Hugo Romero is stuck in St. Louis because of the blizzard. His hotel room is given away, but as a regular customer, he’s compensated with the presidential suite. He isn’t excited about his stay at the hotel, though. The blizzard may last for days. He knows he’ll be bored. Javier Gisbert can’t leave St. Louis but, unfortunately, he can’t get a room anywhere. Every hotel in the city is full. When Hugo offers to share his room with Javier, he’s surprised to learn they’ve both flown in from San Francisco on the same flight earlier that day. He’s even more astounded by their lust-filled attraction toward each other. They quickly become better acquainted ... both in and out of bed. Then the storm ends and the two men return to San Francisco. Can they sustain their relationship? Or is their passion nothing more than the heat of the moment?

A Blessing in Disguise

Hugo chuckled. “Fuck no! Once is more than enough. I’m now living in a house in the historic district.”


Hugo shrugged. “It used to be a church.”


Javier chortled. “You’re kidding me!”


“Nope. It’s a Gothic Revival style building. I had bought it a couple of years ago because I’m in love with the living room.”


Javier was taken aback by the specificity. “What’s so unique about the living room?”


“It has hand-painted ceilings and seven chandeliers.”
