Best-selling thriller author Reese Kelsey knows his career isn't conducive to romance. He doesn't work the normal nine-to-five, and sometimes his characters take hold and demand all his attention, causing him to neglect important appointments. and lovers. Rather than go through another heartbreak, Reese contents himself with his small circle of friends-fellow gay New York City artists-and his dedicated publicist, Chad.
Until Reese sees Owen Mercado lugging his cello toward the subway and impulsively offers him a ride. Owen has worked long and hard for a career in the symphony, and success comes with a demanding schedule-something Reese understands. Their desires and lifestyles are surprisingly compatible, and Reese and Owen certainly set the bedroom on fire. They're both carrying baggage, but they fit, and it's hard not to hope for a future that once seemed impossible.
But when Reese's work inevitably pulls him into its dark world and refuses to let go, Owen draws a hard line, and Reese discovers he can't rely on good intentions alone. He will have to control the obsession that drove his other lovers away or risk losing Owen as well.
