Kyle Shimoda is a jerk magnet, has been for as long as he can remember. At forty-seven, he doesn't see much chance for improving his luck in love. His friends who run Buchanan House, a gay retreat on the central Oregon coast, know he wants to find "someone nice" to settle down with, and they set him up with Officer Brandon Smith. Kyle has a turbulent history with law enforcement, but he can't deny his attraction to the buff cop.
Brandon has been a police officer in Lincoln City almost since the day he graduated from high school over thirty years ago. He's cultivated the facade of a serious, disciplined law enforcement officer, but beneath his overdeveloped chest beats the soft heart of a drama queen. A cancer scare shifts Bran's focus from finding a serious relationship to having as much sex as he can—putting his goals squarely at odds with Kyle's. If he can't find the courage to be honest about his feelings for Kyle, the happiness they've both been searching for could slip through their fingers.
