    Summary

    “I love you, too. Maybe it was always written for us. Not to be too mushy but…"

    “Go on.”

    “I dunno. Maybe we’re just meant to be.”

    Stede beams, tipping up to kiss Ed again and again and again.

    “You can be mushy.” Stede says. “I like it when you’re mushy.”

    -*-

    Stede considers the idea of soulmates.

    Summary

    It’s the summer of 1959, and classics professor Stede Bonnet is determined to become a new man. He’s made two monumental changes so far: he’s resigned his position at the University of Chicago, where he has taught for his entire career, and he’s left his wife Mary, to whom he has been married for nine years. Now he’s off to the only place in the United States where you can get a no-fault divorce: the deserts of Nevada. He’s checking in to a so-called Divorce Ranch just outside of Reno, where he’ll spend the requisite six weeks establishing residency. After that, it’s off to California to assume his new teaching position and his new life.

    It's the summer of 1959. Ed Teach has been living in Reno since he was a teenager. He's a radio DJ, an artist, a handyman and a fixture of the community, particularly popular in the underground gay nightlife scene that is still recovering from the brutal vice raids of the McCarthy era.
