Tristan Beck sells his body for a living; Simon Yeung sold his soul for his family. Simon's job is to make things run smoothly for his uncle's business, and he does his job well. When he's assigned to convince Tristan to work for a family ally, Simon develops a strategy and then implements it. Nothing personal. But when "convincing" really means "forcing" it couldn't be more personal for Tristan and his friends. Tristan may be a prostitute, but as an independent he was in control-not of individual encounters maybe, but at least of his client list and what he was willing to do for them. As Simon gets to know Tristan better, he begins to question his own beliefs, and when Tristan's friends get involved, Simon realizes that a family you choose can mean a lot more than a family you're born into. Thanks to Simon's actions, Tristan has to choose between staying with his friends or losing his freedom--unless Simon takes desperate steps to free the man he's coming to love.

Micah's a junkie who hit rock bottom and is trying to claw his way back into the world. Jake is a landscaper trying to look after his business and his family, with no time for distractions. But when Jake's brother Austin runs into Micah at a Narcotics Anonymous meeting and impulsively offers him a landscaping job, Jake's life gets more complicated. Sure, there's a strong attraction, but an addict brother is more than enough; Jake just doesn't have room in his life for an addict boyfriend. And Micah isn't looking for love either. He's working the program, trying to reconcile with his friends, and following all the rules, including the one about no new relationships right out of rehab. Of course, life doesn't always go according to plan, especially when there are two junkies involved. Working together to try to help Austin, Jake and Micah find their attraction growing into a relationship. Micah seems to be the only one who sees Jake's struggles, and in return, Jake may be the only one to recognize Micah's strength. But Austin's addiction drags Micah back into the world he was fighting to leave behind. When everything goes wrong, can Jake trust Micah? And more importantly, can Micah trust himself?
