Pete Benson is not happy. He has a boring going nowhere job and to save money he lives with his grandmother because living with his homophobic parents isn't an option. A knee injury meant Pete had missed the majority of the previous rugby season. His general unhappiness at life plus the enforced lack of activity resulted in his weight and his waistline ballooning, and his self-confidence plummeting. Knowing he needs to make a change, a reluctant Pete agrees to accompany his friend to her weight loss group. Despite his friend's reassurances, Pete fears he'll stick out as the meeting will be full of women. It is, but there is one other man present ... Bear. And what a man.  Pete is instantly attracted to Bear, who rocks the whole lumberjack look with his flannel shirt and tight jeans. The bald head and full beard only add to the man's sex appeal. And those dark blue eyes ... But a man like Bear won't be interested in a fat lump like Pete.  The lost and hopeless demeanour Pete exudes speaks to something within Bear, but Bear is happy, okay, content, living the single bachelor life. However, Bear would swear BJ is doing his doggy best to push Bear and Pete together. Not that Bear objects. Those firm, strong rugby player thighs of Pete's turn Bear on something fierce.  When it's Man of the Year Award time again, will the group have a choice of who to vote for?
