It’s Not You by Becca Seymour
True Blue, Book 6
When a protective ex-cop helps his gorgeous tenant through his recovery, their complicated history is asking for trouble. Will the fear of the past repeating itself destroy any possibility of happiness?
Daredevil drifter Lawrence Crawford is hunting for a place to call home. After ten years of looking, he believes he’s found what he’s been searching for. With a job that pays the bills and a small group of friends he’s opening up to, he lets down his guard. Perhaps too much so. Finding himself in need of support, Lawrence is forced to accept help from the one man who’s been driving him to distraction for the past year. His landlord.
Former cop Billy Hilton made a mistake—admittedly there’ve been many over the years. The latest is when he lets Lawrence believe he isn’t interested in pursuing anything with him. It’s not even the age difference or the fact the guy lives in Billy’s studio apartment that’s the problem. Instead, it’s all him. When Billy offers to play nursemaid to Lawrence, his intentions may not be pure, but they’re honest. And that honesty blows their lives wide open when Lawrence’s past comes knocking on the door, demanding changes and threatening an upheaval neither man may ever recover from.
Book five in Becca Seymour’s stand-alone low-angst, feel-good LGBTQ series, True-blue. In this small town, there are busybodies, dogs who cause chaos, families who have the “best” of timing, and opportunities for good men to find their perfect match.

A flush spread across his cheeks, and I doggedly didn’t focus on the color, refused to think about how the same pink had spread across his skin when he was mid-orgasm. “Oh, yeah, hi,” he stumbled, making me want to kick myself for being the reason he behaved this way whenever I was around. “Um, the faucet in the bathroom kinda came off in my hand this morning. I think I fixed it,” he rushed to say. “But thought you should know just in case.” He cast his gaze away, before returning and focusing on anywhere but my eyes. I sighed internally. “Thanks. You good if I head in and take a look, check it out?” Lawrence nodded. “That’s fine. I’ll show you.” It was on the tip of my tongue to remind him I’d be able to figure it out. The over-the-garage apartment was tiny, but that he wasn’t immediately running away from me was something different. I latched on to the opportunity. As I followed him up the staircase, I willed myself to stop perving on his ass. I allowed one quick peek before focusing over his head. Once inside, he led me to the bathroom and indicated which faucet it was. There was no other option but to brush past him, the space tiny. I did so and controlled my breathing, my reaction. Screwing this up even more by panting over him was not an option. “So, yeah, I didn’t reseal it or anything, but I can head to the store and get something. I wanted to make sure it was right first.” I peered over to where he now stood in the open doorway. This time his gaze connected with mine. Awareness flashed through me, bringing a smile to my lips that he wasn’t rushing away. “Thanks. I have some in the house, so no need.” I turned back and checked the fittings, crouching down, then shifting to my knees, ignoring the wince when I put pressure on my metal knee. In this position, I was all too aware I had my ass up in the air. I wondered—hoped, maybe—that I had his attention. Just maybe I could get him interested enough so that I could break down these barriers I’d forced up. There was nothing more I wanted than to make this right. I breathed steadily, knowing I was too old to be playing games like this. Forty-three and pining after a guy in his late twenties, and more than that, using my ass in attempt to distract the guy. Christ, I really was a dick.
