title: Building Arcadia
author: Loveless, Ryan
description: People mistake best friends Connor Adams and Sam Henning for a couple all the time. Sam is gay; Connor is straight and married. They laugh it off. But it's no joke when three armed homophobic thugs make that same mistake. Seconds later, one of the attackers lies dead. Evidence points at Connor, but he can't remember touching a gun. Nor can he rely on Sam to clear him. The thugs put Sam in a coma. The attack's repercussions upend the lives of not only Sam and Connor, but also Connor's wife, Kelly. The three come to rely on each other like never before, and repressed emotion finds its outlet in heated passion. Can they turn that passion into real love when their lives are falling apart?
