Synopsis

“An angsty, red-hot dance of doubt . . . this warm and funny story can stand on its own”—from the author of Getting It Right and Finding Their Way (Publishers Weekly). 
 
The last time Elliott fell in love, his fiancé cheated on him. Now fresh out of rehab, Elliott’s confidence lags behind his libido—not that that stops him from lusting after the sexy carpenter working on his kitchen—from a distance. He won’t risk his sobriety on another potential broken heart. 
 
As half of an experienced home renovation duo, Augustus expects this job will be easy. Until he sees the house’s tenant, a man he never thought he’d meet—his ex’s other man. Augustus knows he should say something about their secret, shared past, but he’s tongue-tied by their intense, unwanted attraction. 
 
Despite attempts to keep things professional, the two men give in to temptation and forge a genuine connection—and his developing feelings for Elliott leave Augustus in an impossible situation. If he stays, his secret will always hang over the relationship. But telling the truth might send Elliott spiraling to a new rock bottom and cost Augustus the only man he’s ever really loved. 
 
“The plot could easily have devolved into cliché, but instead Arthur’s talent adds depth, and even the secondary characters leap from the pages.” —Library Journal
