When Micah Robertson inherits a crumbling farmhouse in the tiny town of Bellmere, Missouri, he plans to stay just long enough to sell it and leave. The house is falling apart, the town feels stuck in another century, and his life back in Chicago has already collapsed badly enough without adding rural isolation to the disaster. Then his Jeep breaks down in the middle of a thunderstorm. Luke Greenly has spent years keeping his world small, quiet, and manageable.
Running his late father's auto shop is easier than wanting things he might lose. Easier than being seen too clearly. But the sharp-tongued city boy stranded in Bellmere starts slipping past every defense Luke has carefully built. What begins as temporary quickly becomes something far more dangerous. Late-night storms. Candlelit kitchens. Slow dances around old wounds neither of them knows how to name.
And beneath it all, a farmhouse with good bones waiting to be loved again. As summer settles over Bellmere, Micah and Luke must decide whether home is a place you inherit. or a person you choose. Good Bones is a slow-burn LGBTQ+ small-town romance filled with emotional tension, quiet longing, found family, healing, humor, and deeply earned love. Perfect for readers who love atmospheric MM romance, protective small-town heroes, emotionally vulnerable relationships, and stories where home becomes its own kind of love story.
