All Thierry Thomas ever wanted was the moment he found his Boom. Too bad the person
meant for him is out of his league and, most of all, straight. After a freak accident on the ice
forces Thierry into medical retirement, he goes home to Murfreesboro to recover and begin the
next chapter of his life—Defensive Coach for the Murfreesboro Mountaineers.
Pope Ellis never enjoyed staying in one place very long. After high school, he took off
for parts unknown. His life in Murfreesboro left him claustrophobic, more so after his mother’s
death. He never expected to return, let alone run into the one person who flipped his life upside
down—Thierry Thomas.
At fourteen, they shared a kiss.
At thirty-five, they confronted their feelings by sharing a kiss in a heated moment. Is it
love? Hate? Curiosity? None of that matters after a medical emergency had Pope rushing to
Thierry’s side. Can Thierry and Pope push aside their trepidations and explore their budding
feelings? Or will Thierry’s Boom remain unrequited?
