Winter Husbands (Creatures & Coding #4)
Rhea Fox

When Noah Bright returns home to Scotland for winter the last thing he counted on was to run into the boy who broke his heart all those years ago, the one he tried to escape and manage to evade for over a decade. Time hasn't stood still for either of them and Lewis with his dad bod is the plushy hybrid of Noah's dreams.
When Noah opens up to him about his financial situation, Lewis offers to be his fake boyfriend for social media to help him get his income back up. Lewd pictures with this pretty kitty should do the trick. The lines between fake and real soon blur, but it's Cuffing Season, and Noah isn't opposed to having a Winter Husband while he's in Scotland. When he accidentally puts down way more roots than intended, his rapidly approaching return to Bali becomes more a threat than an escape.
LEWIS
Lewis Sinclair had a lot of growing up to do. Falling in love with his best friend's brother on top of puberty did him dirty. For over a decade he's been trying to be the person Noah Bright should have had in him—even without Noah's knowledge. When he accidentally offers to pose as his fake boyfriend for social media, his chance to woo Noah is finally there. And his sweet little puppy never questions why he acts the part even when the camera is off.
Lew is determined not to blow this last chance. Noah seems to have forgotten the pact they made as kids; he hasn't, and with Noah's 30th birthday only a few months away, it's now or never.
Yet the day of Noah's departure looms over them like a dark cloud. Lewis is convinced Noah doesn't want to return, but how will he make the man see? Or maybe their love was always meant to be just a story for the books.
