To Love Again

Cooper May is unlike anyone Dominic "Nic" Vaughn has ever met in his life. The deaf artist is quiet but strong and devoted only to his sister-whose wedding is the reason he's aboard ship in the first place-and his dreams. Dominic is drawn to Coop almost from first meeting him aboard the luxury cruise liner on which he works as a butler. Although Nic has deliberately spent the last two years alone, after the love of his life was killed in the line of duty, Coop draws him in irresistibly with his artistic soul and his gorgeous reserve. But he's straight, as far as Nic can tell and only seems to want friendship. Nic can't resist him, but knows he could be setting himself up for heartbreak if he falls for Coop. Dominic is the sexiest man Cooper May has ever met. But it takes him months of growing friendship to realize that, to recognize that the bond between them has grown into something deeper and more intimate. Still, even having discovered that he's in love with Nic, he doesn't think he stands a chance with him. He's deaf, for starters...what man in his right mind would want to saddle himself with someone who can't communicate without props? And Nic's job takes him away a lot. Better to stay focused on his goal of opening his own art gallery and leave impossible dreams in the dust where they will end up, anyway. But what if Coop is wrong? And what if Nic can find true love again?Please Note: This book contains adult language and steamy adult activities, it is intended for 18+ Adults Only. Novel, approximately 78,000 words in length.
