Can trust form for a man who's been hurt by those closest to him? Can trust be enough when doubts plague the cop who is starting to care for him?

Corey Shaw is a transplant to Arbor Heights, a high school dropout who had nowhere to go after losing everything. Determined to make a life for himself, even if he has to start at the bottom in squalor, it is enough to say it is his. Enough to let him wrap the little pride he has around him like armor to make it through the day-to-day challenges.
For Trevor Beckett, chasing a car burglar was the least likely way he expected to meet someone. Compassion, and Thanksgiving leftovers, had brought him back to check on Corey. It hadn't occurred to him that he was simply floating through life. Suddenly, a future with someone didn't seem so impossible. It only took blue eyes, and wondering what it would take to earn this man's trust.
