In "Tabloid Star", which is a very good tale, by the way, we got to witness the romance of Josh and Ryan. Ryan an up-and-coming mega action film star, and Josh a beefy burly bartender at a hot local club. By the end, the two men committed to each other as a couple. In this tale, the story picks up with their wedding.The story is not as compelling as Tabloid Star, but that's not really a problem. You see, the drama was laid out in Tabloid Star, and it's there that the traditional romance unveils. This shorter tale is for fans of the original story who want to see what life has in store for our two heroes. There love is not in question, so there's no conflict there. If anything, this story serves as a sort of extended epilogue. It toggles back and forth between the wedding itself and the events leading up to it after Tabloid Star.It's short, it's sweet, and it's priced accordingly. It lacks the conflict and drama of a romance story because, well, it's not. But it still easily fulfills its original intent of closing out the original tale and letting fans of those two characters have a taste of them again. Tabloid Star was the cake, and With This Ring is the scoop of ice cream on the side.
