Pretty Boy

By K.C. Kassidy

Finn

It's true what they say. Possessing a pretty face has its perks, especially one I've relied on since I began modeling at seventeen. It's paid for my college education and sent me around the world – all without taking a single dime from dad.

But it never got me what I truly wanted: his approval.

That's the reason I'm in Stoney Brook, Maine. 

To make a difference and prove to my dad I've changed.

What I don't expect in this lobster fishing town is to catch feelings for a certain lobsterman. But Mason Proctor reeled me in, hook, line, and sinker.

 

Mason

I'm a homebody whose twenties are passing me by.

Something I hadn't realized until I met Finn Caldwell, the pretty boy who breezed into town and hooked me with his smile. I want to be more like him; daring and fun.

The problem is my dad's lobster business keeps me anchored down in a job, a town, and a future I don't want.

I've played the role of good and loyal son long enough. I need to break free and live life on my terms. But I don't have it in me to cut ties and tell my parents the truth.

Finn and I may be different, but we both have something to prove. He needs to prove his worthiness to his father. 

I only need to prove my bravery to one man. 

Myself.
