There's more than one way to imprison a man.
Daniel Edmonds spent almost a decade in prison for a crime he didn't commit. After finally having his name cleared, he'd hoped things would get easier, but people still look at him like he's a murderer, and talk about him in hushed voices as he walks past. When he discovers that he really can't go home again, he has to decide what to do to survive.
Adapting to the outside world isn't easy, especially for a man alone.
Fear of temptation to fall back into his old ways scares Daniel into near-seclusion. When given the chance to help his brother Duke and brother-in-law, Frankie, Daniel agrees. His pride takes a hit when he has to let them buy his plane ticket to Montana, but Daniel's learning that family is more important than anything else.
That's what he tells himself, although maybe he's running, just a little, and not just trying to help Duke and Frankie. One thing is for certain—he doesn't mind spending a little time on the Mossy Glenn Ranch.
Hector Gallegos works hard and keeps his head down. He hasn't been interested in more than the occasional hook-up here and there. He's growing tired of that lifestyle, though, after seeing so many happy couples—and one treble—at the Mossy Glenn.
When Dan Edmonds shows up to visit his brother, Duke, Hector can't help but notice the man. Dan's scarred face doesn't dim the attraction that immediately flares between him and Hector.
Lust comes easy, but building something that will last is a challenge.
