“This ranch saved my life. I’ll be damned if I let it fail…” Atticus Coleman never expected to come back to the ranch he grew up on. He left the family land thinking all would pass on to one of the ranch hands, leaving him free to chase wherever his heart would lead him. He tried to out run memories, a task which proved difficult through the years. In an unexpected twist, his heart led him straight to the place he didn’t want to be time and time again. Atticus makes it home just in time for his heart to break into pieces from the loss of his father. Left to pick up the remains of the crumbling estate, he’s shocked when a familiar face shows up to work on the ranch he now owns. Sean Hampton’s life had been planned from the moment he entered the world. He never questioned the path shown to him. Why would he when it was all he’s ever known? That is, until a random conversation with a grieving stranger changed everything. Sean decided to give up his prestige and accolades to find his true self. What Sean never could have planned for was to see Atticus Coleman - the stranger who rocked his world - again. Their night together a few years back still played through his mind everyday. Nothing had ever compared to the feel of calling the older man his Daddy. But when everyone around him seems to think Atticus is straight, Sean realizes the man he’s been obsessing over hasn’t come out. Can Sean accept their secret stolen moments as good enough? Or will waiting for Daddy be too much?
