Finally Home - Josiah

Josiah Nelson left the family home where his father's bullying and his own fears made life a penance, swearing never to return. Now he has a funeral to arrange, another joyless Christmas holiday to survive, and a ranch to sell, before he can finally wipe the last dust of his childhood off his shoes and settle into his lonely big city life.  

When he arrives in his hometown, Wyatt Aames is still there, still out and proud and everything Josiah secretly wanted when they were growing up. He can't help feeling a tiny, fragile hope that this time, things might turn out differently. Especially when Wyatt seems set on teaching him that home isn't the house you live in. It's the place where your heart belongs.
