Nothing to Know

"We already made it count. We made it count so much it hurts."

Jameson Sinclair, once the NHL's prettiest and mouthiest superstar, has had trouble finding his footing since a horrific injury pulled him out of arenas and off gossip sites. Mateo Zavala has built a comfortably boring life around work and family, content with years lacking the highs and lows of a stunning hockey career. The night Jamie and Mateo meet is almost magical, full of tentative touches, first kisses, and wishes made upon a shooting star. Neither will call it love at first sight, but by the next morning, they know they don't want to let go of what they've found. They daydream about a future together, and make plans for a second date, ready for all the ways their lives are going to change.

Then they meet again and realize all the ways their lives are going to change will come with bruises that won't heal and scars that won't fade. Their feelings for each other haven't dimmed, but circumstances will keep them apart. As years go by, and friendship is all they can have, Jamie and Mateo make pleas of wait for me, not yet, and I love you. Lines are drawn and redrawn every time they dance on top of them, but is it enough to love each other in secret? How long can they wait to have a real relationship before they wonder whether there's a secret to keep at all?

Nothing to Know is an achy right person/wrong time romance spanning years of a very requited love, and the messy road two men take to reach their happily ever after.
