After a one-night stand goes disastrously wrong, city boy Nick, print-shop manager and ex-bantam-weight boxer, struggles to come back to a full life. His friends don't understand how devastated he is, his family disowned him long ago, and his coworkers have a "don't ask" truce with him.
Nick drops out of his old friends' circles, but, lonely and afraid of never trusting the world again, Nick forces himself to take day trips. On one he meets country boy Matt, garden center owner and laid back sexual top, who wants Nick in his life, if only Nick can ever trust enough to let him in ~ literally and figuratively.
