Lumber & Law — Jena Wade

A few months after his brother's accident, Jesse Brody can't stop thinking about Troy Evans, the police officer that helped solve the case. Even though Troy almost had to arrest him, Jesse is sure he has a shot at a date.

The two meet by chance and share a nice dinner at Jesse's apartment, which ends with Jesse all over Troy's lap. Though he isn't out at work, Troy agrees to give a relationship with Jesse a chance. Everything is fine, until the two are seen in public together by some of Troy's coworkers.

Out of panic, Troy ends the relationship. Of course he regrets his decision, but it will take more than just an apology to win Jesse back.
