After spending high school in the closet, the last thing Jett Walker wants is to go to his thirty year class reunion. Then the one person he was never able to resist decides to attend -- punk rocker Trev Chambers. Trev was the epitome of everything Jett wanted to be, and now he’s reuniting the band he made famous for a final blowout concert. Though nobody back home knows he’s gay, Jett decides to go. He needs closure. One weekend of pretending he’s straight is more than worth it. When he discovers Trev lives less than two hours away, Jett seeks him out on a whim. The punk rocker has grown up, but as far as Jett’s concerned, Trev is more appealing than ever. He’s also available. One brief conversation turns into a date, which raises the question ... are they just living in nostalgia, or can they find a way to build a real future together?

Flesh and Kisses

With a sigh, the clerk reached for the phone. “What’s your name?”


Jett tracked the movement, waiting for him to punch in a number, but the clerk’s fingers hovered over the keypad. “Jett Walker. Are you calling him now?” The butterflies returned. Shit, what if Trev wanted to talk to him? Worse, what if he told his employee he’d never heard of the psycho claiming to be a fellow classmate?


Instead of responding, the clerk punched a three-digit number and turned his back on Jett. Jett had to strain to hear him when he began speaking. “Hey, I got a guy out here I think maybe you need to come and deal with…Not a customer, no. He came in asking for you…I tried that, but he says he knew you in high school. He knew about the gig, so I’m thinking it might be legit. I got his name if…Okay. Sure, sure, I’ll tell him.”


The clerk hung up, but before he faced Jett completely, Jett said, “He’s here? Why didn’t you just say so?”
