  As the daughter of two gay fathers in the '90s, Chelsea has always had a different outlook than some people. And yet, her message is one of universal importance—love is the most important force in the world. Through her moving and at times hilarious memoir, Chelsea reflects on how we are all much more similar than we are different. 
   
   
   
  Living "two doors down from normal," Chelsea quickly learned that society loves to put people in boxes, but these boxes do not always reflect how we feel about ourselves. Through Inexplicably Me, Chelsea works to bring people together in love and acceptance and to illustrate that, while her story may seem worlds away from others, we all strive for happiness and love. 
   
   
   
  From sharing the stage with President Obama when she was only eighteen years old, to her father spending her senior year of college in federal prison camp, to her biological mother dying of cancer when she was only fifty-six, Chelsea explores her painful and joyful experiences with the hope that listeners will find inspiration to face their own challenges and embrace their own joys.

  Can a future be built from pieces of a broken past? Jordan Barnett is dead, killed as much by the rejection of his first love at his moment of greatest need as by his ultraconservative parents' effort to deprogram the gay away. In his place is Silver, a streetwise survivor who's spent the last three years becoming untouchable… except to those willing to pay for the privilege. He's determined not to let betrayal find him again, and that means never forging bonds that can be broken. No matter how hard he tried, Zebadiah Harris couldn't outrun his guilt over abandoning his young lover—not even by leaving the country. Now, almost the moment he sets foot back in Baltimore, he discovers Silver on a street corner in a bad part of town. His effort to make amends lands them both in jail, where Silver plans a seductive form of vengeance. But using a heart as a stepping-stone is no way to move past the one man he can't forgive, let alone forget….

  Since humanity's first steps in the Stone Age, Methuselah has harbored an ancient secret. Cursed by the shaman to witness the end of days, he searches in vain for a home, place to place, clan to clan, yearning to belong. First in prehistoric Africa and lately disillusioned with love for a hundred years in the New World, he learns all too well to guard his heart and hide his story. That changes when a car crash lands him in the hospital with a fractured skull. Doctors discover strange stem cells in his blood, promising cures and a fountain of youth. Methuselah faces choices of life and death.
  Forced on the run again, he comforts himself by reliving a happier time, when he and Arrow, his first love, raft across the paleo-lake Makgadikgadi, which rested in those days on the vast Kalahari. In their age-old journey, the cavemen lovers find a place to call home and learn what it means to belong. 
  While Arrow's enlightened sensibilities get the two of them in trouble and challenge Methuselah's judgment, their adventures in an untamed world bring them together. When Methuselah's enduring youth reveals itself through the passing seasons, he and Arrow bravely face a dire reality. 
  From the distant past that lives inside Methuselah, Arrow's spirit reaches out, providing guidance for our threatened times. He gives Methuselah the strength to do the right thing and the courage to live his true self in the modern world. Arrow's memory opens Methuselah's heart and renews for him a hope of redemption in the arms of a caring man today. If only Methuselah permits himself to love once more.

  A Ghost of a Chance

  Professor Rhys Davies doesn’t believe in ghosts—at least not the sheet-rattling, chain-dragging variety. But when research for his book on California hauntings leads him to the crumbling seaside ruins of Berkeley House, skepticism becomes harder to maintain. 
  Especially when the house’s intimidating, tight-lipped caretaker, Sam Devlin, makes it very clear that neither Rhys nor his questions are welcome. 
  Legend claims that over a century ago illusionist David Berkeley died there, cursing the mansion with his restless spirit. Rhys expects dusty archives and local folklore. What he finds instead are secrets, danger, and an attraction to Sam that’s far more unsettling than any haunting. 
  Because some things refuse to stay buried—and not all ghosts are from the past.

  Damn, the tool next door to Lance Baye is superiorly hot. Although the stud's name is Mike Danning, Lance insists on calling him Tool. Probably because he looks hot, big, and dumb. Lance knows Mike is from Phoenix, and is temporarily in Pittsburgh to care for his Uncle Craig.
  
  
  Playing around, Lance decides to borrow tools from his neighbor. A wrench today. A screwdriver tomorrow. A handsaw the day after tomorrow. Soon, Lance has a pile of Tool's tools. And he also has a strong desire for Tool.
  
  
  But just when Lance decides to put the sexual moves on Tool, another neighbor is also interested. Honey Hertzer. Lance backs off -- it seems pathetic and a waste of time to chase a straight tool.
  
  
  Things can change on a dime, though. Lance has a stack of tools that belong to Tool. And Tool needs them back. Will the two men share a hungry and sexual connection, crossing neighborly lines when Tool comes searching for his tools? Does a promising future exist between the pair?
