Overview
Jordon Dexter is a screenwriter in a troubled marriage with a transitioning and uncertain writing career. He has a darling trans son, that his wife is dubious about accepting. As she struggles to accept the boy's gender identity, Jordon and his wife's lives are filled with hate-filled screaming sessions until Jordon learns some unsavory facts about his wife, and she reveals that she knows some unsavory facts about him. It appears there is no way for them to find peace except through an uncomfortable divorce. Meanwhile, Jordon's birth family has a struggling vineyard north of Santa Barbara, and his sister calls him and insists he come home to deal with a family crisis with his father in the hospital. As he struggles with his own crumbling family, it's difficult to see how he can get away. But his own secrets have been begging to be expressed, and he sees that going to his family home may be a way to escape, at least temporarily, from the stress of his Los Angeles life. Finally, it is clear he must leave, and so he heads homeward. Up in Reno, Nevada, an unconscious John Doe is discovered beaten and dumped in a ditch by the side of a county road. The investigating detective has no clues and no idea how to find out who this guy is, let alone how to solve the crime and catch the perpetrators. The John Doe's fingerprints prove useless in identifying him, and the man remains unidentified for days on end in a coma. But strange are the strands of time as they weave a pattern that eventually brings these two men together. Then they must unravel the mystery of their past and begin to discover the surprising connections that exist between them that had almost been forgotten. Please Note: This book contains Adult Language & Steamy Adult Activities, it is intended for 18+ Adults Only. Novel, approx. 70,000 words in length. HEA (happy ever after ending).
