One last pour. One last chance at forever.

Mark Delgado is forty-eight, six-foot-three, and built like the twenty years of lumber he hauled. He can fix anything except his own dating life.

There's a bathhouse and an uncooperative towel. It goes about how you'd expect.

Mark's real trouble is, the only man he can't stop thinking about is the last one he should want.

Dante works the door at Mark's bar. He reads Russian novels between breaking up fights, owns the world's most anxious greyhound, and has quietly been the best thing in Mark's life for two years.

Mark's the boss. Dante's the bouncer.

One of them takes care of everybody and doesn't know how to be taken care of. The other guards every exit and swears he doesn't need anyone at all.

Neither one is looking for this... and neither one stands a chance.

Funny, swoony, and gloriously low angst, Bounced!, the Barbacks series finale, is a slow-burn, age-gap, opposites-attract love story about a big burly softie, a guarded man with a hidden past, and an anxious dog who adopts them both. No cheating, no third-act breakup, guaranteed HEA.
