A love built to last.When Derek Jackson is hired to renovate the LGBT bookstore that's also Owen Hensley's home, opposites attract. Derek is a big burly blue-collar guy, about ten years older than slight, sweet, and bookish Owen. As they spend time together, it becomes clear that each handsome outside leads to a beautiful interior. Far from the shy twink he appears, Owen has a rock-solid foundation that helped him put himself through college and start his own business. Behind Derek's strong facade waits a tender heart that's been battered by a rough family past-something Owen understands.After Owen's runaway nephew lands on his doorstep, it throws a wrench in their plans. Derek can't ask Owen to choose, but he doesn't think he can take second place with his lover the way he always has with his family. Can they find a way to keep their romance standing?

About the Author

When Ariel Tachna was twelve years old, she discovered two things: the French language and romance novels. Those two loves have defined her ever since. By the time she finished high school, she'd written four novels, none of which anyone would want to read now, featuring a young woman who was-you guessed it-bilingual. That girl was everything Ariel wanted to be at age twelve and wasn't.

She now lives on the outskirts of Houston with her husband (who also speaks French), her kids (who understand French even when they're too lazy to speak it back), and their two dogs (who steadfastly refuse to answer any French commands). The cat pretends they're all beneath her, no matter what language they're speaking.
