Summary
“So what? He did some cool movies back in the ‘90s. He had torrid love affairs with some idiot actors. What’s the big deal?”
Stede had never felt so indignant yet so embarrassed at the same time. He could feel the tips of his ears going absolutely crimson. “Lucius, are you even seeing this man?”
Stede couldn’t bring himself to explain to Lucius the way he’d fawned over Ed Teach’s ridiculous biceps and doe eyes and luscious beard for literal decades at this point, much less the fact that he’d dreamed of being able to style Ed Teach’s hair since cosmetology school. Sure, the dream sometimes spiraled into a more . . . unsavory realm, but it was a dream, nonetheless.
***
Since his loveless marriage and, thankfully, amicable divorce, Stede has run a high-end salon in LA. But when his celebrity crush of twenty years, Ed Teach, books an appointment, Stede practically doesn't even know how to function. It only gets worse when Ed seems to be reciprocating Stede's feelings. Soon, Stede finds himself in a world of overly aggressive assistants, searching paparazzi, and, at the end of it all, hopefully, a happy relationship (finally).
