The night before Noah Hill left his hometown of Mountain View, he had a drunken s****l tryst with his best friend, Lucas Wesson. Deeply in the closet, Noah is horrified at his behavior, and terrified of what Lucas would think of him. He left the next morning without saying goodbye, and effectively cut off all ties. He returns five years later to help his father, and runs into his old best friend almost as soon as he reaches town. And nothing has changed. He still loves Lucas, and he still can't stand to meet the other man's eyes.
Lucas has been through a lot in the past five years without his best friend's support. A marriage. A divorce. A child. Running his own business. He also remembers his one night with Noah with perfect clarity. For five years, he only wanted Noah to come home. But now that Noah is back, things have changed too much to ever be the same between them ...
Chapter 1Noah knew he hadn’t been gone long enough to see any real changes, but he was still surprised when he drove into town and everything was exactly the same. The Welcome to Mountain View sign was slightly more faded, and the light board advertising that night’s football game seemed to be half burnt-out, but those were the only things he noticed right away. The streets were mostly empty, the sidewalks covered in a light dusting of snow. The gray afternoon light reflected off the storefronts and into his eyes, forcing him to slow down. He knew that if he cruised over to the high school, the small lot would be full of battered pick-ups, the football team would be practicing on the muddy, slushy field, and the drive-in next door would be packed with kids buying shakes and chicken basket
