Tom Foster and Noah Webster have been together for three years. In that time, Tom has completed his doctorate, Noah has begun working on his master's, and both men have come into their own as performers. Suddenly international recognition becomes a reality instead of a dream. They even perform at the dedication of a concert hall at the University of Aragoni.<br><br>But it's not all smooth sailing. They still have to battle Noah's Uncle Joe over the division of property he owned with Noah's late father. Tom's father has been distant ever since Tom chose music over law school. And Noah's mother's attitude toward his relationship with Tom leaves something to be desired. With their busy performance schedules, will Tom and Noah be able to make peace with their parents and get a fair deal?

“It’s not exactly rocket science,” she said, and smiled.


“Noah, are you going to be able to tolerate the pressure of underwear over that?” he said.

He pulled the shorts up and fastened the belt as loosely as possible.


“Then let’s get you back on the bed.”


“Why can’t I just sit in the easy chair?”
