City planner Remy McIntosh is looking forward to spending the holidays with his lover, architect Lane Anders. For the past six months, he’s been planning the perfect getaway -- two weeks in a forest cabin at the foot of the Appalachian Mountains. Remy also has a special gift he can't wait to give Lane on Christmas Day: a wedding ring. But Remy's ex-wife changes her Christmas plans at the last minute, and asks him to take care of their eight-year-old son, Braeden. Remy loves spending time with his son, but balks at the idea of taking a child along on vacation. The main problem is that Braden has never met Lane, and doesn't know his father is gay. Lane is ready to take his relationship with Remy to the next level, and has a secret Christmas gift of his own. Having a young boy along will put a crimp in their plans, to be sure, but Lane wants to be a part of every aspect of Remy's life, and that includes Braden. How will Braden deal with meeting the "other man" in his father's life? What happens when Remy’s romantic holiday for two must also include his son?

Just the Three of Us

But just when he started to stroke their erections, a knock on the bedroom door interrupted him.


“Fuck,” Lane muttered, rubbing his eyes with the heel of his hand.


Remy ducked down, resting his forehead on Lane’s chest. Raising his voice, he called out, “What is it?”


From the other side of the door came the muffled reply. “Daddy, there’s no TP.”


“Toilet paper,” Remy explained. He tried to remember what the bathroom had looked like the night before, when he gave Lane a tour of the cabin. Had there been any toilet paper out? He couldn’t recall, but he knew they hadn’t bothered to pick up any at Wal-Mart. “Damn it.”


Braden knocked again. “Dad? I need to pee.”


Remy groaned as he rolled off his lover. “God,” he muttered, then raised his voice. “I’m coming!Hold on a minute, will you?”
