Untouchable - Kay Simone - Bog

"You've been alone for years and a hot gay massage therapist shows up at your door ready to screw. That's the plot of a porn, not a romance." Morton Harper--Harp for short--is 44, divorced, hated by most of his picturesque Colorado town, and more than happy to spend the rest of his life holed up in the cabin he built on Storm Mountain. But when Harp seeks out a massage therapist to help him heal after a car accident, his whole world is turned upside down. Parker is almost two decades younger than Harp, handsome, and full of life--he should be the kind of person Harp hates. Instead, Harp finds himself reluctantly charmed by Parker's bubbly personality, his patience for all of Harp's quirks... and Parker's six-pack doesn't hurt either. "I know I can trust you. And I know you're being kind. But I'm rusty at having a friend." Parker James is a miracle worker, both with muscles and with picky clients. But with Harp, he may have met his match. From the moment he sees Harp--axe in hand, glaring at him from the front yard--Parker knows he has his work cut out for him. But though Harp is moody, ornery, and closed off, Parker keeps catching a glimpse of someone who is funny and compassionate... and wounded. As they strike up an unlikely friendship, Parker longs for more--and though Harp has hurts of his own, he's helping Parker heal his, too. "I've never had someone like you before. Someone who wanted to take care of me. Someone who made me feel like I was the most important thing in the universe." As their sessions progress, both men find themselves falling for the other. But Parker's confidence was shattered by a cruel ex and Harp is still reeling from a painful divorce and dramatic outing--and their own families and past hurts prove difficult to navigate, even as they come together. It's undeniable that Parker and Harp make each other stronger and better--but can Parker really reach someone so untouchable? Untouchable is a 275,000 word contemporary slow burn m/m romance with enemies-to-lovers, hurt/comfort, and May/December themes.
