He was always off limits. Until one night changed everything.
Blue Collins has loved exactly one man his entire life.
Haggar Jones. His dad's best friend. The owner of Pinkerton Falls Hardware. The man who fixes broken fences, coaches Little League when they're short a volunteer, and somehow ends up serving on every committee in town despite insisting he doesn't want any of them.
Blue Collins has loved exactly one man his entire life.
Haggar Jones. His dad's best friend. The owner of Pinkerton Falls Hardware. The man who fixes broken fences, coaches Little League when they're short a volunteer, and somehow ends up serving on every committee in town despite insisting he doesn't want any of them.
Everyone believes Haggar would make the perfect mayor.
Blue just wants him to believe they belong together.
Haggar has spent years pretending Blue's crush is a harmless phase. Except Blue isn't a kid anymore.
He's twenty-five. Smart. Kind. Gorgeous. Everything Haggar has secretly wanted in a partner-if only he weren't twenty years younger... and his best friend's son.
One stolen night of weakness changes everything.
For a few unforgettable hours, Haggar stops fighting the impossible attraction that's haunted him for years.
By morning, guilt wins.
He pushes Blue away with enough force to shatter both their hearts, determined to protect his friendship, his reputation, and the man he refuses to admit he loves.
Blue finally gets the message.
He walks away.
And that's the exact moment Haggar realizes the truth.
This was never about temptation.
Never about forbidden desire.
Blue Collins is the love of his life.
He broke Blue's heart. Now he has to win it back.
