The books that have been
collecting dust for so long they have become stained from it
"Finding love can be a bumpy ride. "
His job: downsized out of existence. His marriage: on the rocks. It
doesn't take a lot of arm twisting for Tim Knight to agree to get out of London
and take over his injured brother's mountain bike shop for a while. A few weeks
in Southampton is a welcome break from the wreck his life has become, even
though he feels like a fish out of water in this brave new world of outdoor
sports and unfamiliar technical jargon.
The young man who falls-literally-through the door of the shop brings
everything into sharp, unexpected focus. Tim barely accepts he's even
"in" the closet until his attraction to Matt Berridge pulls him close
enough to touch the doorknob.
There's only one problem with the loveable klutz: his bullying
boyfriend. Tim is convinced Steve is the cause of the bruises that Matt blows
off as part of his risky sport. But rising to the defense of the man he's
beginning to love means coming to terms with who he is-in public-in a battle
not even his black belt prepared him to fight. Until now.
Warning: Contains an out-and-proud klutz, a closeted, karate-loving
accountant-and a cat who thinks it's all about him. Watch for a cameo
appearance from the "Pricks and Pragmatism" lovers. May inspire
yearnings for fresh air, exercise, and a fit, tanned bike mechanic of your very
own.
