A one-night stand with a guy in an open relationship introduces a whole new world to lonely college student Luke. When the pressures that left him isolated threaten to destroy his newfound happiness, can brilliant but damaged Nick and compassionate, insecure Evan keep him safe? Luke's parents, clouded by grief, isolated him and his siblings. Fortunately he's gotten away and has found intellectual fulfillment and a promising future in college. When he gets lonely, he can find an outlet for his physical needs in hookup apps. One of those hookups -- with gorgeous, kind graduate student Evan -- opens Luke's eyes to a world he hadn't been sure existed. Evan is in an open relationship with law professor, political strategist, and professional pundit Nick. They love each other, but each is drawn to Luke for his own reasons. Luke agrees to try something new, aglow with the possibility of finding both success and happiness. Not everyone is thrilled with Luke's choices. Some people from Luke's past don't like the thought of him being in a polyamorous relationship. They don't trust either of Luke's boyfriends, who come from very different backgrounds than Luke. And no one, not even they, know how far they'll go to get Luke back on track. Can Luke, Evan, and Nick find their happily ever after together?

“That was incredible.” Evan smiled happily at them. “Thank you for that. I’m going to go…um, clean up now.”


Nick chuckled. “I’m going to get us cleaned up. We’ll see you tomorrow, okay, love?”


“I do believe I’m owed dinner.” Evan winked at him and shut the connection.


Luke managed to rouse himself enough to follow Nick into the shower. Once they’d cleaned up, they headed back into the bedroom. Nick got ready for bed, while Luke hesitated near his clothes. “I should get home.”


“You should stay here.” Nick didn’t hesitate. He didn’t want to spend the night alone, not after that. And frankly, he didn’t think Luke should either.


Luke only hesitated for a moment before crawling into bed beside him.10
