About this series
“I don't want him breaking your heart again.”
Down on his luck and deep in the closet, tattoo artist Brody Allen is afraid of who he's become. He doesn't know how things got so bad so fast. Dating his best friend, Luke, was the worst decision he ever made. Brody couldn't bring himself to tell the truth about their relationship, and Luke walked out of his life. Since then, Brody's drowned his sorrows in drink and anger, and refused to open himself to love again.
Why was Luke letting himself get involved again?
Fitness instructor Luke Reid moved back home to help his parents out, and get away from the hustle of Philadelphia. Portland, Maine, seems like the perfect getaway. He's ready to relax and live the quiet life of lobster cakes and lighthouses. He doesn't expect the man who shattered his heart and forced him back into the closet to still be there after all these years.
There was a fragile connection.
When Brody and Luke cross paths, the passion between them is reignited. Can Brody find the courage to face his fears and stand out and proud at Luke's side? And can Luke forgive Brody for his wrongdoings? Will they be able to fall into each other's arms once more or will they have their dreams and hearts crushed all over again?
