author: Hudson, Max
description: Nolan Jackson, an Oscar-winning actor, must take some time away from his very successful acting career to recuperate from throat surgery. Happy to have the choice to go back to acting when he is ready, Nolan is taking the time to reevaluate his life and to make his house a home. Enter Titus “Ty’ Wylie, the landscape designer whom Nolan hires to remake his outdoor living spaces into something he can enjoy with his family and friends. The two men click instantly, despite Ty’s assumption that Nolan will be the kind of celebrity he most despises…a self-centered, arrogant bastard with no concern for anyone but himself. Instead, Ty finds Nolan to be as reserved and cautious as he is, though Nolan is an out and proud gay man. Despite his advanced degree in landscape architecture, Ty sees himself as “just a gardener,” and he tries to stay away from the flame that is Nolan, convinced that there must be some other more suitable man waiting in the wings for Nolan to step back into the limelight. Will Nolan convince Ty that there’s no one else for him, and that they are meant for each other?
