Rainbows and Lollipops
THREE FRIENDS. ONE UNFORGETTABLE SUMMER.
When Jake met Tom, he thought he'd left Birmingham's gay bars behind forever-until a twist of fate lands him back in his childhood bedroom, sleeping under glow-in-the-dark stars.
Vicky, an ambitious lawyer and lifelong loner, has her life meticulously planned-until threats emerge that no power suit or clever argument can fix.
Lucy has planned every detail of her wedding down to the perfect petals-but "happily ever after" comes with a question mark.
