Paul Hannon moved to Tucker Springs for his girlfriend, but
she’s left him with a house he can’t afford and a pantry
full of useless gadgets. All Paul wants is to get back to
normal, even if he's not sure what that is anymore. When he
wanders into Tucker Pawn for a gift to win her back, he
meets El Rozal, pawn shop owner and all-around cynic.
El Rozal doesn’t do relationships, especially not with
clueless straight boys still pining for their ex. El may
make his living dealing in castoffs, but that doesn't apply
to men. Still, when Paul starts clearing out his old life,
pawning kitchen equipment he never wanted in the first
place, El is drawn to Paul in spite of himself.
Paul and El have nothing in common except a past full of
disappointments. There's no reason to believe the two of
them could fit, but in El’s line of work, one man’s junk is
another man’s treasure. When it comes to love, El and Paul
may learn that secondhand doesn't mean second best.
