Full version of Second Edition available on Amazon and via Kindle Unlimited. Chris Sinclair fades under a dark cloud after losing his mother to cancer. On the cusp of adulthood, he doesn't know where he should go or how to get there. But watching life pass him by was never the plan, and when he is forced to attend a concert in an attempt to coax him out of his shell, he discovers that life might have more to offer. Dante Heron holds the audience between his delicate bow and the tips of his fingers. He plays the violin as if every heart is his to command, but the discipline needed to perfect his skills has left him with nothing to spare. He's a fire that burns too bright or not at all-unpredictable and demanding. When Chris is unexpectedly offered a job to travel around Europe as Dante's assistant, or 'friend', he surprises himself by accepting. Their journey barely starts before Chris realizes he's in over his head. Every step along the way is fraught with tension, and the farther they go, the closer they veer to a breaking point. Invisible strings are at play, stitched into Dante's life by those who should have taught him how to love. Perhaps Chris is right to be afraid, but sometimes, what you fear the most is what you can't afford to lose.

Taking care of a robot baby was something Cole expected when he signed up for the Parenting class his school offered. What he didn't expect was being partnered up with another guy. And that's not the worst of it. This guy? Yeah, it's the same guy who he might have had a fling with during the summer. The same guy who never called him back after "the incident." The same guy who he spilled his guts to in a drunken haze. He can't wait to get this project over with, but partnering up with someone who knows everything about you and still rejected you is a lot harder than one might think. On top of all this, a few unforeseeable situations pop up at the most inconvenient of times. Will the stress make Cole crack? Can the boys get over what happened in the past to get the grade? Or will they end up being the worst baby daddies in the history of parenting?
