Will is a passionate guy who expresses himself with poetry. Don't think for a second though that this makes him wimpy or overly sensitive...the guy has had a ton of heartbreak for a young 20-something. He lost his parents, became the soul guardian of his little brother, gave up his dreams to go to a big college and ...AND finally meets the girl of his dreams and finds out he cant have her.........

“My heart pounds against my chest. Not because I'm nervous. Not even because I want her worse that I've ever wanted her before. It's pounding against my chest because I realize I've never been so sure about the rest of my life than I am in this moment. This girl is the rest of my life.”....Point of Retreat

Is Will gorgeous......oh yes!!! With his jet black cropped hair and pretty green eyes, Will is sexy, kind and smart....he's a t-shirt and jeans type of guy but for work he dresses the part...and looks the part too. He's still young but the weight of the world and the responsibility of being a parent makes him wise beyond his years. He's not the type of guy who you will find getting drunk or sleeping around, he's the type of guy you want to marry. And Will is from Michigan...Im using the Bookish Brunette's line here and shouting sheeeyahhhhh!!!!!!

Expectations, evaluations, internal evasions Fly out of me like puddles of blood from a wound A fetus from the womb of a corpse in a tomb Withered and strewn like red sheets on the bed Of an immaculate room. I can’t breathe, I can’t win, From this indelible position I’m in It controls the only piece of my unfortunate soul Left to fend for itself in this hollowed out hole That I dug from within, like a prisoner in An unlocked cell sitting in the deepest pits of hell Unencumbered he’s not in his sweltering spot He could open the door ‘cause he don’t need a damn key But then again, Why would he? Circumlocution is his revolution. Slammed (pp. 86-87). . Kindle Edition.

Will is also passionate about music, both he and Layken share the love for Indie music and the band The Avett Brothers, its not uncommon to hear Will singing or humming along to their songs, or playing a game of Would you Rather.......he's also the best take a gal on a first date guy ever, if you hear that noise its me swooning.

“Okay.” He clears his throat and pauses for a few seconds. “Okay, would you rather spend the rest of your life with no arms, or would you rather spend the rest of your life with arms you couldn't control?” What the hell? I can honestly say this date has definitely not started the way any of my previous dates have gone. It’s pleasantly unexpected though. “Well…” I hesitate. “I guess I would rather spend the rest of my life with arms I couldn't control?”
“What? Seriously? But you wouldn't be controlling them!” he says, flapping his arms around in the car. “They could be flailing around and you’d be constantly punching yourself in the face! Or worse, you might grab a knife and stab yourself!”
I laugh. “I didn't realize there were right and wrong answers.” “You suck at this,” he teases. “Your turn.” Slammed (pp. 39-40).Kindle Edition.

He studies my face for a few seconds as my heart races within my chest. I think he’s about to kiss me. I attempt to calm my breathing as I stare up at him. He steps in even closer and removes his hand from my chin and places it on the back of my neck, leaning my head in toward him. His lips press gently against my forehead, lingering a few seconds before he releases his hand and steps back...... I’m frozen, attempting to absorb the last fifteen seconds of my life. Where did that come from? Why did I just stand there and let him do that? Despite my objections I realize, almost pathetically, that I have just experienced the most passionate kiss I’ve ever received from a guy—and it was on the freaking forehead! Slammed (pp. 29-30). . Kindle Edition.
