"Love is Sacrifice." As one of Gideon’s Angels, Derek lives a carefree, sexual life with no thoughts of commitments or boyfriends. Living it up with his fellow porn stars is fulfillment enough—until he literally runs into sweet, shy Patrick at a gay Pride event in Chicago. Unprepared for the aftershocks, Derek is suddenly off his game and treading uncharted waters when he learns of the unusual life choices Patrick has made for himself. As Derek quickly falls for the cute boy, he can’t help but wonder what he’s gotten himself into… and if it’s something he can live with.

"When love is involved...no sacrifice is too great." With Patrick out of his life, Derek attempts to go on with daily life and put the young man out of his mind. But thoughts of Patrick haunt his heart and his dreams. With help from his friends—and a deeper look within his own heart—Derek begins to understand that love is not just a “feeling”… but a willingness to sacrifice. Patrick struggles to convince himself and Brian that he wants nothing to do with Derek, but with each passing day, that conviction weakens. When everything concerning Derek is suddenly exposed to everyone in his life, Patrick finds himself alone, no longer certain who is friend or foe... or who he can trust.
