Dominic Fournier knows how to carry weight. He's done it all his life—on the farm, in the gym, in the spotlight. But nothing has ever felt heavier than the things he's never said. Especially now, with his marriage crumbling, his career on edge, and a soft-spoken fan named Ryan asking questions he's not ready to answer.

What begins as an autograph becomes something deeper: an unexpected spark, a fleeting moment of warmth in a life built on pressure. As competition looms and emotions rise, Dominic must decide what kind of strength truly matters—the kind that lifts stones... or the kind that dares to be held.

Carry Me Gently is a tender, slow-burn queer romance about power, vulnerability, and what happens when the strongest man in the room finally lets go.
