    Summary

    Lauchlan led a simple life, a comfortable one, and all things considered he was quite lucky. He had steady work, a roof over his head, food on his plate, a family who loved him, if from a distance, and good company to keep himself in.

    He had his good days and his bad days, of course, everyone did, and if one outnumbered the other, well, such was life. He thought he was satisfied with his lot, but, all it took was one stag night, and a few too many drinks addling his brain for it all to come crashing down around his ears.

    He didn’t know what drove him to it, didn’t know what he’d do, didn’t know what he’d done. All he knew was that he’d woken up in a strange bed, with a stranger man curled against his side, bruises like handprints on his hips, and the sinking realization that what he’d done could never be taken back, never undone.

    He never thought he was the sort of man who would do such a thing. Never thought himself capable of it. He never thought he’d come to like it. Never would have believed he’d come to love him.

    Turns out, there were a lot of things he’d never thought before.
