From a tiny acorn grows a mighty oak, so it is with love. Undaunted by rain, snow, thunder and lighting, and even a tornado, Goose and Patrick weathered many storms from first meeting to marriage. By their side through it all, Jefferson and Calvin shared their own love story as Goose and Patrick’s guides through the present and the past and their guardian angels in Heaven and on Earth. Contains the stories: Ghost Writer: Goose is finally allowing himself to feel something again, something like love. He and Jefferson have both been through a lot, war and escaping their abusive exes. There are two problems, though. Jefferson belongs to someone else, and he’s a ghost. While Goose tries to save a tree planted by Jefferson’s lover over a hundred years ago, Jefferson tries to heal Goose’s heart, broken far too long. Snowed In: Goose and Patrick: Four men, two in this realm and two in another, fight all sorts of obstacles, including war, separation, family dysfunction, racial prejudice, homophobia, and their own inner demons to fall in love and explore or recapture their sexuality. Each pair, from this century and one in the past, help the other along the way. Nine Minutes in Heaven: Goose’s lover Patrick ends up on one side of the light, with Jefferson and Calvin. Goose’s family and his dog, Wilbur, are on this side. When Goose is seriously injured and faced with a choice between Heaven and Earth, he finds the decision impossible to make, which could result in him being stuck somewhere in between. Ghosts of Honor: Goose and Patrick have weathered many storms, literally, a massive blizzard and figuratively, death. Will a tornado on their wedding day, a group of ghostly crashers, Goose’s distraction, and Patrick’s lingering emotional pain after the attack be too much to make it through this time?

Weathering the Storms Box Set

We were up front, so I could grab some snacks from the display at register four, dangerously close to the camera above the front door. “I’ll clean any ass prints before we open day after tomorrow. Well, tomorrow. I guess it’s today by now.”


“Still, I’ll keep back there covered.”


“As you wish. Stay there. I’m gonna get us some candy. And…I’m gonna do it without being recorded. The snow angel thing might embarrass me slightly. If my towel were to fall off while I was reaching for Goobers, I don’t think I could come back from that.”


I did a Matrix move to get past the end of the checkout lane, even though no one would likely be looking at security footage for at least another twenty-four hours, which meant it wouldn’t be there. “Snickers or Milky Way? Hell,” I didn’t wait for an answer, “one of each, and a few more for good measure. We’ll need the energy. Back the way we came.”


“Grab my satchel, first, will you?”


Patrick looked up. “I can’t even see them.”
