Calvin Maxwell likes older men, and Turner Marsh is definitely the type of man he’s very much into. Growing up with only his mother by his side, Calvin can’t help but be attracted toward men who are much older than him. His father abandoned him and his mother when he was only four years old, choosing to marry someone new, have kids with her, and refuse any contact with him whatsoever. It’s not strange he has abandonment issues now as an adult. Turner has been single for nearly six years now. He was been dumped by his ex-boyfriend of almost twenty years because the man apparently needed someone fresh, someone more exciting. In other words, anyone but him. The first time they meet, Turner is instantly attracted to Calvin and, fortunately, Calvin likes him, too. Then Turner gets the invitation to attend his ex-boyfriend’s wedding. He brings Calvin along, but doesn’t expect his ex-boyfriend to proposition his new boyfriend. Emotions run high, threatening their new relationship. Can it survive?

Never Left Behind

“If you marry me, I’ll provide you with anything your heart desires. I promise.”


Calvin seemed quite stunned now. “Is that your idea of a marriage proposal?”


“Nope. Just informing you that I’m serious about us staying together for the rest of our lives. I’m staking my claim on you now.”


Calvin blushed, and he glanced away slightly. “Better put a ring on my finger soon then.”


Turner’s heart felt as if it was going to burst out through his chest because he was so elated upon hearing Calvin’s words. “I will. What kind of ring do you like?”


Calvin turned to face Turner once again. “Surprise me.”


Turner nodded quickly. “I will. You can count on it.”


“Good,” Calvin said right before the car was stopped in front of the entrance to the private terminal, and the two of them got out from the car.


Turner reached for Calvin’s hand to prevent him from getting the luggage out of the trunk. “The porter will handle them. It’s one of the services included at the private terminal.”
