Kenneth Carver had everything growing up except warmth and acceptance. When protecting his family's name became more than he could bear, he came out as gay, sold his company, and bought a horse ranch.
Andrew Wofford's last undercover assignment nearly cost him his sanity. Now he has another chance of catching the drug runner who killed one of his informants and then escaped, but gruesome flashbacks threaten his ability to function in the field.
Andy's latest investigation sends him to Ken's ranch where he poses as a ranch hand. Ken is a prime suspect, but Andy refuses to believe Ken is guilty, in part because Andy is falling for him. Ken knows Andy isn't who he seems, but he can't bring himself to push the man away. When Ken hears rumors that someone is using his land to move drugs out of the city, he worries that it's Andy.
Neither man can trust the other even though that's exactly what their hearts tell them to do.
