    Summary

    First Light - Between darkness and sunrise lies a glimmer of hope and the promise of a new day.

    27-year-old Nick Nelson finds himself living temporarily back at home with his mum following the end of his rugby career and his long term relationship. Needing a new focus he finds himself trawling the internet one night and discovers a mesmerising opportunity, the kind of opportunity he'd usually be quick to turn down, because that's what he's always done, stayed safe, taken the obvious path, and look where that's got him!
    Deciding to go for it, he's expecting hard work, long hours and no social life.
    What he's not expecting are a whole host of new neighbours and friends, including one who makes him question everything he thought he knew about himself.
    However, Nick is hiding a big secret. A secret that, if revealed, could drive a wedge between him, his new friends and the one person he never knew he needed in his life.

    Summary

    "This will turn out so well, I swear!” Darcy giggles before they take back a step to admire their creation. “I should call it ‘bisexual disaster looking for a partner’ and add your number scribbled on the back. I bet people will be standing in front of it drooling at the exhibition next month.”

    “Lovely, Darce. You don’t sound vain at all.”

    “I’m just saying! All this working out for rugby’s really paying off, and I say that as an absolute lesbian! And adding my art to your genes, it just screams success.”

    Nick shakes his head slowly, biting back his laugh. “I only hope it will get you good grades for your course. I don’t want to find a partner over this.”

    Darcy is a sculptor, Nick their friend and one-time model who might find a partner after all and Charlie a visitor to an art exhibition with a thing for muscles.
