Alphabet Pasta

Sequel to The Nutcracker

P is for Penne Alla Vodka and Garth Morgan and Tony Luciano are determined not to let the horrors of the Pulse nightclub shootings prevent them from celebrating their eighteen-month anniversary with the next dish on their A-Z list of pasta dishes. Garth knows he'll be eating ziti on his wedding day, but before then he has one other important question to ask Tony, one that affects not just his life but also that of Adam, Garth's ten-year-old son. 

Will dessert be as sweet as Garth hopes, or will Tony's answer leave a bad taste in his mouth?
