Mason Always have an exit strategy. That’s how I’ve lived my life for years, and so far things are going just fine. I know better than to get into any situation without knowing exactly when and how to get out. I don’t do commitments; not jobs, not social plans, and most definitely not relationships. I learned the hard way how bad the alternative can be. Jackson I’ve spent the last five years running from loneliness, and I’ve done a damn fine job. Now I’m ready to put down roots and make a home, somewhere other than Hollywood. I think I’ve found the right place, and I thought I'd found the right person. But I’m not sure I’m ready to burn all my bridges, and I’m afraid that might be the only way I can prove how important he is to me. From The Ground Up is a steamy M/M romance featuring hurt/comfort and sexual awakening themes. You'll also find an A-list movie star, a sweet contractor, beautiful homes, loveable family members and of course, a happy ending. Book One of the Hot Dam Homes series.
