Jamie Makepeace isn't sure what to do with his work or his love life. Laid off at his job and at odds with his ultra-conservative boyfriend, Micah, he's searching for something to fill the empty spots. He decides that he has to change his life; he's just not sure how. When Jamie takes his friend Dune to a work-related wedding, he meets Ben Gallagher, the cake decorator, and a man he desperately wants to kiss. Jamie knows he's found a friend. Taking a chance, Jamie turns to art for his new career, and Ben becomes his muse. He creates an entire show based on the man who is always there for him. The problem with Ben is that he's been hurt by love in the past, and might not be willing to risk his friendship with Jamie for something more. Especially with Micah still in the picture, complicating things even more. Can Ben get past his fear and see that all that Jamie has to offer before it's too late?
