Kale Matthews Terrance is a quiet man, twenty one years of age, just looking to get by in life and hopefully settle down somewhere permanently. Though, he knows life isn't as simple as saying it. With a heart wrenching past that threatens his very soul, a mysterious person to take care of, and working himself near enough to the grave just to put some meager food on the table, is it possible to find a good life in a shattered one?
Jackson Valentine is a bulk of a man, rich and having everything he wants and needs in life, except that one thing to fill the void in his existence. He owns several private clubs over the globe for those with a dark flair in the arts of sex and leather, of which he is a master, in his prime. Currently in England, in a small city he cannot recall, a certain someone catches his eye, a new man who draws his attention like a moth to a flame. The dark look in the man's eyes and his mysterious demeanor keep him hooked, even as Kale avoids him as best he can.
What Master Valentine wants, he gets.
So the real question is, can they come together without Kale's daunting past crashing down around them?
