Antique dealer Christopher Gleason isn't looking for love. He isn't even looking for a one-night stand. But when a young man with an innocent smile offers to buy him a drink one night, he accepts. He's even tempted to take it further, until he learns the innocence isn't an act. Though he can't deny his attraction, or the fact that he likes the young man quite a bit, Christopher puts him off. He'd rather be friends than risk hurting him.<br><br>Gage Kimball fled Salt Lake City for Los Angeles with his guitars, what little money he had, and no friends. Raised in a devout Mormon family within a tightly knit community, he's never had the chance to be himself or explore his sexuality. Until now. Christopher supplies the emotional support Gage needs, but Gage wants more than friendship. Even at the risk of everything he has left.

“Any thoughts on where you want to go for dinner?” he asked.


“I’m pretty beat. I was thinking room service and a movie on HBO or something.”

This time, Christopher showered. He countered how ridiculous he felt about it—this was not a date, and boy, was he glad Rev wasn’t around to laugh at his ass now—by pulling on the sweats he slept in and leaving his hair damp. Completely casual. He didn’t even bother with shoes as he stepped across the hall and knocked on the door.


Gage didn’t answer immediately, and when the door finally opened, he wasn’t smiling. “Hey, come on in. I haven’t had the chance to call down and order anything yet.”
