❝In these dreams it's always you: The boy in the sweatshirt, The boy on the bridge, the boy who always keeps me from jumping off the bridge. Oh, the things we invent when we are scared and want to be rescued. Your jeep. Your teeth. The coffee that you bought me.❞ -I Had A Dream About You, Richard Siken Twenty-four-year old Eli Forbes isn't sure where he's headed after college graduation. He might know that he's getting a degree in Exercise Physiology in the spring, but fuck if he knows what he's going to do with it. For now, he's content with spending his winter break helping at his aunt and uncle's coffee shop. Sebastian Steine, a quirky wayward spirit, is double majoring in comparative literature and theater at Berkeley University. As all around him his friends begin to settle down, get married, and start families of their own, it becomes clear to Sebastian that he still doesn't have a clue as to what he's doing with himself. He's a floater and that's not as pleasing as it used to be. When the two meet at Forbes Family Coffeehouse, they begin to realize they have a whole lot more in common than just their favorite order of a simple black coffee.

Dylan Tate, a San Francisco native, was perfectly fine with living a carefree lifestyle free from any major responsibilities. One particular day life smacks her upside the head with a greater responsibility than she could have ever bargained for. Will she fail at becoming a grown up or can she rise to the occasion? Layne Bishop, on the other hand, was quite familiar and comfortable with responsibility. She was also already a grown up, something she had to achieve sooner than would usually be necessary. Layne yearned for commitment, love and family -- none of which she had in NYC. Could a trip across the country deliver better fortune? ***Note: I hope you'll give it a chance, but you may not want to read this if intimacy between those belonging to the same gender is not your cup of tea :-) If you do choose to read on, if you'd be so kind please share your thoughts with me.
