After an explosive fight with his wife, Castiel Novak finds himself divorced and unemployed at thirty-four years old. Reduced to living with his cousin, Gabriel, he runs into the last person he expected to see: his ex-roommate and best friend, Dean Winchester. In a fit of generosity, Dean makes an offer to Castiel: move out of Gabriel’s house and into his. At least until Castiel gets back on his feet. Living with Dean is easy, and almost immediately, Castiel and Dean fall back into their old friendship. And living with Dean awakens other feelings in Castiel, ones that he once thought impossible (doesn’t everyone appreciate the aesthetic qualities of their roommates?). But the specter of one disastrous night in college hangs over them both, making it impossible for them to truly reflect on their friendship–and maybe making it impossible for them to move forward into anything real.
