Chance has an unexpected attraction to his neighbors—a gay couple—and this unconventional relationship could end Chance’s career and family relationships.
Chance Findley is a successful marketing executive until his career is jeopardized by a disastrous presentation to a Chamber of Commerce member. During a mandated recuperative break, Chance’s suppressed same-sex attraction reawakens when he bonds with his new neighbor, Arlo, despite Arlo having a physician partner named Charlie and a surprising job as a cam performer. Chance secretly subscribes to Arlo’s fan page. Guilty about his invasion of Arlo’s privacy, Chance avoids his neighbor until an acute medical problem brings Arlo and his doctor boyfriend—the same Chamber of Commerce member who hated Chance’s presentation—to his doorstep. An attraction grows between the three men.
But when Charlie’s attempt to mend Chance’s relationship with his boss backfires due to a potential conflict of interest, and Chance’s parents learn of his relationship with Arlo and Charlie, Chance finds himself out of a job, at odds with his family and struggling with Arlo and Charlie. Will the three of them be able to find a happily-ever-after, despite everything that stands in their way?

Chance bit his lower lip. “God, I am rambling, aren’t I? I’m sorry, I get that way when I’ve had too much. Friends always tell me that my mouth goes running and so do my inhibitions. It’s a great combination for making a fool of myself.”
Arlo’s eyebrows raised. “You lose your inhibitions? Hmm. Can I get you more wine?”
If you enjoyed the first two books in this series I'm sure that you will love this one. Chance is in a vulnerable state with his employer and at the same time he is moving house. He meets Arlo, one of his new neighbours, and is very soon enchanted by this delightful, charming and open young man. He begins to quietly question his sexuality and when he meets Arlo's partner Charlie he is drawn by their loving relationship and is attracted to it. When he is invited to become part of the relationship he has many questions and much to learn sexually. There were a multitude of problems on the way but I was totally intrigued by the development of this grouping; can Chance be fulfilled by his new life life with Arlo and Charlie? I greatly recommend this book.
Although this book is part of the "All on the Line" series, the only common thread is the theme - a man risking everything for love. Each book can be read as a stand-alone novel.
