A love built to last. When Derek Jackson is hired to renovate the LGBT bookstore that's also Owen Hensley's home, opposites attract. Derek is a big burly blue-collar guy, about ten years older than slight, sweet, and bookish Owen. As they spend time together, it becomes clear that each handsome outside leads to a beautiful interior. Far from the shy twink he appears, Owen has a rock-solid foundation that helped him put himself through college and start his own business. Behind Derek's strong fa ade waits a tender heart that's been battered by a rough family past--something Owen understands. After Owen's runaway nephew lands on his doorstep, it throws a wrench in their plans. Derek can't ask Owen to choose, but he doesn't think he can take second place with his lover the way he always has with his family. Can they find a way to keep their romance standing?
