   Summary

   He sank down on the edge of the bed and tried to breathe. It came out in a shudder. And then another. Until his face cracked and his chest caved, and suddenly he was crying—full-on, open-mouthed, shoulder-shaking sobs into the fabric of his sleeves.

   Not because Billy said no. Not really.

   But because Billy laughed.

   Summary

   Hughie Campbell just wanted a job. What he got was a PI firm full of chaos, coffee, found family, and one very grumpy man who can’t seem to leave him alone.

   He’s blind, not fragile—and he’s definitely ready for what comes next.
