Fox McHardy leads a charmed life. Puget Sound penthouse, gorgeous
boyfriend, jet-setting job -- everything he's ever wanted, he's
gotten, including the heck out of the small Iowa town he grew up
in. Even the trip he takes to Miami to surprise his boyfriend
Jeremy is something of a long-shot wish fulfilled.
Until he arrives in South Florida.
Once things start to unravel, they do so with alarming speed, and
he finds himself riding shotgun in a rented convertible with his
new sworn enemy faster than he can say, "I want my old life back."
During an unscheduled stop on the cross-country road trip From
Hell, Fox passes up a perfectly good opportunity to keep his mouth
shut and finds himself planning the town's first legal gay wedding
-- his own, to a man he's pretty sure he should hate. But someone
needs to set a positive example for the queer and questioning youth
in this corner of Middle America and, after creatively arranging
certain of the facts of his life more attractively, he is proud to
offer himself up as a role model.
Small Town, USA, steps up; the grooms are widely celebrated, and
generous offers of food, flowers, and picture-perfect venues pour
in. The only real challenge will be keeping the lies straight and
the truth under wraps until they can get out of town.
Beijing, Tokyo, Sydney -- these exciting cities are standard fare
in the life of flight attendant Todd Eisenbraun, and he chases a
romance with sexy-but-straight Josh through them all.
Closer to home, a new neighbor in his San Francisco apartment
building has a huge crush on Todd. His friends -- Katie, a flight
attendant-turned-small appliance repairwoman, and Marzipan Q.
Thespian, a man-dangling local philanthropist -- think Todd should
at least give Chris a shot. Sure, he's overweight, but he's also
handsome, a hilarious playwright, and a great cook ... what's not
to love?
Todd and Chris become quick friends, but Todd's idea of the
perfect man is skinny and straight, and Chris is decidedly neither.
Josh may have a fiancee and a teenaged son, but Todd just knows
he's "the One."
But if Josh is straight, the road to love is not. Todd is
bombarded by his own internalized homophobia, body image issues,
exotic locales, the glamorous world of sewing machine repair, and a
community theater musical salute to the life of Judy Garland. When
will he realize he's looking way too hard for something he may have
already found?
