Fool Me Twice
When lightning strikes twice, you might get burned.
Zig’s trying to build a life for himself after falling in with the wrong crowd in his teens. When his no-good dad threatens to force him back into crime, he runs all the way to Glastonbury. He’s just hoping his former sweetheart—whom he’s always remembered as the one good man he knows—won’t slam the door in his face.
Si—Scratch to his mates—is blindsided when his gorgeous ex turns up on his doorstep looking better than ever. Although Si’s still nursing a broken heart six years after breaking up with Zig over his lifestyle, he welcomes him back into his life, no questions asked. He’s determined not to let him back into his heart, though; Si’s learned that lesson.
Before, Si was the naïve youngster and Zig the worldly jack-the-lad. Now, Si’s grown into his confidence as well as his muscles, while Zig’s had to face some harsh truths about himself. Despite their doubts, and those of Si’s mates, they’re drawn back to one another. But Zig’s dad has a score to settle that could ruin their second chance—and their lives—forever.
