All That Jazz

Sometimes love comes knocking when you least expect it. Will Gideon finally open the door and embrace love? Or will he hide from it and from his heart? Gideon Kaufman is well aware that his promotion has had ripple effects that he must manage as diplomatically as possible. He has learned how to put on a good show in public, and no one suspects that he is lonely and bored. No one, that is, until Jasper "Jazz" Mannix, the out-and-proud gay student, shakes up Gideon's guarded world. Gideon is unprepared for the tornado that is Jazz-tall, proud and unafraid. Jasper's furious youth and raw sexuality threaten everything Gideon needs to preserve. So he resists the elemental draw of the much younger man and struggles to repress his needs. No one looking at Jasper "Jazz" Mannix would ever guess the horrors he has had to live through to get to where he is. He earns enough money than many of his peers. He is, however, determined to show everyone that he is more than just a pretty face and more than his awful past. Can Gideon finally learn to open up and allow someone into his private life? How will Jazz handle discovering that what he ultimately wants may have nothing to do with studying with Gideon, and everything to do with being with him forever?
