ER doctor Dusty Lowry grew up in a conservative rural Texas family that has never quite forgiven him for staying in New Mexico after his stint in the Army. Paramedic Nate Miller, Dusty's best friend since their early Army days, has a hippie momma, a tiny apartment, and is in lust with his buddy. When their other Army friend, Kyle, gets married, they start thinking about settling down. In fact, they both know what they want: each other.
Too bad they've never shared that goofy little fact.A trip to visit Dusty's family in Texas changes everything, and Dusty and Nate aren't sure where to go from there. Good thing they're smart guys, and between a series of bombings that target first responders, their friend Kyle's wife getting pregnant, and more than one bowl of guacamole, they begin to figure out how to have a relationship.But as the bombings get closer to home, Nate and Dusty must navigate love and commitment before they lose their chance.
