For Peter Thompson being an EMT has always been the most important thing in his life taking precedence over almost everything, even his love life. He always thought there would be time to find the right man…time to fall in love and have a family of his own. Then suddenly he was forty years old and he figured it was time to change his priorities. If only it were that easy. At forty he found that half the men he approached thought he was too old and the other half wanted the ones that thought he was too old. He found it hard to believe that the prestige of catching the youngest and prettiest, even for one night, would take the place of actually trying to find someone to love.

At thirty-nine, Colin Decker wasn’t a lonely man but he was alone. Seven months out of a bad relationship and a bad breakup he took solace and comfort in running his small catering company. He didn’t believe he was ready to meet someone new but he also knew that his best friend, Jeannie, was dying to introduce him to her brother-in-law. Peter and how perfect they were for each other was all that she talked about when they would go out to lunch but Colin had exacted a promise from her that she would wait until he felt he was ready…but he knew Jeannie Thompson very well…she was already planning and waiting for the right opportunity.
