About the Book (just in case):

How do you rebuild a life shaped by loss?

Eight years after a devastating accident left his father permanently disabled, Theo Branson is still carrying the weight of a decision no teenager should have been asked to make. Now in graduate school for mental health counseling, he hopes to find a way forward and focus solely on his education and building his career.

After years of dedication to his caregiving responsibilities, he’s ready to live a life that’s his own. But when it comes to romance—something Theo has sworn off entirely—he is urged by his best friend to open his heart to the idea of finding love in his new era of independence. With this push, Theo meets Javier, a gentle music tutor with a quiet sadness, and Randall, an enigmatic Army veteran whose sudden arrival stirs something Theo can’t explain.

As he navigates the growing pull between the two men, Theo’s home life begins to unravel—fractured by secrets, addiction, and another tragedy that threatens to undo everything. Just when Theo thinks he’s lost his chance at love and healing, a revelation shifts the world beneath his feet—one that defies logic and opens the door to something both heartbreaking and miraculous.

An optimistic yet emotionally raw perspective of grief, Go Easy on Me is a spirited debut that explores resilience, connection, and the unseen ties that bind us once we let go and allow love to find us in the most unexpected forms.

If that sounds like something up your alley, please be sure to buy a ticket to the event if possible, pre-order Go Easy on Me, and then submit for the incentive! It’s that easy!

Until next time,

Bradley
