When restaurateur Hugh Neumann rebukes Oliver Nicholas’s very public proposal to his boyfriend during a Valentine’s Day dinner, the diverted Cupid’s arrow strikes Hugh not in the heart, but in the ass.
After a media storm of commentary, ironically pro and con, gains national steam, what Hugh begins to refer to as his personal “St. Valentine’s Day m******e” begins to affect home life with his partner, Dominick Brodie.
Was Hugh’s overreaction pandering to his largely heterosexual clientele? Or did the incident trigger his own panic about same-s*x marriage? Will the public scrutiny threaten his decade-long commitment to Dom?
Prologue
Should you have previously read about “the Valentine’s Day incident,” I’d be spared a ton of exposition and exclamation marks and could just cut to the chase.
Even if you haven’t, you’ve undoubtedly read about a similar “incident”—the quote marks were the media’s, not mine—involving some bigot.
Everyone had a strong opinion about the “incident.”
This probably included you. No mea culpa will change that.
But I’ve gotten ahead of myself, which my husband, Dom, reminds me I’m wont to do, especially when it comes to the night of February 14.
