At the first meeting, he’s instantly attracted to Nate and struggles not to fall so far, so fast. Nate Sherman is only attending a support group to get his family off his back. True, he hasn’t slept through the night in over three years, but he has reasons. Discovering your father — the man you love and idolize — is a liar will do that. No wonder Nate has trust issues.

When Ezra Green sits next to Monroe Friedman in their high school English class, friendship blooms into first love, and even Ezra moving to California won’t keep them apart. After months of unanswered letters, Roe makes one final attempt to contact Ezra with disastrous results. Now, more than 20 years later, Ezra has come home. He doesn’t know why Roe stopped writing, but he’s determined to find out. Is first love only a dream and a promise merely words, or are Ezra and Roe meant to last a lifetime?

Gentle at first, can become swiftly and irrevocably addictive to the heart. A recipe for romance: One snobby food critic who doesn’t believe in love. One down-to-earth food blogger who does. Add a touch of suspicious brother.
