Sebastian (Sen) Holt is an artist currently in New Orleans. He's always been a wanderer, believing in fate and following signs to guide his destiny. Although he itches to pull up stakes, getting a painting into a gallery keeps him rooted. One morning his good friend calls him in desperate need of help with her cleaning business. Her regular cleaner flaked, she can't lose her client, and there's no one else. The job is at a large and recently restored house—and the owner, Morgan Ballard, comes home unexpectedly. They are immediately drawn together, as if they know each other, but they've never met. As they grow closer, Morgan behaves like two people. Sometimes he's friendly and casual, and other times intimate and demanding. Sen juggles his painting through bursts of vision-like inspiration, the cleaning job, and an unexpected commission—all while trying to unlock the growing mystery of the intense connection he feels to Morgan. He's not sure which scares him more—the strangeness surrounding their growing bond or that he's found someone to make him reconsider his lifelong wanderlust.
