During a golf tournament in Virginia, American golfer Reggie Weston meets Russell Lee, the British former world champion in the sport. The two men hit it off when Russell takes Reggie under his wing, teaching him the tricks of the game. As their friendship deepens, Reggie finds himself falling in love with the Englishman, though he knows Russell doesn’t feel the same. He’s painfully aware of the fact that Russell isn’t gay. But there’s more to Russell than meets the eye. He’s a troubled soul, plagued by monsters in his head telling him who he should be. He’s spent most of his life hiding his sexuality from the world so he won’t disappoint his homophobic mother. Is seven days enough time for Russell to break through the years of hurt and accept the new direction fate has in store for him and Reggie?

Seven Days

“A thousand times. But I didn’t have the money,” he admitted, shrugging.


“Well, now I think you do,” the Englishman teased, licking his lips.


God, that tongue…how much Reggie wanted to taste it again.


Reggie blushed, looking away. More because of his tongue and not his question. “One million one hundred thousand,” he admitted.


“So if you could use it to redecorate this house, where would you begin?” Russell asked, approaching him.


Was he a mind reader? Jesus, he was so near, Reggie could smell his soapy scent.


“Mmm, I’d start with the garden,” he answered, nodding out the window. “It’s a little bare.”
