Who doesn't love a wedding? The three stories in Going to the Chapel prove that everyone has a special day. In Don't Ask by JJ Massa, Captain Zachary Smith has always wanted to find out what boils behind Agent Falk Thayer's calm exterior. Falk, on the other hand, isn't looking for anything long-term. Never has. Never will. When things get hot and heavy between them, Captain Smith has to decide if he's willing to take less than what he needs or sacrifice everything. In Building a Life by Alexa Snow, when Levi goes to his best friend Cooper's engagement party, he doesn't expect to meet someone fascinating -- and he definitely doesn't expect that someone to be Cooper's five-year-old niece Ashley. It comes as an even bigger surprise to find that Ashley's father Philip is both fascinating and hot. But Philip is married, even if his wife is mysteriously out of the picture, so this ready-made family can't possibly have room in it for Levi... or can it? Finally, in Apples and Gin by Jenna Jones, country singer Sawyer Shaw loves photographer Noah Kingston and is tired of hiding it. He's kept his sexuality hidden for the sake of his career and his family, but over the past ten years Sawyer has come to realize what matters most to him is Noah and his happiness, and Sawyer is ready not only to make it public but also to make it permanent.

That's just what Tom does, at least until a whole different reason for Adam's bruises begins to appear. Tom is starting to worry that Adam is crazy when Adam confesses the truth. Then Tom knows Adam is out of his mind, because there's no way that a ghost can be behind all of the marks on Adam's skin.

Tom is determined to help Adam any way he can, but even love may not be enough to reach beyond the grave.
