Running away is only the first step. Moving on is the hardest.
When Archer Navarro escapes his emotionally abusive boyfriend in the middle of the night, he hopes to step into a better life. A turn of bad luck ends Archer's flights as soon as it starts, but the kindness of strangers brings him to an LGBT shelter.
And it brings him to Brooklyn. He's the moody, drop-dead gorgeous tenant in the apartment next door, and he soon becomes the source of Archer's hope.
Their chemistry is instant. It's hot enough to melt the snow that's about to bury them. Brooklyn makes Archer believe there still might be some love in him left to give. If only the past wasn't getting in the way. If only Archer could let those around him help.
The road of trials tests these men's will to hold onto one another. Tensions with his estranged family and a lifetime of scars threaten to take Archer back to where it all started. Back to the house where he was a little more than a prisoner.
And when the future of both their lives depends on it, Archer and Brooklyn need to answer it once and for all: can broken hearts ever beat the same again? And can love ever be enough?
Contains mature themes.
