Résumé :
Matt Carlson, a dedicated and resilient roughneck in the oil industry, is scarred by the loss of his partner to cancer. To help him get over his grief, he takes a trip to Taos, NM, to visit his family and enjoy the culture the city offers. His life turns unexpectedly when he encounters the evocative sculptures of local artist Cameron Walsh at an art exhibition.

As their paths cross again at a local gym, Matt and Cameron start a conversation that evolves into a deep exploration of shared grief, personal stories, and the discovery of an unexpected bond: they once went to high school together, and Cameron always had a thing for Matt.

But even as their romance blossoms, Matt's fear of losing another loved one resurfaces, challenging the budding relationship. With Cameron's unwavering support, Matt finally confronts his own fears and grief, learning to embrace the prospect of love and happiness once again.
