Kevin Scott takes life one day at a time. He learned the hard way not to plan too far ahead. He didn't plan to return to Centerville, but here he is, back home and to his surprise, working at a dream job. Life might work out for him this time. The last thing he's looking for is a relationship, at least, until Aaron Abbott stepped into his path. Kevin has concerns about dating a younger man, but his desire for Aaron wins out over his caution. The last thing he wants to do is break his young man's heart. What he never considered was if Aaron would break his.

Aaron's a year out of college and still figuring out life and what he wants from it. When he meets Kevin, what he wants becomes focused. The only problem he can see is that Kevin is no longer a boy, but a man with a lot of experience, the kind of which Aaron hasn't yet had. An unexpected event separates them, but Fate isn't finished. When a second chance is given to them, all that remains is to see if love survived.
