Londoner Ernest Porter wasn’t looking for love that Saturday morning. Nor was he looking where he was going.

Fortunately PC Liam McAvoy was looking, and saves Ernest from falling into a hole caused by a missing manhole cover.

The weather is hot, and wanting to thank Liam for saving him, Ernest offers the policeman a glass of ice tea. They talk and Ernest finds himself increasingly drawn to the young constable. But it can’t go anywhere. Liam isn’t gay, there’s a big age difference between them, and Ernest is still hurting from a previous betrayal.

After weeks of internal struggle, Ernest finally confesses all. Liam’s reaction is not what Ernest expects.
