Blurb:
Car restorer Dean Milford knows how to make damaged things
beautiful again. Only, after a bad breakup, he loses sight of who he is,
playing the field and distracting himself with any man he comes across. But now
there’s only one guy who really matters to him. And maybe with his latest
restoration job—a vintage Cobra—he’ll get the chance to let him know.
Losing his sight wasn’t the worst thing to happen to Lee
Studer—losing his independence was. It’s taken a while, but he’s finally found
his place in the world—in a garage. Funny enough, his acute hearing allows him
to pinpoint engine problems just by listening. And even better, he’s going to
have a chance to help his long-time crush, Dean, rebuild his fantasy car.
As the restoration comes together, so do Lee and Dean,
building a friendship that quickly turns into so much more. But before they can
think about a future together, they have to deal with the past. Only that turns
out to be more dangerous than either one ever dreamed….

Excerpt 3
Lee and Scott were
done with the Cadillac. Scott was just moving the car out of the bay when a hand touched Lee’s shoulder. Lee
tensed until he smelled Dean. “You two do amazing work.”
“I hear the problems, and he sees them. I know my way around
most engines, and he guides me. I wouldn’t be able to do this job without him.”
Lee was well aware that Scott would be a great mechanic whether he was there or
not. He was grateful that Scott worked with him, and he hoped he was helping
Scott more than he was slowing him down.
“Trevor and I have come to an agreement. I’ve been restoring
cars for the last decade out of my home garage, but I can’t keep my head above
water. So he and I are going to partner together.”
“Down at the old Sears place? Trevor has been looking into
that lately, and he always seems to be able to find the right fit for his
ideas.”
“Yeah, exactly. And he said you and Scott might be
interested in working with me. I do a lot of the body work—that’s my
specialty—but I need experienced people to rebuild the engines and things like
that. I can do it, but I’m better at other parts of the process.”
“I can talk with Brent and Scott.” Lee was excited about the
possibilities. He’d heard one of the guys mention that Dean had just come
across a Cobra he intended to restore. Lee’s hands itched to spend some time
with that engine.
“Please do that. We’d all be working for Trevor, so things
wouldn’t really be that different. But you’d have the chance to work on classic
cars for a change, bringing them back from the dead.” Excitement filled Dean’s
voice, and it was catching.
Lee nodded as his nose filled with the richness of Dean’s
cologne , even over the garage’s exhaust fumes and grease. “Okay. I’ll think
about it,” Lee said, wishing he had more questions, if only so he could get
Dean to stay and talk with him a little while longer.
