“Against the odds, I like you.”

Santa Barbara fire chief Jace Williams hit rock bottom: suspended from work, unable to escape the dreams, and distant from family. He just got divorced from his cheating husband, but it takes six months to be single in California law. How did his perfect, organized life turn into this disaster?

As messy and spontaneous as Jace is tidy, Charles Bryan instantly dislikes Jace. He teaches and practices hang-gliding between visiting his aging father who can’t remember he dumped his abusive ex years ago. It’s easy to hide a lot with a smile, and he follows a whim into fun-to-tease Jace’s arms.

Despite their clashing personalities, planning a wedding together overcomes Charlie’s dislike of strings and Jace’s reluctance to commit. Neither of them expected to find the one at the best, yet worst, possible time. Is this what real love feels like?

However, disaster breeds change, and soon their lives are like nothing they had ever dreamed.

And almost unnoticed, the truth of the True Omega begins to emerge.
