Will both men's hearts remain forever frozen?

Although it shattered his heart, Douglas truly believed becoming a priest was the only way to save his and Connor's souls. But when a beloved friend from college arrives at his rectory, he can't turn his back on her. Now he's newly widowed and the father of a newborn.


Connor's heart has never healed from losing Douglas. Despite twenty-five years, Connor hopes the old promise he extracted—show up, and he'd never turn his back on him—might still come true. Meanwhile, he'll raise his daughter and steal what little personal time he can to help ease his lonely existence.


Yet fate is cruelly kind. Connor's boy has returned...except he became the one thing Connor cannot ever accept or forgive. Is Douglas strong enough to withstand Connor's righteous wrath, or will both men's hearts remain forever frozen?
