After over a year together, Connor Morrison and Wes Martin decide to tie the knot. But an ethics complaint regarding their deeply non-traditional relationship threatens Connor's job and Wes's Ph.D. The fact that Connor tried to keep it from Wes -- even with the best of intentions -- makes the situation even worse and casts a pall over their plans for a Christmas wedding in New York.
It doesn't help that Connor still treats Wes like glass, though Wes insists he's recovered from the brutal assault he suffered a year and a half earlier. Wes may be okay, but Connor isn't. Memories of taking a battered, terrified Wes to the emergency room that night still haunt him, and he can't let go of the need to protect Wes from any and everything life might throw at him.
But Wes has had enough. Between the specter of the ethics complaint and Connor's overprotectiveness, he's already beginning to question their plans. Add in a family ashamed of and angered by his choices, and Wes might just leave Connor standing at the altar.
