Second Act

Niall Hayes is returning to his hometown, trying not to dwell on the fact that it's where his husband died. For ten years, Niall has been trying to move past his grief, but the fact that Scot's wedding ring was never found has always made the whole ordeal feel unfinished. But now, Niall hopes the prospect of landing a hot new account at work will prove sufficiently distracting.

Especially when he meets the client.

Blake Edwards is gorgeous, driven...and playing hard to get. Or so Niall thinks. While Niall works to set up a website for Blake's new charity, the two men get closer despite Blake's attempts to keep Niall at arm's length. But Niall is determined to have the man, and Blake slowly caves to temptation.

Then Niall's entire world is pulled out from under him when he learns that Blake was actually there the night Scot died...
