Forever Nine

When Jesse Reid needs emergency surgery, he calls his neighbor to come pick him up instead of one of his many family members. As the youngest of nine, Jesse is used to feeling like a leftover, and he doesn't need their coddling.


Holden McRae is a big, beautiful man, everything Jesse wants. But Holden has made it clear he doesn't want Jesse as a submissive.


Under the influence of Holden's care, Jesse becomes bolder and makes Holden see what he's been missing. The two men's interests line up, and the attraction that has always been there is something they can finally act on. As Jesse heals, he shares parts of his life with Holden, and Holden helps him see he's so much more than #9. Their love might not be the most conventional, but maybe it's exactly what both men need.
