Basque Country Adventures
by
Dr. Ed Hollingsworth, widowed for five years, travels to San Sebastián, Spain, after a thirty-year absence. He seeks out his first and only male lover, pro surfer Javi Elizalde.
After surviving a near-fatal shark attack, Javi turns his back on the sport he loves and becomes a recluse.
Iker Lizaso, professional jai alai player, finds himself at loose ends now that his contract has expired. Forced to retire at thirty-eight, he returns to his home in the Basque Country to figure out what to do with the rest of his life.
Three different men, encumbered by their past, converge in a city famous for its food, summer festivals, and romantic promenades. Can they find happiness together? It’ll be difficult, considering their backgrounds, and maybe even improbable, given the circumstances, but crazy things happen during Semana Grande—Big Week—and Cupid’s arrow might strike in the unlikeliest place.
