Ethan Shields is utterly broken, inside and out. Digging his way out of a divorce that won’t seem to quit with a blood-thirsty ex-wife who has already stripped him of a college degree and his lifelong pursuit of writing and producing blockbuster films, now she’s after the one thing left that Ethan has to live for… his daughter. Nobody wears that boyish, sexy, artsy look better than Ethan. With an IQ that hovers around genius and more creative talent than most college valedictorians ever dream of, he once coasted at the top of his undergraduate class. But that was then… Now, with a damaged heart and a PTSD-infused mind, he’s happy if he can get through the night without multiple panic attacks. He’s all but forgotten who he once was, and what he’s capable of becoming. For Ethan, there’s a new four-letter word in the English language… Love. Enter Garrett King, the prim and proper, and sinfully gorgeous psychiatrist hell bent on reminding Ethan of the man he used to be, and the man Garrett believes Ethan still is. There’s just one minor glitch… Garrett is a clinician who works for the probate court system, professionally bound by merciless regulations to conduct his job in a very particular manner. So when the courts task him with the responsibility of investigating allegations pertaining to Ethan himself, Garrett must put his personal biases, and his wanting hands, away. Preferably, forever. But Garrett has his own blind spots, and Ethan Shields is proving to be the biggest one yet. From the moment both men set eyes on each other, confusion sets in, worlds are flipped upside down, and shirts are torn off. Will Garrett be the one man capable of helping Ethan get his life back on track, or will he be the last driving force behind the stake wedged in Ethan’s heart? Will Ethan be the gust of fresh air that Garrett has been desperately longing for, or is the court-ordered client just a fleeting object of the psychiatrist’s forbidden physical cravings, capable of dismantling everything that Garrett has worked his whole life to achieve?
