Oliver Bennett arrives at Sebastian Ashford's doorstep with nowhere else to go.
Fresh off a painful breakup, broke, and temporarily homeless, the last thing Oliver expects is to find refuge in the sprawling country estate of his brother's wealthy architect friend. Sebastian is older, guarded, and carrying wounds of his own after a difficult divorce.
Living together was never supposed to be complicated.
But late-night conversations, shared routines, stormy nights, and undeniable chemistry begin turning a temporary arrangement into something far more dangerous.
As feelings deepen, Sebastian struggles with the fear of losing someone he never expected to need, while Oliver wonders if he'll always be treated like a guest in the life he's come to love.
