When Gus wakes up in the hospital, he's surprised to find the stranger who saved his life. He's even more surprised when that man steps up to support him as he recovers from major surgery.

Seeing Gus sprawled across the bathroom floor, clearly in distress, set off a visceral reaction in Todd, resulting in a driving need to protect him. Finding out Gus has no one to nurse him back to health, Todd offers to help and brings him into his home.

Neither man is looking for love, and Gus has serious trust issues, but the more time they spend together, the harder they fall. Is it possible to fall in love with someone you've just met? Can Gus let down his guard long enough to open his heart?
