Moving to a new town is stressful for Alex, but he loves working as a veterinarian. Living in Foggy Basin seems perfect…until he's asked to participate in the annual date auction. Revealing he's gay to the whole town seems unwise, but it's a good cause, and what could it hurt?

After being a jerk to Alex, Ryan decides to make it up to him by bidding on his date at the auction. The event is for charity and means nothing…or does it?

Ryan doesn't expect the emotions and desire, and Alex is surprised by Ryan's interest. Can they become more than friends, or should they step away from desire and ignore the pull between them?
