Contemporary M/M cop romance; police procedural

Crime scene investigator Yohan Maurel keeps a strict guard over his heart, never letting himself get too close to on-again, off-again boyfriend Salvatore Oakes, a private bodyguard and muscle-for-hire. Several months after their casual arrangement peters out, their paths cross professionally when Oakes turns up at one of Yohan's crime scenes, a fatal shooting in an Alpine ski resort.

As their romance rekindles, Yohan realises Oakes feels more strongly about him than he ever dared hope. There's just one problem: Oakes has always been a player, never hiding his string of casual partners and one-night stands. Committing to Yohan will be a significant change for him.

Yohan always knew he could get hurt in this relationship, but now he begins to suspect that Oakes is just as deeply invested. Will he lose Oakes for good if he can't make a leap of faith and trust Oakes with his heart?
