    Summary

    Stede, a history professor specializing in the golden age of piracy, is fascinated when art professor Edward Teach joins his humble university’s faculty. Even more fascinating are the rumors that Ed is actually the famous, anonymous artist, Blackbeard. Stede falls a little bit in love. Then a lot.

    Across the academic year, Stede tips headfirst into dizzying romance, mind-blowing sex, and happiness he couldn't have dreamed up if he'd tried. He learns lessons he never knew he needed, forcing him to reevaluate everything from his career goals to his relationships with his children. Ed is at the center of it all, teaching Stede at every turn exactly how wonderful life can be—and the startling speed with which fear and hesitation could snatch away his newfound love.

    Eventually, the only thing that matters for them both is learning enough about love to stop it from slipping through their fingers.

    Summary

    When Ed gets stuck behind the same slow driver for a long stretch of his road trip through the Pacific Northwest, that's one thing. When he finds himself at the same rest stop as the offending driver, it's quite another.

    This Stede guy is a bit of a lunatic. But when Ed crosses paths with him again several days later, this time stranded on the side of the highway and in need of some assistance, Ed winds up on a slightly different road trip than the one he'd planned to take—with a man he absolutely doesn't plan to fall in love with.

    Clearly, plans change.

    Summary

    "Why didn't you stop him?!" Margaret's tone is so frantic that BJ almost has trouble understanding her.

     

    "What?"

     

    "Why didn't you stop h-"

     

    "Margaret, I got that the first time, but I don't understand what you're-"

     

    "Hawkeye," Margaret snaps down the line, and a sickening feeling of foreboding washes over BJ.

    Summary

    "Peg, honey, it's not like that." Or maybe it is. BJ, the truth, and the layering of lies over decades.
