He’s straight. He’s my best friend. He’s my date for the weekend. Best plan ever? Or recipe for disaster? Josh McAllister’s life has just been turned upside down. Dumped by his boyfriend and passed over for the promotion he had earned, he was pretty sure he’d hit rock bottom. Except no… that would come when he had to attend his cousin’s wedding without a date. When he had to endure the inevitable whispers and the pitying looks. He just needed a break. A friendly face. A chance to breathe. And then, maybe he could start to put his life back together again. Kevin Duncan has been on a losing streak. A long one. He lost his dad to a long, painful illness, and lost his college scholarship when he had to drop out and become the bread winner. He’ll probably lose his job any day now, and then he might just lose his mind. He’s been living in his own private hell for the past two years, but when a blast from his past walks into his bar one night, Kevin finally starts to remember what it felt like to win. What it felt like to be alive. The two best friends promised to always have each other’s backs, but life somehow got in the way. Now they’ve been reunited just when they happen to need each other the most. Kevin has always looked out for Josh. Josh needs Kevin’s help in a way he never could have imagined. It takes a trip back home—and back down memory lane—to make them realize that the friendship they almost lost is the most important thing in their lives. But what happens when one of them wants more?

We’re all wrong for each other. He’s almost twice my age…it can never work. Mark Fletcher had the perfect life. At forty years old, he had a good job that let him travel to New York a few times a year. He had a big house with a big yard and a pool in the Cincinnati suburbs. He had a pension plan and a career that would keep him comfortable for the rest of his life. It wasn’t until he met Brandon Day that he realized how much his perfect life actually lacked. Brandon Day wasn’t ready for a relationship. He wasn’t even looking for a one-night stand. Finding someone who could hold his interest outside of the bedroom would have been nice, but he wasn’t holding his breath. Something complicated and long-distance was completely out of the question. Until a banker from Ohio made him start to change his mind about… everything. They only plan on spending a single night together. When that night turns into one week and then into two, will it be enough time to overcome all of the obstacles that stand between them? One of them will have to give up everything to take a chance on something that isn’t guaranteed to work. How do they decide?

Everyone says we’d be perfect together. But how do we justify risking our friendship for something that might not work out? Justin Hayes has been friends with Colt for as long as he can remember. They grew up down the street from each other. They graduated together and have been roommates on Christopher Street ever since. People have always said they’d make a great couple, but Justin and Colt decided a long time ago that it would never work. With their dating pool in New York feeling more shallow than ever and the rest of their friends talking about marriage, Justin is beginning to wonder if he and Colt might be missing their chance to find love. Colt Baxter has never had time for love. He’s dated plenty of guys but never felt that special spark that people always talk about. And anyway, he has everything he could want in a partner already in his best friend, Justin. Still, with everyone around them talking about settling down, Colt knows it’s only a matter of time before he and Justin have to make some difficult decisions. Even the best of friends don’t end up living together forever. When Justin and Colt get invited to tag along on Brandon and Mark’s honeymoon in the Bahamas, it feels like the perfect time to cut loose, have fun, and try things they’ve never done before. Things they’ve both fantasized about. They can’t stay in paradise forever, though. Will their friendship survive when it’s time to go back home? Or will they risk losing it all to take a chance on these new feelings that might not last?
