When Peyton Garner phones her gay firefighter brother, Flex Adams, and ends up talking with one of his fellow firefighters, Trey "Lincoln" Carver, she assumes that her brother has recovered from the devastating breakup of a ten-year relationship and has found a new lover. But Line, who is also an amateur sculptor, is not gay, nor does he know Flex is. So when he meets art agent Peyton in New York to discuss handling his sculpture and they develop a relationship, he neglects to mention that fact to Flex or to tell Peyton that he knows Flex.Things come to a head with funny, satisfying results when the Adams family gathers in the Bay Area for a wedding. This lively comedy of errors is the prelude to more stories about the six Adams siblings. Byrd (If You Dare) has written a number of romances for BET Books under the Arabesque imprint.
