One-Touch Pass

Nate meets a stranger at a party, and in the span of seventeen minutes, his life changes. Marcos meets a stranger at a party and wonders if the universe is laughing at him. His life has become a seemingly endless stream of bad days. Everything is a struggle, from his friendship with Max to the simple act of changing in the locker room after a baseball game. Stress and anxiety sit so heavily on his shoulders, he can barely function under the weight of it. Starting a relationship is the very last thing he wants or feels he deserves. Particularly when Nate—beautiful, gregarious, and kind Nate— could have anybody he wanted. If there is one thing Marcos knows, it's this: Nate deserves someone far better than him. But despite his best efforts to keep him away, Nate persists. He knows what he wants. He wants Marcos. He wants to coax him out of his shell, take him horseback riding, and treat him right. Seventeen minutes isn't enough for Nate and Marcos. Includes a bonus chapter! Contains mature content. A complete list of content warnings can be found on the author's website.
