This book is an homage to eight lovers, gay lovers in eight different stories. Sometimes Love is not one on one but rather one on several for Love can fail to focus on its object and loses sight of... More > the loved one in the course of events. Sometimes love is a triangle or a quadrangle, and God forbid, an octagon. Love, one on one, is hard enough for us mortal beings.

Join our lovers in these eight episodes and enjoy the fruits of their Pyrrhic victories.< Less
