves.
My Review
*ARC received in return for an honest review
Sigh... I loved this book so much I didn’t want it to end. Such a powerful and beautifully moving story. H. A. Robinson has outdone herself with this sequel!!
I will very happily read anything this author publishes, without ever reading the blurb, as I know I will love it.

The only thing I’m going to tell you about this book is that I first fell in love with Tom when he appeared in The Pebble Jar (if you’ve not read it yet then I seriously urge you to do so before reading this!). I’ll let you read the blurb and discover what it’s about but I will tell you how Chasing The Sunrise made me feel.
When I heard Tom was getting his own story I couldn't wait to get my hands on it as I knew it would be a killer. And oh boy was I right! My emotions and my heart have taken such a battering that it’s going to take a while to recover. I now have a huge book hangover.
Tom's story had me hooked from the first page until the very last. I couldn't put it down, I had to keep reading to find out his, and Jake’s, fate even when my heart was hurting.
My heart ached so much for Tom. I felt all of his pain, loneliness and hurt so much so that when I’d stopped reading to take a breather, I looked up and was surprised to see that everything was right in my world. I became so lost in Tom’s emotions that I actually believed I was going through the same thing! THAT is truly the skill of a great writer. I adore this author’s words, her stories are so descriptive that they play out in front of you as if you’re watching a movie. The emotions are so real and raw they seep through every page weaving their way into your heart, squeezing tight and not letting go. She creates wonderful characters who behave like normal teenagers ,dealing with real teenage issues and you can't help falling in love with them.
I can't recommend Chasing The Sunrise highly enough and I waiting (im)patiently for Trix's story. Do yourself a favour and 1-click now, but make sure to stock up on plenty of tissues...you're gonna need them!

My rating...
H. A. Robinson is a jet-setting billionaire with a home on each continent, who spends her free time saving kittens from trees and babies from burning buildings. A graduate of Hogwarts and a frequent visitor to Narnia, she drinks coffee in Central Perk and tames dragons on Westeros.
In her dreams…
In reality, she’s a support worker living in a small town in Cheshire, who would almost always choose fantasy over reality. She’s been an obsessive reader from the moment she picked up her first Enid Blyton book, more years ago than she cares to admit, and enjoys nothing more than getting lost in new worlds and adventures from the minds of all the amazing authors out there.
She’s had the voices of characters in her head for as long as she can remember, and puts them down on paper in order to convince herself and the men in white coats that she isn’t crazy.
