They decide to move in together to see if their feelings can survive in the real world. Seth receives word that a mandatory autopsy was performed on his late partner because his death was a suicide. The medical examiner's findings are disturbing and leave some doubt as to the underlying cause of death. Because of the suicide clause, life insurance benefits had been denied, but in light of these new findings, Seth's lawyer advises him to appeal. The insurance investigator turns out to be the man who broke Bryce's heart twenty-five years ago. The guy has fallen on hard times, and when he sees how successful Bryce has become--and how large Seth's potential payout might be--he decides he wants a piece of the pie. Bryce and Seth's new relationship is severely tested in this second novel in the Open Series. 610 $aFiction 700 $aAshling$b Mickie B.$01435490 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910157390703321 996 $aOpen House$93593739 997 $aUNINA
