Blurb:
Andy Holcomb, heir apparent to the Holcomb Oil Empire, is hiding something
from his family. When his "good old
boy" grandfather uncovers his secret, he is immediately turned
away and disinherited. Needing to find a path in life, Andy leaves Texas and
joins the Marines.
Bryan Moore grew up in the projects of Chicago, the oldest
son of a mixed-race father and white mother. When tragedy strikes his
family, Bryan does his best to help his hard-working mom raise his three
siblings. After high school, Bryan joins the Marines so he can send money home
to continue helping his family.
After eight years of proudly serving their county, both men opt
out. They spend six months trying to find work as well as themselves. A chance
meeting at the VA brings them together, and a bond of friendship is immediately
formed. Even though Andy is gay and Bryan considers himself straight, their
friendship holds no judgement.
When a kind stranger offers them a chance to work on a cattle
farm, Andy and Bryan jump at the opportunity. Spending all of their time
living and working together tests their friendship on many levels. Andy knows
he's not Bryan's type, but he knows what he wants and that's his best friend.
Bryan is confused by his changing feelings for Andy but can't deny the
attraction.
