An Italian Affair:
Business was good at the firm where Ken worked.  It was so good, in fact, that the company had opened a branch in Italy, and Ken had been assigned the job of mentoring the new manager of the Italian interests.  Roberto was a good fit for the company, and Ken soon began to look forward to his weeklong trips to Italy.  When in Italy, Ken felt very exotic and wanted to do exotic things, and Roberto is all too eager to lead the way.

Alone With Jay:
Kevin meets Jay by chance or perhaps by fate, one night when Jay comes back to his apartment after being out with a friend.  Jay is older than Kevin and much more experienced.  Kevin has not experienced lovemaking the way he knows he would with Jay, given the opportunity.

And Now Us:
Time spent with Mike had become Drew's salvation from a life which he had been blackmailed into accepting.  This year, during their winter trip, Drew knew that if he were going to confide in his best friend the truth about his marriage and his true feelings, it was now or never.

Craving Julian:
Julian and Rick have been together for awhile now and are happy, but Rick is gone much of the time on business trips.  Julian trusts Rick, but Julian is not to be trusted.  Julian loves sex, and cannot wait for Rick to return when his sexual cravings must be satisfied.

I Choose Us:
Jason was surprised to hear that Daniel's life was less than ideal.  Inviting Daniel to his cabin for a weekend, Jason learns of Daniel's troubled life and also learns much more about himself.

In The Wings:
In the four years that they had been apart, Dan's and Gannon's friendship had not waned.  Reunited by either chance or fate, it seemed as though the more things changed, the more they had remained the same.  The yearly medical convention quickly proves them wrong, however.  Things had changed, and they had changed a lot.
