Reawaken — Christina Lee

Losing his adoring husband shattered Tristan Rogers's world. For the past few years, he's been going through the motions, running their dog grooming business while hiding the loneliness he feels down to his bones. When he witnesses an ugly breakup between a pretentious customer and his boyfriend, Tristan can't help but intervene. Something about the unassuming younger man calls to him, and he can't help wondering if he's experienced some heartache of his own. 

Life took a tragic turn for Jonas “West” Hollis as a teen, and he's felt indebted to his overbearing lover ever since. Tristan's kindness draws him from the start, but with his dreams finally in reach, West can't risk getting close to someone else. Not now that he can live his life and stand on his own merit.

 From innocent texts to companionable rides on Tristan's boat, what starts as an unexpected friendship between the men sparks into undeniable attraction. Neither are ready for anything deeper than a couple of passionate nights wrapped in each other's arms but their connection becomes too intense for either to ignore. If Tristan and West want to heal their broken hearts, they'll need a considerable amount of trust and courage -- not only in themselves, but also each other.
