Eleven years ago, Gary left town when he was outed, and broke Abe's eighteen-year-old heart. Now he's back, crashing into Abe's truck during a blizzard, as arrogant and stubborn as before-and just as irresistible. Time has changed both of them in ways they never imagined, but the heat that flares between them is enough to thaw any ice. As Abe discovers just what Gary did to survive in the city, and Gary realizes the boy he only ever kissed has grown into a man with needs that match his own, they start to fall in love all over again. But with Gary determined to carry out one final order from the rich older man he's been living with-and obeying-for years, a dead man's plans might split the two of them apart, this time for keeps.
