Seeing Sophie neglected and exploited by their other brother, Callum has no choice but to take her in. He's barely in a position to support himself, much less his eight-year-old niece, but Callum is duty-bound to step in and care for Sophie just as Jon cared for him growing up. He needs a place for them to stay, and an old friend offers just that in his new brownstone house. Reid Ainsworth is happy to help Callum out of his crisis. Though he harbors a secret crush on his handsome friend, now isn’t the time to act on it. As it should be, Callum’s priority is Sophie’s well-being. But living with Callum full-time only makes Reid want a long-term commitment to him--something he’s never wanted before. When Callum’s bid for custody of his niece is jeopardized by his single marital status and lack of financial resources, Reid suggests they marry and create a stable home life for Sophie that is sure to impress a family court judge. Despite the seemingly perfect solution to his problems, Callum is torn between his need to create a perfect family for Sophie and his growing desire for Reid, a man he is convinced is out of his league.
