Jixit

Colin Jix is a loner. He's had to be, due to a unique ability that is also a curse. So he lives in a remote mountain town where he limits his contact with other people. He's settled into his solitary life and resigned himself to be alone. That is until Dot Tate shows up with a broken down car and needs his help. Neither can fight their immediate attraction, even though he tries to remain distant. But then as he uncovers a tragic secret and must step outside his comfort zone to make things right, he discovers his curse is actually a gift.

Story does contain mild erotic sexual situations, so no one under the age of 18 should read it.
