Turkish Delights

Three very different men from three different countries look to build a love greater than any Wonder of the World.

Project manager Garrett Sloan builds majestic hotels for the rich and famous around the world, but when it comes to love, all his relationships seem to crumble. His latest project lands him in Istanbul, where the desire he's held for a certain French architect heats under the Middle Eastern sun, and his resolve never to mix business with pleasure melts beneath the added fiery stare and skilled hands of a Turkish mason.

The three men discover they want to build a relationship to stand the test of time-much like Kyle LaFleure's buildings and Emir ?ahin's stonework. As the bonds between Garrett and his partners grow stronger and more complex, they work to lay the perfect foundation on which to build a lasting relationship. Can the three men construct a relationship that will endure? Or will their love reach its zenith when their shared task of finishing the ultimate Ottoman luxury hotel reaches its completion?

But each time joy radiates from the champion's blue eyes, Justin feels the walls he's built around his heart crumble brick by brick. Building a life together may be their toughest battle, especially when a surprise visit from Justin's estranged family forces them to face unexpected challenges.
