Frostbitten — R.W. Clinger

Almost thirty, amateur boxer Daron Tulsa has a little mess on his hands. He just so happens to be falling for his best friend, Colm Frost, a sports-themed freelance writer for e-magazines. Life for Daron feels cataclysmically frostbitten because Colm is straight and has a stunning Hollywood actress girlfriend. For Daron, these major blocks leave Colm untouchable, both emotionally and physically.

As the Pittsburgh winter becomes a tempest of snow, ice, and cold, so does Daron's heart. He realizes Colm will never be a part of his world and pulls away from the man. But when Colm's girlfriend travels for her career, leaving him behind, two personal secrets unexpectedly unfold, which may eventually melt Daron's heart.
