Father. Giver. Dreamer. He's a man of reality. Alan, a stay-at-home dad ruled by his wife, yearns for adventure, companionship, and happiness. After a vicious showdown with his spouse, his headlong flight takes him into the path of an oncoming car. Charmer. Playboy. Grifter. He's a man of mystery. Terrence, a drifter who makes his way by taking advantage of the kindness of others, is really on the run this time. His headlong flight takes him from Los Angeles to New York with the help of a handsome meal ticket, Jared. No one knows that Alan and Terrence are one and the same – not even the man himself. Terrence and Jared's deal to exchange sex for transport moves them along from the tables in Vegas to relaxing spas and fancy hotels; while Jared finds himself falling in love, Terrence believes it has to end. But just as they are ready to admit their relationship could change, Alan's wife tracks him down. Who will survive? The brave, outgoing Terrence? Or quiet, withdrawn Alan?

Madeleine Urban is a down-home Kentucky girl who’s been writing since she could hold a crayon. Although she has written and published on her own, she truly excels when writing with co-authors. She lives with her husband, who is very supportive of her work, and two canine kids who only allow her to hug them when she has food. She wants to live at Disney World, the home of fairy dust, because she believes that with hard work, a little luck, and beloved family and friends, dreams really can come true. Visit Madeleine's blog at http://madeleineurban.livejournal.com/. You can contact her at mrs.madeleine.urban@gmail.com. Listen to Madeleine interviewed by Peter Godbold on the Strictly Confidential Radio Show MADELEINE URBAN RETIRED Nov. 17, 2011 - I have made the personal decision to stop writing, for reasons that are important to me, including focusing on my family and my health. Writing and publishing comes with a whole set of expectations and pressures, and I find that it's just too much. While I am sad that this will upset and/or even anger readers, this is the right decision for me. Abigail Roux will be continuing the Ty and Zane series, and I know she'll do a great job.
