Sunday, April 30, 1:00PM
Join local author Alodia Thaliel as she signs copies of her recent release Peaches and Cream!
Rhode and Constantine have a relationship that most people would hesitate to define, though neither of the men ever felt the need to put a label on it. They were Con the football player, and Rhode the CEO, and they were always together. The rest was too annoying to deal with. Why did it matter what they were?
But when they meet Dani, all of that changes. With her, labels start to mean a lot. They become Daddy, Master, and their shared little. Together they navigate the waters of their polycule, their families, the press, and the judgment of a world that insists they know better than them.
