When Ross and Elisa open their new business in Detroit, they believe theyβve embarked on a dream life, complete with their beloved, precocious daughter. But owning and running a restaurant is not for the faint of heart, and Elle quickly becomes laser-focused and obsessed, while Ross spends his days consulting, or concocting new beers on his pilot systemβand wondering why she wonβt agree to set a date for their wedding. When their restaurantβnamed βKomfortβ for its focus on the comfort foods of various culturesβis featured on a nationally televised tour of hot new eateries, its popularity shoots into the stratosphere, and Elleβs stress level reaches a breaking point.
Faced with a mutual inability to communicate beyond their robust sex life, Ross issues an ill-considered ultimatum: the restaurant or him. Stunned when she refuses to consider such a ridiculous demand, heβs forced to come to terms with his own selfish tendencies. Hoping to repair the damage heβs done, he concocts a new beer inspired by her, using a recipe for a classic German-style KΓΆlch. He crafts the final product using a special ingredient designed to catch Elleβs attention. It does. But not necessarily the way heβd planned.
βAdjunct Loversβ fills in the story begun in LIGHTSTRUCK, and provides a closer look at Rossβs and Elleβs complex personalities as they make their sexy way toward happily ever afterβwith the help of a very special brew.
