Years ago, Wes Stanhope fled his hometown of Charleston to escape the constraints of society and his controlling father, Colonel Robert Lee Stanhope IV. After completing medical school and building a successful practice in pediatric oncology in Seattle, Wes is called home for his motherโs funeral and presented with an opportunity to build and run a childrenโs hospitalโhis motherโs legacyโa choice he ultimately makes despite his misgivings about his fatherโs role as chairman of the hospitalโs board of directors. When Wes begins to build his team, he is introduced to a young, handsome black architect named Tyler Williams. Sparks begin to fly between the two men, and although Wes doesnโt identify as gay, denying his attraction to Ty becomes impossible. But Ty wonโt be a dirty secret: if Wes wants to build a relationship, heโll have to come out, brave his fatherโs racism and homophobia, and risk his chance to continue as the hospitalโs CEO and realize his motherโs dream.
