[Formerly: Tight Bonds] Aiden is an accomplished nurse. Being a rock to his friends and life companion, John, comes naturally to him. His ability to cope is challenged when John gets into an accident with serious consequences. John has always struggled with what he is, and what he's supposed to be. After a lifetime of trying to escape his own skin, he finds that becoming someone else might be easier than he thought, but not quite what he expected. In comes Max, a cocky young man, ready to build a life of his own, no strings attached. As he gets to know Aiden, he finds out that some strings might not be that bad after all. (Fanquinine thinks she's a writer. Yet she sucks at BLURBS.)
