Lawn Boy. Neighbors & Roommates, #3

Nathan Cornell had gotten used to the quiet. Then Billy Blake showed up and refused to let him disappear inside it. At forty-one, Nathan has everything that should make a man happy: a beautiful house, a successful career, money, stability. What he doesn't have is anyone to share it with. After his divorce, Nathan's oversized suburban home has become less of a sanctuary and more of a reminder of everything that ended.
Then the new landscaper arrives. Billy Blake is twenty-two, loud, sun-soaked, shamelessly flirtatious, and somehow capable of making Nathan laugh when he's forgotten how. What begins with lingering looks through a kitchen window turns into invented yard projects, summer storms, late-night conversations, poolside dinners, and a connection neither man expected. Nathan knows the age difference matters.
Billy knows Nathan's money creates complications neither of them can ignore. And both men carry old wounds that make trusting someone enough to stay terrifying. But as one summer changes everything, Nathan begins to wonder whether Billy is really disrupting his carefully controlled life-or bringing it back to life. And Billy must decide whether love can be something freely given instead of another thing he has to earn.
