Overview

"The chemistry between us is undeniable. The only thing standing between me and what I want is...me" ______________________________________________________________________ PETE - “I’ve never dated. I’ve pursued and conquered, I’ve flirted and entrapped…but I haven’t gone on dates. Gahhh…..the whole process sucks. Why is this so hard?” ______________________________________________________________________ I’ve failed out of my college classes, I’m about to be homeless, and everyday I walk a fine line between between being fairly functional and completely loosing my shit. When a sexy construction worker comes into my life, he stands out like something shiny and clean next to the dumpster fire that is my existence. He’s kind and gentle and treats me so well it makes me want to roll myself up like a burrito in my comforter and hide from all the feels I get when we’re together. Nick is hot as hell and the chemistry between us is undeniable, but I’m not sure if even his precocious 8 year old niece and a family of ferrets will be able to get me to admit that Nick is exactly what I need. ______________________________________________________________________ NICK - “I can’t find the right words to tell him that I’ve never had someone in my bed that was so tuned into reading me. I don’t know how my body communicated…so clearly to him, but boy did he get the message…Mind. Blown.” ______________________________________________________________________ My life is going pretty well, I have a successful construction company, a beautiful house, and a close-knit extended family. I’ll admit I was sort of looking for that special someone, but I certainly didn’t expect the perfect man to literally fall into my arms. Pete is gorgeous, single, and not put off by my….sizable problem. But when he’s not throwing himself at me, he’s running away. I just want to take care of him, feed him a decent meal, and keep him warm at night. Why won’t he let me? ______________________________________________________________________ The Golden Boy is an MM erotic romance with a little bit of an age gap and a lot of heat. There is mention of a non-con event in Pete's back story with reference to specific but non-graphic memories of the event. He also has a history of suicidal ideation and a discussion of this comes up several times. Pete is bisexual and he engages in both MM(often!) and MF(once) pairings.
