Jesus Mendoza is looking to get away from big city life and forget about his cheating ex-boyfriend. So when he has the opportunity to film a local Posada at a progressive church in South Texas, he takes the first ticket out of Chicago and heads to Puntos Del Rey.<br><br>The first thing he notices is the heat, but the second is hunky Frank Villalobos, his guide for the week of the Posada. While Jesus tries to keep things professional, his attraction to Frank is undeniable. As Jesus gets to know the members of the church and their stories, he learns about a culture that has long eluded him. But will he get to learn more about Frank, too?

A South Texas Holiday

“Thanks, you look really hot too.” If my face was red before, it had to be the color of strawberries at this very moment. I looked over at Frank, and much to my surprise, his face was just as red as I pictured mine to be.


“Thank you. I really love it when hot guys think I’m cute.”


Whoa, I thought. Did I hear that right?


“Oh, you’re not just cute. You’re really sexy.”


Frank walked over to me, his smile beaming from ear to ear. “You think so?” He did a little twirl, which was absolutely adorable.


“Oh yeah. I thought so the moment I met you.”


Frank got a bit closer to me. “And I wanted to do this ever since I met you.” Frank leaned in and gave me a nice lingering kiss. I couldn’t believe what was happening. The longer we kissed, the deeper I fell into it. His lips were so soft and supple and felt so good pressed against mine. I had never believed in sparks before, but I just couldn’t deny that something was brewing between us.
