Twenty years ago, Sebastian was too young for the feelings he had for his older stepbrother, but the death of Dylan's father has brought them back together.
It took years for Dylan and his dad to build their shop's reputation for authentic restoration of classic American muscle cars. Why the hell would he share it with a big city lawyer he hasn't seen since their parents' divorce? But he doesn't want to dishonor his father's dying wish.
When Sebastian returns to Maine and learns of his inheritance, their attraction flares into a passion neither of them expects.
Hard Chrome is a second chance, small town romance with an age gap between a hot-tempered mechanic and a cool-as-a-cucumber lawyer, competence kink (on both sides), a 1955 Ford Thunderbird in need of restoration, meddling best friends (and former best friends), a cat named Simone and a dog named Giles, at least three hundred houseplants, and car sex.
