Down on the Farm — Silvia Violet

When Beck loses his job, he moves into the house his grandmother left him. His neighbor Cal shows up, demanding to buy Beck's land. Cal is as infuriatingly sexy as he was ten years ago when he and his jock friends spent their summers taunting Beck.

Beck wants to hate Cal like he did back then, but Cal isn't who Beck thought he was. He's hardworking, passionate about his family's farm, and -- far more shocking -- he's gay.

Cal and Beck come together in an explosion of heat that turns to something more, but Beck has no intention of moving to Ames Bridge permanently, and while Cal is technically out, he refuses to date openly. A real relationship seems doomed from the beginning, but love can be a powerful motivator for anyone willing to take a chance.
