Sheltered Hearts

Is it possible for two people from completely different worlds to build a life together? Bijan is a man whose life is never boring. After leaving the Air Force, he settles down in a pretty little city on the Atlantic. While the place seems idyllic, he quickly learns that a small, yet seedy underworld exists. He decides to devote his second career to social work and running several outreach programs. One day, a man named Jimmy comes in to make inquires. And it's not long before he's causing trouble. However, there's something about Jimmy that catches Bijan's eye. The two men meet again while Bijan is trying to help a homeless teenager. It turns out that Jimmy does the same sort of work and watches over those afraid to seek assistance. For Bijan, there's an instant attraction, but after learning the secrets of Jimmy's past, it's one he isn't sure the other man could ever return. Will Bijan finally get Jimmy to open up and accept his love? Or will the secrets in Jimmy's past be too much for him to accept?
