  Christopher Worthington thought pushing his friend Alex Breschi at his former Dom would be a good way to introduce Alex to the BDSM lifestyle he was involved in, as well as create another barrier in his heart between himself and the man he had been half in love with for years, Mahiro Seta. But when Chris sees how much Alex and Mahiro have fallen for each other at a play party, he realizes any chance he ever had at a relationship with Mahiro was dead forever.
  Into his maudlin thoughts walks Adam Wa, Mahiro's best friend and roommate, and someone Chris has known for years, but had never quite gotten to know. Adam seems to know just what Chris is longing for, perhaps because Adam has been longing for Chris himself.
  Ever wondered what happened to Adam and Chris after the party in Florentine? Here's your answer.

  Martin and Gethin hit it off. Will their mutual baggage prove too much to sustain a relationship?

  Washed and Waiting - Reflections...

  This is a book written primarily for gay Christians and those who love them.  Part memoir, part pastoral-theological reflection, this book wrestles with three main areas of struggle that many gay Christians face: (1) What is God’s will for sexuality? (2) If the historic Christian tradition is right and same-sex behavior is ruled out, how should gay Christians deal with their resulting loneliness?  (3) How can gay Christians come to an experience of grace that rescues them from crippling feelings of shame and guilt?Author Wesley Hill is not advocating that it is possible for every gay Christian to become straight,  nor is he saying that God affirms homosexuality.   Instead, Hill comes alongside gay Christians and says, “You are not alone.  Here is my experience; it’s like yours.  And God is with us.  We can share in God’s grace.”  While some authors profess a deep faith in Christ and claim a powerful experience of the Holy Spirit precisely in and through their homosexual practice, Hill’s own story, by contrast, is a story of feeling spiritually hindered, rather than helped, by his homosexuality.   His story testifies that homosexuality was not God’s original creative intention for humanity—that it is, on the contrary, a tragic sign of human nature and relationships being fractured by sin—and therefore that homosexual practice goes against God’s express will for all human beings, especially those who trust in Christ. This book is written mainly for those homosexual Christians who are trying to walk the narrow path of celibacy and are convinced that their discipleship to Jesus necessarily commits them to the demanding, costly obedience of choosing not to nurture their homosexual desires.  With reflections from the lives of Henri Nouwen and Gerard Manley Hopkins, Wesley Hill encourages and challenges Christians with homosexual desires to live faithful to God’s plan for human sexuality.

  Spirit Deaconson has always lived between two worlds. He is gay and he is Christian. In a congregation where prayer chains spread faster than gossip and every church lady thinks she is a matchmaking prophet, Spirit has learned to survive with equal parts humor and grace. But when Evan, the new worship guitarist with a smile that should be illegal, steps into his life, Spirit's carefully balanced routine spirals into glorious chaos. Coffee shop interrogations, youth group disasters, and a runaway rumor about a fiancée he definitely does not have push him deeper into the kind of trouble only church folk can create.
  As the whispers grow louder and the accidental courtship gets harder to deny, Spirit is forced to confront what he truly wants and whether faith and love can finally coexist in the same pew. Can Spirit trust that his heart has a place in the life he has built, or will the truth he has been avoiding turn everything upside down?
  When the whole congregation has decided this is a love story, will Spirit Deaconson find the courage to make it real?
