What it is

Every mile takes us further from who we used to be.

Logan

I've always lived a structured life. Every box was checked, every decision planned, right down to the color-coded polos in my closet. Neat, orderly, by the book—just like I was raised. It's what made Salem and me so good together.

But it didn't stop her from hating me. It didn't stop the news about my adoption from shattering everything I thought I knew. And it sure as hell didn't prepare me for the questions rising from the truth: about who I am, what I want, and who I've been pretending to be.

I don't even recognize the man in the mirror anymore. But maybe I never really knew him at all.

Salem

I see the world in snapshots. Shadows and light, moments I can control or manipulate with my camera—unlike everything else.

My mother always said I was heartless, yet the one person I let myself love left me behind in Vegas with a ring on my finger and no goodbye. I'd rather be alone than use a man as a crutch like she did. I thought staying away would save us both the heartache. He's no longer the guy I knew, and I'm no longer naive.

The universe has a way of crashing all my plans, and sometimes, the only path out of the wreckage... is through it.

Exposing Colorado is a full-length, MF, enemies-to-lovers romance for mature listeners. Both characters are consenting adults. This story features a reluctantly married FMC, second chances, a queer awakening, and a non-monogamous HEA. A complete list of content warnings can be found on the author's website.

This is book three in the State of Us series and must be listened to after Crossing Arizona.
