I’ve read quite a few M/M stories so far. But Emma’s story was by far the best I’ve ever read. This 6 star story made me feel so much.

Max came a long way from a rejection he suffered as a teenager. He has worked very hard to succumb his addiction. Silas suffers from PTSD. He’s rich, successful but can’t be himself. The 2 meet by chance and then end up in each other’s lives. Together they will work through anything.

First of all this story is really about 2 people from different backgrounds but love each other. I felt so much for them. These characters were so beautifully crafted to have me on a roller coaster of emotions. Eddie, Silas’s brother plays an important role to make this already amazing story so much more amazing.

This storyline was addicting and captivating. Beautifully written with heart and soul. Bottomline, if the reader has never read an M/M kind of story, please pick Someday, Someday

Standalone told in a dual POV with an HEA. I strongly recommend this story.

2.5 stars

This book was so hard to rate. I adored both of the MCs, and their slow-burn romance was fantastic. Through the first 70%, it was a 4-star read with a few irritating plot points that were annoying when they popped up, but easy to ignore the rest of the time. And then those storylines took over the last 30% of the book, and the romance I had been enjoying so much all but disappeared.

From the get-go, Silas' business concerns were unrealistic to the point of distraction. His "discovery" is something that should be common knowledge at this point, but even if you do the mental gymnastics to excuse this, you just can't ignore that Silas would be personally aware of the problem from his own experience -- since that experience is the setup FOR THE WHOLE BOOK.

I appreciate that the author was trying to shed light on a very serious crisis our country is facing, but I don't think it was executed well at all. This was the weakest part of the book to me, so it was very disappointing to spend so much time with it at the end.

Max wanting to re-join his horrible, horrible family was also very frustrating on several levels. I do understand that "forgiveness is for the sake of the forgiver," and that philosophy certainly rings true for Max's character. But they were very unpleasant to read about, and to quote another author: "In romance, the HEA/HFN tends to misrepresent family reconciliation as the only path to happiness."

And this book illustrates that perfectly. Because by the end, not only have we celebrated Max's reconciliation with his awful family, which we have to read about in detail over several infuriating, never-ending scenes, but we are led to believe that there's a happy ending coming for Silas and HIS father -- who the author has spent the entire book establishing as an absolute monster with zero redeeming qualities, both as a father and a human being in general.

So why, oh why is he our "happy ending"?? Authors, I assure you, sometimes the healthiest decision someone can make is to break free of their emotionally destructive family members. Which...I kinda thought you knew since prior to this final scene, Silas' big emotional victory is WHEN HE DOES THIS VERY THING!!!

I haven't had a book crash and burn like this in recent memory, and I really struggled to balance the 4-star review from the first two-thirds of the book with the rage-reading I was doing by the end. I know it's hard to stick the landing, but this just doubled down on all the bad stuff while at the same time giving us very little interaction between the two MCs, which was a problem all on its own. So bottom line: No, I would *not* recommend this book.

5 stars

Emma’s writing is beautiful! Every book gets better and I’m not sure how that’s even possible!

Someday, Someday has such depth and the characters we so likeable. It was a beautiful, but heart wrenching story. There were times it was difficult to read about Si & Max’s past. It just broke me to read about the struggles they both went through, mainly because it happens to many in real life. My heart goes out to anyone who has to go through anything remotely close to what they went through.

Without giving anything away, I just want to highly recommend this book. It is M/M and I’m quite picky when it comes to reading these types of books, they have to be well written and not cliche. Someday Someday was just perfection!

Oh my goodness, when you read an author for the first time and you know you'll hunt down her back list. That's this book, just so good. So emotional, so powerful and unforgettable.
Two men, both with mega baggage for being true to themselves. Love is love, or is it? One grew up on the streets, the other a billionaire, severely traumatised and living a lie. Both with fathers from a homophobic and close minded generation.
I had no idea that kind of therapy was happening in the western world, scary stuff.
The epilogue was brilliant, after all the tears I had a warm heart...ok I was still in tears but happy tears.
A fantastic love story, I highly recommend it.

This is my first full length Emma Scott story & what a way to pop my cherry. This book was just beautiful.

It was heartfelt and honest. It was raw and emotional. It made me cry. It made me rage and it absolutely made me fall in love with her storytelling.

Max and Silas are two broken men. Broken in very different ways but both so deserving of a HEA. I sighed a lot in this story. Both in happiness and sadness but I will say that even in the sad moments I still felt hopeful. Absolutely recommend.

“You can choose a different life. Choose me, Silas. I’ll love you for who you are, and we’ll give a shot at happy.”

Someday, Someday follows Max and Silas, in dual perspective. The plot revolves around their relationship, the difficulties and how they're overcome. However, the story is so much more than their romance. It deals with really tough topics like addiction, familial issues, extreme homophobia and ableism. It's clear that Emma Scott put a lot of research into these harsh topics, and as a result they are portrayed in a very real way.

Max and Silas's relationship is beautiful. They go through so much hardship, and the ups and downs of their relationship is so tangible, it makes it that much more satisfying when they work through their problems.

I picked up based on the great reviews it was getting and it is so deserving of them all. Someday, Someday is one of my favourite reads this year! And I can't wait to check out more of Emma Scott's work.

Someday isn't a day of the week.."




Emma Scott must be a beautiful soul. Her words are always feeling. Her stories intense in their empathy and emotion. Her characters are and could be your neighbor, boss, or that one you've always dreamed of from afar. They are real. You can feel the heat from their skin, the joy or sorrow emanating from their bones, the longing to be loved in your very marrow.

Someday, Someday is a subtle beauty. A dream, a wish upon a star...

I almost feel like an evil grinch when I sing in my head "someday never comes..." I want so badly to take all the people whose someday never comes and hold them. However, this book...is like a gift. It feels like an early Christmas present to me.

Someday, Someday is filled with hope. In a terrifying and abysmal place in his life, Silas is offered hope. Hope that is wrapped in barbed wire, frostbite, and electrical shocks. Hope that he will have to claw his way to and through to get but hope nonetheless.


“New thoughts and hopes were whirling through my mind, and all the colors of my life were changing.”


A quote from another book which plays an integral part of this story is also an amazing and wonderful point of view. It encompasses so much...freedom, a new outlook, love - all major necessities.


I know that as a straight woman I can't possibly understand the fear, loathing, and hurt. But as a PERSON I can completely empathize. I understand what it's like to be persecuted by your own family for who you love. I know what it's like to be removed from your household for dating an "undesirable". I know that love IS LOVE. You can't control it. You can't bend it toward your will. It simply is.


Emma Scott makes it FEEL right. Someday, Someday is a beautiful and sweet story with some serious "real world" problems. Its beauty in a cruel and ugly world. It's also one helluva love story.


Someday, Someday is classy in its romance. For those that aren't quite up to an erotic MM, you will be fine. This story is about love. Those that enjoy a roll in the sheets, don't worry Emma Scott didn't omit the sexual side of romance. It's a beautiful truth, Someday, Someday. I'm glad she shared it with us.

So, I want to be clear, that I respect what the author set out to do with this story. With the subject matter, the redemption, the healing.. even dragging something as relevant to our every day as the opioid crisis into the spotlight. But..

.. but. This story feels a lot like it's trying very hard for me to feel things. For me to be heartbroken, or angry, and to champion the MCs, to rage against the villains. All of which, like, valid. The material is there. I just didn't quite sink into any of it. Probably because so much of it is melodramatic, or manufactured, and also just vacillating between different extremes to the point that things felt a little (a lot) unbelievable and hard to hold onto.

I'll say it again. I appreciate some of the topics, I appreciate the representation, but this was just a little too OTT for me whilst also not being enough for me to feel much of anything. But hey, what do I know, this is beloved by almost everyone, so, hey. Grain of salty salted salt.

This was my first Scott, despite having bought up most of her books during one kindle sale or another, and I would like to give her other works a try. This is definitely not the worst 'romance author tries m/m' foray I've ever read. I think I've just read too many better ones to think much of this one. But a lot of potential was here so I definitely won't be deleting her off my kindle. I might even finally read those other books! Sounds like a good 2020 goal.

What an emotional ride! Silas and Max are two amazing men that are brought together by their history of addiction. Max then unknowingly becomes a caregiver in Silas’s family and they realize they have more in common, as they each come from shattered families. This is a story that touches on many issues that are present in today’s society and makes it heartbreakingly real. The journey to healing is heartfelt and realistic. The happily ever after was perfect.

In Someday, Someday Emma Scott delivers and emotional story with so much heart. This author has the distinction of being one of the few to ever make me cry over a book. This is a beautiful story about the long road to finding yourself and the hard fight to stay true to what you find.

Max and Silas are on a difficult journey towards acceptance, from both their families and themselves. Where they end up is beautiful and touching. I loved reading their story and experiencing their strength grow as they found each other. A poignant and inspiring read!

This is an important book for several reasons: one, it features a believable LGBTQ romance, but two, it tackles extremely difficult topics with grace. The author's note shows how well-researched this book was, and she did these issues justice.

Despite the fact that there are some very heavy issues in the book, Emma Scott doesn't leave the reader feeling hopeless. Her characters and the world she builds show that love and compassion for ourselves and others can help us overcome the worst in the world.

The characters were very interesting and fairly diverse, including a character with Asperger syndrome. I would highly recommend this book to anyone seeking a good M/M romance, but also people who aren't aware of the many issues LGBTQ youth face.

6* Perfect Love Stars

You know when you read an Emma Scott book you will be transported into a world of heartfelt emotions. Her writing is flawless and deep. The story of Silas and Max was so much more than two people finding love and living happily ever after. Their journey towards one another was marred with the baggage of their pasts and the heartache each of them had to endure to overcome their scars.

The secondary characters to this story were pivotal in the healing and moving forward for both Silas and Max. I absolutely loved Eddie, he was such a breath of fresh air.

I highly recommend this pull at you heart strings read, it was everything and more. It is my favourite read for 2019.

Many thanks to the Author Emma Scott and NetGalley for my copy to read and review.

This book… Wow. It was a thing of beauty. I knew Max was an amazing person from Forever Right Now. He had been to hell and back and it had made him all the wiser. What I didn’t expect was to be so floored by his convictions and his ability to help others in so many situations, and also to stand up for what he needed for himself. It’s been a while since I loved a character so much.

Max’s love interest Silas was unexpected part of the story for me. Yeah, I knew he would be dealing with his sexual orientation as it related to his family and their business. It was way more than that, though. He had some baggage that was just as rough as Max’s. It made so happy that he and Max were thrown together because who better to help Silas with his past than Max?

Someday, Someday was not just an epic romance. It was an epic read filled with topics relevant to today’s social and business culture. Emma Scott went big on everything in this one and it paid off. What a phenomenal story!

I received this book from Netgalley in exchange of an honest review.

Someday, Someday is a wonderful love story, narrated by the two main characters, Max Kaufman and Silas Marsh.
Max's life is complicated. Kicked out by his parents when his father discovered he was gay, Max struggled against addiction, living on the street, selling his body for drugs. Only a stranger's kindness saved him and since then Max spent the last seven years recovering, studing, becoming a nurse and protecting his heart. His life is changed when, struggling with his job at the ER, he's offered the opportunity of becoming one of the nurses of Richard Marsh, a billionaire, president of the famous pharmaceutical company, who suffers from multiple sclerosis. And there he meet again one of the member of the NA (Narcotics Anonymous), discovering his real identity, as the son of his employer. His relationship with Silas, first slightly awkward because Max knows about Silas' addiction and Silas is afraid Max could talk, slowly become more and more intense, until the fell in love with each other.

Max and Silas are two really complex characters. Max's suffering made him a strong person, he's true to himself, he won't compromise himself, he won't hide his true nature. While trying to reconnect to his family, his brother sister, mother and father, Max is loyal to himself, refusing to back down, to suffer, to let others hurt him again. While protecting his heart, he can't do anything when he meets Silas. They first become friends, battling their mutual attraction and then lovers, but they find themselves tangled in a big and complex net of lies and ugly truths.
Silas Marsh fought his whole life to be the perfect son his father wanted, repressing his feelings, his identity, his desires, his true nature. To inherit his family fortune he's forced to follow his father's wishes, his grip strong than ever. Silas carried with him a huge emotional hurt. His father, when he was seventeen, decided to send him to a sexual reprogramming program in Alaska and for months Silas was beaten, starved, tortured and electrocuted. He was abused, shamed and called unnatural because he was gay and the emotional damage and the PTSD never left him, forcing him to shut down feelings, desires and thoughts, becoming cold and distant. Meeting with Max, opening up to him, falling in love with him pushed Silas to consider if it was worth to live a lie, faking it with his fake fiancee, Faith, to be engaged and in love.
Silas was trapped for years in his father's clutches, groomed to be the perfect heir, forced to do what he says. His need to be free is blocked by his need to protect his older brother Eddie, who suffers from Asperger and is mistreated by his father, deemed useless and forced to stay at home. Their suffocating prison is shaken by Max's presence. Max connects right away with Eddie and bit by bit manages to shake some of the ice incasing Silas, until they both fell in love with each other.
But Silas has responsibilities, because he discovered the extensive damage their major drug, the OxyPro, did to many people and, before being real with himself, he needs to get his company back and make amends.

Max and Silas' love story if full of ups and downs, truths and heartbreaking and it's raw and real. I love how Max, after being through hell, is strong for Silas, waiting for him to be ready to come out, to defy his father and be free. He's being true to himself is admirable and really amazing. He's strong, full of joy and suffering and I love how he managed to tackle his family and triumph on his own awful past, finding who he really is and what he wants to do and who he wants to do it with.
It was really realistic how Silas was conflicted. Forced to live a lie by his father, shamed by Coach Braun and his time in Alaska, it's with great difficulty and help from Max and Eddie he managed to be free and stand up for himself. I adore how he decided to be there for himself, seeking help, talking with the people he loves, deciding to stand up for the people his company hurt. During the book he's divided by his growing love for Max, his need to protect his brother, take back his company and make amends for what greed did. He is admirable and strong.
I love Max and Silas, they are amazing and complex main characters and reading from their POVs was interesting, because the author wrote about their emotional turmoil, their sufferings and hopes.
Their love is strong and they would do anything for each other and for the people they love.

I really liked the side characters. Eddie is amazing, fun and I love how he's surrounded by people who loved and understand him, how Max and Silas managed to help him be better, to escape from his father's net. Darlene is funny and supportive, a true friend to Max, same as Daniel, who helps him a lot, when he decided to come back to try to reconnect with his family. Faith is Silas' perfect fake fiancee and I adore how she and Silas are friends, how she pushed Silas to be true to himself, to be with Max, seeing right away they love each other.
Richard Marsh and Lou Kaufman are the "villains" in this story, the first one causing Silas a lasting emotional abuse and the second one forcing his son to live homeless and cave in to drugs. Both Silas and Max used the same drugs, Silas for his PTSD and Max for his life on the street, that caused the financial turmoil in the book and that pushed them to the meeting where they see each other for the first time.

I love how the author wrote about interesting and heartbreaking topics. Reading about Silas' sexual reprogramming was awful, above all because it exists nowadays, like the cruel homophobia showed by Silas' father, convinced his son was defective and who decide to have him tortured and by Max's father, who kicked him out, forcing him to suffers and debase himself to survive. I love how this book showed people can be beaten down, went through horrible things and still get up, find themselves, find love and meaning in live. How people can change and make amends. How it's important to fight and be true to oneself.

Max and Silas' love story is sweet, cute and realistic. I love how they support each other, how Max was there when Silas need it, helping him to stand up, to face his true nature, to seek help for his past abuse, to be free from his cage. And how Silas was there for Max when he meets his family, trying to reconnect and heal their relationships after so many years of suffering.
Their love is so pure and I loved this book because it's raw, realistic, full of pain,hardships, forgivness, amends. Full of love and hope. Like life.

When I started this book, I was a bit doubtful about the big issues it tackles in the context of a romance. There's opioid addiction, autism, gay conversion therapy, and somehow Emma Scott wove it all into a beautiful, compassionate story that didn't gloss over the problems and respected the depth of all characters with their imperfections, weaknesses and big mistakes, but a connecting thread of underlying love. And at the center two characters that I fell absolutely in love with, Max and Silas, overcoming their struggles, finding their voice, their power and their happiness. This was my first book by Emma Scott, after being on my radar for a while, and now I have to go check the other books I've been missing out on.

I enjoyed this book and it dealt with some very heavy issues in a thoughtful and thought-provoking manner.

I am a huge fan of Emma Scott and Someday, Someday did not disappoint. This heartwarming novel was well written and I devoured it in one night. It was an emotional journey that will leave you in tears. This was Emma Scott’s first journey into LGBTQ and she did so seamlessly. Max Kaufman lived a difficult life from being kicked out of his home as a teen to struggling with addiction and being homeless. He has spent the last ten years rebuilding his life when he accepts a job as a caretaker for a wealth man, Edward Marsh. Silas Marsh is the son and heir of Edward who Max falls hopelessly in love with. Silas is put in a position between living the life his father has outlined for him or being true to himself. The chemistry was undeniable and both characters were so well written with many layers. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and can’t wait to read more from Emma Scott in the future.

Thank you to NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

To keep this review short: I bled tears while reading this story

Emma Scott literally ripped my heart out and then slowly put it back together. When I say that this book is dark, you should know to double the darkness !
There is so much pain and angst in this story it's unbelievable. Max and Silas both have two completely different stories, however the thing that connects them is pain.
Both of them were treated in horrendous ways by the ones that were supposed to love them the most.

We learn at the start of the book how Max always had a rough life , he was and addict, he had to sell his body for "rent". Just unbelievably dark things !
Silas was sent to horrible ghost town in Alaska for 6 months to “reprogram” him, but what they did was the most disgusting abuse.
Both underwent vile, very hard things in their lives and it hurt reading about them ! There were times I had to stop reading for a second, close my kindle to just let the tears flow and the sobs subdue.

I struggled with this book a lot, in all honesty. It's hard reading about emotionally traumatizing stories and even harder to focus on a love story where we only get moments with these two. Small moments, nothing more !

In the end the story shows how Max and Silas find each other as recovering drug addicts but mostly, how they find themselves through each other.
These character have opened my eyes to things I never really would’ve had the knowledge without them being expressed in these words.
I hurt for them, I bled raw tears with them and I felt unbelievable happiness when they reached their HEA.
You have to be emotionally prepared when reading this book ! But once you read it, you will understand why they say :" The pain passes, but the beauty remains"

OMG! I love Emma Scott. She is brilliant and fast becoming one of my favorite authors. And I believe this is her first MM romance and it was AMAZING!!! So much heart. The story was heartbreaking and beautiful. This story is about conquering hate with love.

This love story is about Max and Silas, both have heartbreaking pasts. Both pasts are the aftermath of negative reactions of parents finding out about their sons being gay and how it effects them.

Both pasts were harsh but Silas's back story hurt my heart. Conversion therapy should be banned and not be allowed. It is barbaric and cruel. I can't even imagine what it would be like during and after. I feel Emma did an amazing job portraying his pain.

Silas fought so many demons but then Max came into his life and knocked down all his walls.

"What if you can't let go? What if it's too late?"
"No such thing," I said. "Every minute you're alive is a second chance to start over. . . "

"Since when did you get so wise?"
"I'm not." He sipped his cocktail. "I just watch a lot of Wendy Williams."

It saddens me so much that so many people have negative responses on finding their loved ones are gay. To me love is love and it should be that simple.

~Because hate has to be taught. You're not born with it. ~

Gah! Watching Silas break his bonds was so beautiful.

"I'm so happy for you. And so happy for me now now that I don't have to go over there and murder someone, because that would have really complicated my plans for our future."

Loved who Silas was after he thawed. He was so full of love and it makes me so sad if it wasn't for Max what would have happened to him.

~Forgiveness isn't for the person you're forgiving. It's for yourself. To set the burden down and move on.~

I had already loved Max and Silas but Eddie just made my heart swell. Gah, Eddie was amazing. I loved his character. I loved his honesty and how he saw the world. I loved Silas's love for his brother and how Max immediately became friends with him and truly just saw Eddie and not the spectrum that he was on.

I'm having a hard time writing this review because it gave me all the feels and I think everyone needs to experience Max, Silas and Eddie. This is such a beautiful story and will be a book I will re-read and remember for the ages. Thank you Emma for writing such an amazing story. I can NOT wait for more from this author.

This book addresses several hot-button issues - conversion therapy, LGBTQ homelessness, and the opioid epidemic - and blends them into a seamless, often heart-breaking story of repression, loss, love, and forgiveness. The MCs are devastatingly real, as are their respective backgrounds and relationships. Never have I been so thrilled that two characters found their HEA.
