When Lou meets Staff Sergeant Stephanie "Steve" Adams through one of her Kung Fu students, Lou can't resist her instant attraction, even though Steve's military background stirs old resentments. As Steve battles to break down the walls around Lou's heart, Lou must come to terms with her past to give love a fighting chance.

Graduate student Rachel Cole is feeling the weekend blues and heads to her favorite lesbian hangout, looking for Ms. Right Now. She is immediately attracted to a brown-haired, brown-eyed, flannel-wearing soulful singer named Bobby Layton. But when Bobby introduces himself to Rachel, Rachel questions things about herself—things like her own sexuality and her very identity. Could she be falling for this sweet boy? Bobby Layton lost a lot when he came out as trans. And he's sworn off dating lesbians because dealing with hate from the straight world is hard enough. Who needs the drama? But something about wild girl Rachel Cole keeps him coming back. Love may be enough to take them to unexpected places beyond their expectations.
