Brushstrokes

Julian Chambers needs a huge commission to survive—like right this minute. He's played the starving artist for long enough, and he's tired of tending bar at a trashy go-go joint to make ends meet. His last boyfriend manipulated him until he almost lost himself, now he just wants to stand on his own.

People only want to be around Enrique Fitzgerald because of his money. Trust doesn't come easily, and neither does dating…especially since he's opened his mind to the possibility that his interest in men isn't just a passing phase.Enrique thinks he's meeting with a middle-aged female artist, and Julian thinks he has a private showing with the patriarch of the Fitzgerald family. It's fireworks from the first handshake but neither one knows how to make the first move.

They both hold back, keeping secrets from each other. The truth is bound to come out. When it does, will their connection be enough to keep them together, or will the strain be too much?
