Lieutenant Brenden Fitzpatrick is a dedicated Marine, loyal
son, and devoted uncle, but he's lonely. When he went
Marine, the rule was don't ask, don't tell. His
brothers-in-arms pretty much didn't ask and didn't care.
Watching so many friends settle into long-term relationships
highlighted the absence of someone to come home to in his
life. When his unit encourages him to give the 1Night Stand
service a try, he asks for the impossible—a night with the
one man he almost gave up the Marines for in the first
place. A man he called best friend but let time and distance
carry away.
Liam Gardiner grew up on the same Boston block as his best
friend, Brenden. Unlike Brenden, Liam always accepted that
he was gay—a fact he didn't mind flaunting to all the
bullies and naysayers in school. It got his ass kicked more
than once, but Brenden always had his back, rescuing him
time and time again, until the day Brenden left for the
Marines. He missed his buddy—the crush he never confessed,
lest it cost him the precious friendship—so when Madame
Eve's invitation to meet Brenden arrived, Liam faces
uncertainty for the first time.
Life made them best friends, can Madame Eve help them become
so much more?
