For three years, Feodor Markova has helped the other Heaven hounds and angels wherever it is needed. Not liking to be in charge, or very good with others, he does all the solo tasks necessary. The only bright moment is when he gets to look at one of the saved souls, a teacher. Pining away for someone he can't have, he doesn't realize in all these years that his mate is there with him.
Right under his nose.
Joel Sweet loves being an English teacher-it's who he is. Never mind the fact that he lusts after one of the hounds and has been for a while. What should have been a happy beginning to a happily ever after, isn't. Joel has too many insecurities to vocalize what needs to be said.
Feodor only wants what the others have. The love of his one true mate. Unfortunately, things don't turn out the way he hopes. Both men are too afraid to speak up, and a chasm forms between them. Letting their individual fears win.
Can they bridge the distance that's between them or will the new upheaval in their lives, the demons, family and friends keep them from defeating fear?
