Brent Collins, a new professor in the music department of a mid-western university, makes friends quickly among his students and his colleagues. A traumatic experience in high school has him determined to stay celibate in his personal life. However, his resolve is tested when he meets the very sexy and slightly older Gabe Sutton.
Although Gabe is happy in his work as an electrician for the college's Buildings and Grounds crew, he's less happy with his love life. He's had brief flings with a few men, but none have been worth coming out of the closet for. That is, until a new French horn professor joins the faculty.
Though Brent and Gabe are careful not to be seen in public together often, rumors begin to spread, as does a series of electrical failures on work orders Gabe has completed. Someone is out to discredit Gabe, but who? Will these incidents cause the spark of Gabe's and Brent's budding romance to fizzle out, or will exposing the wrongdoer bring their duet into ever closer harmony?
