    Summary

    Seeing the words laid out like that so bluntly makes his heart ache. Eddie wishes he could have courted Steve properly, perhaps met him at a barn dance, chatting over cider and sneaking outside for a stolen kiss. To hold his hand and scent at his hair, only to walk him home and ask permission to call on him as is decent.

    But here he is proposing marriage in a telegram after receiving exactly one beautifully penned letter. He knows so little about this young omega, and yet his pulse races at the thought of meeting him. It could very well be fear; anxiety over making so hasty a decision, to offer his hand so quickly without exchanging more letters or requesting a photograph, something to build a foundation upon before committing ‘til death do they part.

    ❧❧❧

    Steve Harrington is a former society omega, cast out for an unforgivable indiscretion.

    Eddie Munson has just inherited his father’s small farm and become caretaker to his much younger brother.

    An advertisement and a letter bring them together, a clear attraction forms when they meet. But will that be enough to build a life upon?
