Summary: Matthew Doner is starting over. After a five-year prison term that alters every aspect of his life, he receives a bequest from his aunt with the stipulation that he use the money to make things right. Breaking free of the long-standing role he's played and inspired by the few who support him, he decides to create a safe place where people like him can find purpose and start a new life. Julian Capeletti likes challenges. He is confident, brash, stubborn, and just what Matt needs. Desperate for work after a downturn of luck, he accepts the job to renovate Matt's crumbling building. Over the course of a year, romance simmers between them as they restore the house. But there's a bigger renovation that must take place in their hearts. To become better men, they need to learn to trust each other even with secrets and painful memories they fear may rip them apart.

ABS LUST PLAYER: MM Desire #208
…Here we were three weeks later. Garrett and I were checking out the island as our plane dropped toward a private airstrip at the end of an island in the Caribbean. As we disembarked from the jet, a driver greeted us and prepared to take us to our accommodations. “Welcome, gentlemen. I’m Casey. I will escort you to the estate and serve as your butler while you are visiting us.” “Great, I’m Ty.” “And I’m Garrett. Nice to meet you, Casey.” “I only saw one building on the island when we were landing. Are there others? How many people live here?” I asked. “There is only one home on the island. There are several other security buildings and maintenance buildings, but we have them very well camouflaged. The owner and his husband live in the home part-time. They are in Europe right now. The security force is here full time. We protect his island extremely well,” the driver explained. Holy shit! The house was only one story, but it was massive. When dad described the place as sprawling, he very much understated the reality of the place. The rooms were enormous, and the house seemed to stretch on forever. There was a sea of marble everywhere, including on the floors of the master bedroom. The house extended out onto a point of the island. One step below the floor level, an integrated assembly of patios, decks, and gardens surrounded the house on three sides. A multitude of chairs, chase lounges, tables, and hammocks were available for our leisure. A long serpentine swimming pool about 20 feet wide with an infinity outer border surrounded the decks, patios, and gardens. The water level was but four inches below the level of the patios. Water from the pool spilled over the infinity wall at various points, creating waterfalls as it dropped some 30 feet into a second pool surrounding the three sides of the estate. The lower pool was at least twice as wide as the upper pool. This was the largest privately owned pool complex I had ever seen. When I saw the smooth 30 foot shear wall with a finely textured surface, I wondered if in fact it might serve a secondary role as a security feature. Hmm, no way to free climb that wall with no lips or edges on the infinity pool for a grappling hook to lodge on. And the finely textured surface would prevent the use of suction cups to climb it. This has to be a security feature. Palm trees highlighted the house, the pool, and the beach in various locations. The lavish landscaping created a perfect ambiance for the stunning master bedroom. Besides the largest bed I had ever seen in the largest bedroom I had ever seen, it was on the terminal end of the house facing the end of the point toward the West. We enjoyed breathtaking sunsets every evening. The architect of the place had definitely planned it well. Floor to ceiling windows formed three of the walls of the master bedroom, providing a gorgeous panoramic view. Pushing one button caused all the glass walls to disappear, allowing a comfortable light breeze to waft through the room. We were inside, but it felt like we were going to be sleeping right on the beach. We could hear the endless crashing of waves on the shore below us. Casey, our driver, put our luggage in the closet of the master bedroom while we walked to the dinning room for dinner. Since we found no one there, we went into the kitchen where the chef immediately garnered our attention. He was stunningly handsome, sported a lithe physique, and was only about 25 years old. His attire of a chef’s apron and nothing else definitely shocked our expectations. The truly gorgeous bare ass of a man who actively engaged in fitness training shined through the back of his apron. When he turned and saw the rather stunned look on our faces, he said, “Hi guys, I’m Jordy, your chef. We heard you guys like to spend a lot of time relaxing au naturel. Casey and I are kinda fond of a free lifestyle as well. We figured if we relaxed our clothing standards, you would feel much more comfortable about skittering around here in the buff as well. You are the only guests on the island for the duration of your stay, so dress up, dress down, or undress as you see fit. We are here to serve your needs in any way we can. No matter what you might need, just call on us anytime.” Is he suggesting what I think he is suggesting? “Thank you,” I said to Jordy just as Casey came strolling in wearing nothing but a butler’s apron. Garrett and I immediately looked at each other, and our eyebrows bounced in a silent communication between us. Clearly, we were thinking the same thing. The next two weeks were going to be our chance to recreate our three days of nudity when we first met. After we finished a wonderful dinner, we went to our bedroom and removed all of our clothes. As we strolled naked through various rooms of the house to explore our accommodations, the warm glow of the sun falling rapidly toward the horizon suddenly caught my eye. The amber rays reflected beautifully off of the highly polished marble floor in the great room. Suddenly, I couldn’t resist the urge to lie down on my back in the middle of that picturesque scene and pull Garrett down on top of me. He had his legs folded up at my sides and his chest resting against mine. I held his sexy toes in my hands as we kissed lovingly. In no time, my throbbing…Word Count: 19,400
