Perry Goodwood is a young and effusive designer-turned-stylist hoping to make ends meet in working at a PR firm in London. It's certainly not easy working back from the financial disaster his ex-boyfriend created. Having won a reputation for sprucing up the most truculent of clients, Perry's tasked with tracking down the fifth Ventura brother for a possible reality TV show. Thing is, Greg Ventura dislikes his brothers completely, and is living in the remote Scottish isle of North Uist. 
 Greg Ventura stopped opening letters from his brothers once he flatly refused to be a part of any TV scheme they'd cooked up. He spent years being ridiculed and put down for his lanky body, clumsiness, and disinterest in girls. Doesn't matter that he's "blossomed" into a capable attractive artist. He still carries those wounds close to his heart. So, ignoring their communications leads to a soaked Perry turning up on the doorstep of his croft. Seemed he was notified the half-drowned man was arriving, though he didn't realize it, and Greg's the only person who could put Perry up for the night. 
 Perry's not encouraged by his lack of reception, and his lack of support; usually his agency sends a team of personnel to go along with a make-over, but Perry's been left to his own devices, isolated with a wary Greg in their remote locale. It's unsettling, and upsetting to say the least. Though, Perry puts a good face on it. He doesn't try to pressure Greg, sure that this capable outsdoorsman and artist will never cave to demands. No, instead he works within Greg's space, clearing out messes and making himself generally useful. His attention begins to turn Greg's head, and the confidence of having a sexy young man find him attractive leads to Greg feeling somewhat more positively about himself. 
 It's interesting that I've, unwittingly, read a few body image books in a row. I really liked Perry and Greg's dynamic and level of support they offer one another. They are both decent guys and want to have happy, settled lives. Neither expects the other to make his world complete, but they are open to the idea of companionship and romance-for the little time they expect to spend together. They build each other up, with Perry helping Greg see himself with new compassionate eyes, meanwhile, Greg teaches Perry how to swim and do manual tasks he'd never intended. Also, Greg's self-isolation is no match for Perry's natural friendliness. Perry helps Greg make more friends in his small town, and come out on his own terms. I liked that part, and there's a bit more sexytimes than I expected-not that there's a WHOLE lot, but the format of book in this series has been a little light on the sexy. So, that was a fun bonus.
