Jess and David work together at an elementary school, and quickly became friends a year or so before when David started at the school.  Jess helped him through a divorce during this time, and we jump into the story just about the time Jess is ready to go out of his mind wanting his "straight" friend, David.  But the story is as much as family as it is about romance.  Jess' family has reached a point where a decision has to be made about whether to let his grandmother continue to live by herself, which acts as a catalyst for lots of family dynamics, issues, etc., to come to the forefront.  Jess' family is made up of rich characters.  While it's a sweet and funny story, it's also a mature story, with the characters learning and growing throughout the book.  My description isn't really doing the book justice, just buy it -- it's a wonderful read.
