I have been waiting for Bo's turn for a while now. He seemed like the bratty brother that hatted everything, but there was something inside him, an incredible pain and some hurtful memories that made him who he is now.

His life hasn't been easy, he has always been the one left behind, the only constant in his life has been Beth and he was even too scared to acknowledge his feelings for her, because that might make her run too, he couldn't risk it.

Mouse has always been around Bo, they were friends, but she has had feelings much deeper than that for a while, unfortunately, she is invisible to him and everyone else. She is sweet and beautiful, but no one seems to notice her until a certain quarterback comes back into town and he only has eyes for her.

Trev is starting over, he has a plan, work here for a year and then start his life, he is not planning on letting anything stand on his way. 

That is until he sets his eyes on Beth, nothing has ever made sense in his life before, but now that he sees her he understands why.
She is his new drug of choice and he can't get enough, the problem is how can he keep her for himself, when they have an expiration date. 

Trev wasn't planning on anything of this sort but now he finds himself in a relationship with a girl who is also in love with one of his old closest friends. He has a choice, either taking her and breaking Bo's heart or taking them both under his wing.

Everything is new to them, and they are risking it all for something that doesn't makes sense to anyone else. But sometimes the best things in life are unexpected and don't make sense, they just have to work for them.

Beth needs to let go of her holdups and embrace her sensuality and sexuality, she has been trapped in a hell of her own making which Trev just saved her from and now she wants it all.

Bo is scared, he doesn't understand how things work in their world, but will he be willing to take a leap of faith and embrace this new side of life?

A great dome can't be weak, or that's what Trev thinks, he believes he will not be what they need  because of his addiction, but maybe they will be able to save him from his demons too.


A group of broken people that might be exactly what each other need to survive.

We are all broken, we just need to find that person that fills all the missing parts and makes you whole again.

Bo walked up, his boots resounding against the pavement. His dark-blond hair was curling over his shirt collar. He was so beautiful, but in a different way than Trev. His hand came out to touch her shoulder. “What’s wrong?”
And he’d always been able to read her when he bothered to try. “I didn’t get the loan.”
She tensed a bit. Bo hadn’t wanted her to buy the house in the first place. He would probably tell her it was for the best and now she could sell the land to a developer and move someplace safer and way more boring.
“Oh, baby, I’m sorry.” Bo pulled her against his chest right there in the middle of Main Street. He wrapped his arms around her. “I know what that meant to you.”
She froze for a moment. He usually kept his affectionate nature private. It was sweet to be held by him, something she’d dreamed of a thousand times. He still smelled like the soap from the shower he’d insisted on taking before they left for town. His well-worn cotton shirt was soft against her cheek, but his chest was all muscle. After a moment, she let herself sink into him. The tears were back. She couldn’t hold them off when he was giving her a place to cry.
“I don’t know what to do. They said I don’t qualify. I have to have that money. I can’t fix up the house without it.”
His hand found her hair. “It’s going to be okay. We’ll find another bank. Hell, Aidan knows lots of people with money. You’ll see. It’s going to be okay. Now, come on, dry those tears and let’s go get some pie. I was talking to Jerry at the feed store, and he said Patty had pecan today.”
She loved pecan pie.
Relief washed over her as Bo began to lead her toward the diner. She’d been terrified that Bo would be angry that she was seeing Trev. She’d played it off as nothing, but she’d been scared he would turn away.
Instead, he opened the door for her and started to ask her about her plans. He seemed interested for the first time. Bo ordered for them both and then gave her his full attention. He was quieter than she’d ever seen him before. Well, except for that night when she’d had to find her way to Austin to get him. He’d been quieter then. He hadn’t talked for days. She didn’t like to think about that night.
“Hey,” Bo said, leaning over and putting a hand over hers. “It’s going to be okay, you know. We’ll find a way to get your house fixed up. Tell me something, is that boyfriend of yours going to be worth anything beyond hauling you into bathrooms in the middle of the day? Does he know anything about home repair?”
She flushed, but Bo had said the words with no accusation in his tone, just a sad smile on his face. She shook her head. “He told me to buy a book.”
Bo sighed. “We’re in trouble. Well, show me your plans. Let’s see how screwed we are.”
He gave her that smile that lit up her world and reminded her of all the reasons she’d fallen in love with him in the first place. He was a sunny presence. He always made her laugh, and deep down, he understood her.
Trev was her lover, but she would miss Bo. She would miss him so much.
She showed him her list, and by the time they were done, she felt better.
She would find a way. She would fix her house, and she would keep Trev and Bo in her life. She needed them.
