Double Scoop - With A Kick #8. With A Kick, #5

A sudden disaster strikes everyone's favourite ice cream shop, With A Kick. Not only does it threaten the livelihood of its owner, Patrick, but also his loyal assistant Lee. The last thing in the world Patrick would ever want to do is hurt Lee, either physically or emotionally. Why would he? He's been falling in love with Lee since the day Lee invited himself into the shop's business and Patrick's life.
But familiar and deeply-held insecurities hold Patrick back - he's too gruff for Lee, too old, and his labour-of-love business is never going to make him rich. Lee is weary of trying to make Patrick see how much he admires and cares for him. To Lee, it's a very straightforward situation. Patrick is sexy, Patrick is smart, Patrick needs Lee's help - and Lee needs Patrick in his life as more than a boss.
All the characteristics Patrick finds inhibiting, Lee finds attractive. However, if Patrick's apparently never going to make a move on Lee, how long should Lee wait to make his own move? Maybe Patrick thinks Lee is too clingy, too immature. Maybe Lee should give up his romantic hopes completely. If, that is, he can bear to do it. The disaster at the shop brings them a whole new opportunity to work - and love - together to make a go of things.
They've both got to look at each other in a whole new way. With the help of all their With A Kick friends, this could be make or break for the reluctant couple!
