When a stalker sets his sights on Braden, the young pastry chef’s world is turned upside down.

Caught up in a maelstrom of threats, break-ins, and vandalism, the two draw closer together. Braden eventually realizes that he can trust Cade with his life, but he finds himself wondering… can he trust him with his heart?
