Brian and Roger are newly wed and living their best life together. After championing the cause of civil unions for homosexuals in England, they have settled quickly into marital bliss. Now they are shifting their sights towards becoming parents. With their best friends, Freddie and Deacy, already parents; the fight to have a child takes on new energy. Brian and Roger prepare to campaign for the privilege. They also balance this with Roger's sister and niece, Clare and Emma, moving to London to start over. Come along as we see what happens with our favorite 80's couples and see what other kinds of happiness they find in their lives.

Brian May led a simple but somewhat lonely life. He thought it was enough to own a record store and to dabble in his side interests. Photography, star gazing and writing songs and being with his close friends. His success in the dating world had hit an all time low and he had thrown in the towel. Little did he know his life was about to get turned upside down. When a famous music group is in town for some shows he has an unlikely encounter that not only shifts his future but literally and figuratively rocks his world. Roger Taylor is a bored and burned out rock star looking for something more meaningful in his life than one night stands both on the stage and in his bed. He meets someone who makes him question his future and his true desires. Will Roger risk everything to have something deeper than a top 40 single? Will Roger find what has truly evaded him for ages? Happiness.... This is a side trip from the traditional format for Maylor and takes place in an alternate universe away from Queen. I have borrowed some things from their real lives to enhance the story and give it some familiarity. I have not placed a time stamp on this story as my world contains music from the 70s, 80s and beyond. MTV exists in the way that it did in the 1980s. Each chapter title will be a song and will be accompanied by a video of that track to listen to before or during reading. I hope you like my fresh take on our favorite couple! There is mature content so reader beware!

At a press conference given by Queen to an Australian reporter in 1976, Brian reveals that he and Roger had stolen away together for a brief beach holiday. While it seems innocent enough to the reporter and their fellow bandmates, there is a brief moment where it seems like it was more than just some down time at the beach. Just what did happen for those few days Brian and Roger were alone and in need of some relaxation. Are you curious? Were they? This is a story told in 3 parts. Enjoy this little 'what if?'
