Prodigal
To cope with his father's recent death from cancer, conscientious and straitlaced Midwestern graduate student Shea Matherson returns to his family's old vacation cabin, long since sold, in order to keep his final promise to his father. When he arrives at the cabin exhausted and injured, however, he's surprised to encounter a trespasser named Jamie, a defiant and sarcastic wanderer with an intellectual streak who travels and works odd jobs to support his burgeoning writing career. As the pair resign themselves to sharing the cabin, they build a surprisingly intense bond: Jamie struggles to cope with the privileged but openhearted Shea as Shea struggles to cope with the death of his father. When their burgeoning closeness finally leads to a night of pleasure, they agree to enjoy a sexy weekend together with no strings attached. What neither of them anticipate is that the passion or tenderness kindled in the heat of the moment will linger after they part ways. Or that when Jamie shows up at Shea's door a week later for an unannounced stay, the feelings sparked by their cabin rendezvous will dismantle Shea's comfortable, unassuming life...and tempt the stubborn Jamie to abandon his solitary journey.
