About this series
One family reunion. Two men. Three long summer days...
After enduring more losses than any one person should suffer, Cole put his heart in the deep freeze. The risk just isn’t worth it.
But Cole's tired of deflecting his family's questions and expectations about moving on and finding new love, so he accepts Tucker's offer to be a pretend boyfriend for the duration of his family's annual three-day gathering over Labor Day. They'll fake it for the weekend and then go their separate ways.
Tucker's never felt truly accepted. Not even by his own family. Cole's family, however, welcomes him with open arms and open hearts. Pretend or not, being a part of a family again is lovely, if a bit bittersweet. But his time in Ten Rigs was never supposed to be more than a stepping stone to bigger and better things.
Cole’s body burns and his heart thaws under Tucker's sure ministrations. Tucker finds the acceptance and the family he's always longed for.
Three days isn't nearly long enough.
Will Cole overcome his fear enough to ask Tucker on a real date?
Is the opportunity to be part of such an effusive and affectionate family enough for Tucker to stay in Ten Rigs for good?

When Scott's dog, Sylvester, gets injured, Scott goes into a tail spin and blames his feelings for Ben for Sylvester’s accident. Will powerful emotions derail Scott and Ben's budding romance?
- Absent Without Leave
3
Once bitten/twice shy, Aiden O'Leary, proprietor of O'Leary's Pub, swore to never be the other man. He put up with his ex's infidelities and accusations of the same for far longer than he should have, all in the name of 'for better, for worse' and what he thought was true love. Home on leave, Special Forces Weapons Sergeant Jake Hardison stops by the pub for a beer on his way to the local motel and is blown away by the changes time has wrought to his high school crush. Aiden is shocked to discover that Jake isn't quite as straight as Aiden had always thought. Sparks fly between Aiden and Jake when Aiden offers Jake his spare bed...room, but when Aiden learns of Jake's not-quite-divorced status, he sends him away for the four days it'll take for Jake's divorce to become final. Two days later, Jake goes absent without much of a by-your-leave to Aiden. Aiden's left feeling betrayed and foolish. Again. When Jake returns to Ten Rigs, will Aiden forgive and forget?
