Finding Us by Faith Gibson

After the lead singer for 7’s Mistress decides to leave the band, the remaining members are left to figure out their next steps.

For Les “Pauly” Paulson, that means staying in Nashville writing and playing music, and spending his life with his best friend, Sloane, the band’s bass player. But Sloane’s ideas don’t mesh with Pauly’s, leaving the lead guitarist feeling adrift.

Sloane Vargus has been in love with his best friend and bandmate, Pauly, for years. With Christmas over, Sloane is looking forward to spending a quiet New Years with Pauly, but Pauly has different plans. When he asks Pauly to go on the road, Pauly pushes him away, so Sloane runs back to California.

Can two men who’ve spent the last fifteen years together find a way to live apart? Or will they find a way to make music together both on stage and off?
