Description
📖 Paperback Edition — He left before morning. Sixteen years later, he’s back with a house that’s falling down — and the only man qualified to fix it.
Adrian Vale knows how to design a beautiful life. Living in one has been harder. Newly divorced, he comes home to Briarwood to fix up his grandmother’s falling-down Victorian and sell it. Simple.
Until the contractor walks in.
Owen Mercer was his best friend. His one night. The man he promised to talk to in the morning, sixteen years ago, right before he left town without a word. Now Owen runs the best restoration outfit in the county and has no interest in pretending it didn’t hurt. He’ll fix the house. That’s all.
But old rooms remember things. Long days turn into late nights. One kiss against a truck turns into a rule: if Adrian wants something, he has to ask for it. Out loud.
Adrian is very good at making plans. He’s about to find out that the man he loves doesn’t want a plan. He wants to be asked.
