He's spent years fantasizing about the woman who will be his mate, but what he gets instead is a straight guy named Jesse who apparently wants nothing to do with him. All Paul wants is a chance…if he can get over his own gay crisis first. Jesse's thought about experimenting once or twice--hasn't everyone?--but that's it. The last thing Jesse needs is for Alpha Kappa Tau's newest pledge to upset his carefully constructed web of denial, or for his position as Pledgemaster to throw them together at every turn. All he wants to do is keep running until life gets back to normal...if it ever does. But maybe, just maybe, normal sucks. And maybe, just maybe, he likes Paul more than he's willing to admit. less

Paul and Jesse don't talk about being soulmates. Instead, they have an arrangement: no-strings sex, for as long as they can handle it. Problem is, Paul's a little too good at pretending he's fine, and Jesse can't pretend at all. The lies they tell themselves--it's an experiment, or a way to get to know each other better--can't possibly last in the face of an even bigger problem: how the hell are they supposed to keep their relationship secret from everyone else?
