Justin Wong falls in love -- and lust -- with Blake Ingram at first sight. Blake is the epitome of tall, dark, and handsome. It helps that Blake is muscular, successful, and so incredibly sweet and charming, as well. They work for the same pharmaceutical company, and their respective offices are across the hallway from each other, so they are next door neighbors. Sort of. Unfortunately for Justin, Blake already has someone special in mind. At least that’s his understanding, based on his and Blake’s conversation.<br><br>Blake thinks Justin is the most gorgeous and the sexiest man he has ever laid eyes on in his entire life. Justin is also compassionate, empathetic, and kind. Blake is absolutely infatuated with Justin. Sadly, he quickly discovers Justin is already attracted to someone else. That conversation between Justin and his best friend, which Blake accidentally overheard, is proof enough for him that Justin is off limits. He’s unwilling to be with someone who can’t fully commit to him.<br><br>Can the two men resolve this little misunderstanding?

A Misunderstanding

Justin chortled. “Ah, I see. Cool. You don’t look like him at all. You’re beautiful. You must take after your mother.”


Blake cleared his throat loudly and narrowed his eyes at Justin. “Excuse me? In case you’ve forgotten, your lovely boyfriend is here.”


Justin rolled his eyes and kissed Blake on the cheek. “Stop being a jealous ass. You know my heart is yours. I’m simply giving Jacintha a well-deserved compliment.”


Jacintha let out a guffaw before glancing up at Blake. “I like him. He’s a keeper.”


Blake snorted. “That’s because he thinks you’re pretty.”


Jacintha preened. “Can’t deny the truth.”


Then the three of them burst out laughing. Once they had calmed down a little, Blake pulled his smartphone out from the right pocket of his dress pants.


“I’ve lost touch with everyone from the family. May I have your number?”
