Sullivan's Yard — Chris Quinton

Cal Beaufontaine, son of a Creole restaurateur and a recent graduate from culinary school, is starting his career as an apprentice chef in Modesto, California. His newly renovated apartment borders a derelict peach farm, Sullivan's Yard, and the lingering scent of peaches inspires dreams of making love to a sexy but faceless man in his backyard beneath a peach tree in full bloom. On his first day at the Alhambra, a top restaurant in the city, Cal encopnters Luis, the owner's nephew and one-night stand expert. Luis begins a determined seduction campaign, but while Cal is immediately attracted he has no intention of becoming a notch on Luis's bedpost. Yet his driving ambition to learn all he can and run his own restaurant could be knocked off-track by his growing desire for the Spaniard.
