Blake Stevens has lost everyone he’s ever loved—a boyfriend who betrayed him, family who abandoned him, and a best friend killed in action. No longer willing to hide who he is, Blake gives in to a life of loneliness, filling the void only as needed with temporary, no-strings-attached relationships, as he treks across the country looking for a place to eventually call home.

Asher Collins knows he needs someone in his life, but he’s tired of debilitating break-ups that leave him hurting for months. Nearly a year after his last boyfriend left him, Ash has convinced himself he’s content waiting for the right guy to fall into his life, even if he really isn’t.

Ash and Blake’s paths cross on an eastern Arizona ranch turned campground and within hours, Ash breaks through the first of Blake’s walls, giving him a glimpse of the damaged soul buried within.  When Ash tries to help, Blake’s fear of abandonment drives him to push Ash away and run as he’s always done.

Blake’s heart is closed off and broken. Ash’s heart was invested the moment they met. If Ash can find his way in, both might find exactly what they’ve been looking for.
