Gus and Bob, met fighting in one of the United States' open-ended wars, fell in love, and sanctified their passion with marriage. After

five years working in New York City, they realized a dream, and bought a year-round, weekend country house. Just as they settled into urban

decompression on tranquil rural weekends, the fates intervened to made them accidental parents.


Through circumstances beyond anyone's control, sixteen-year-old Joey Hall, who had been fighting homelessness since birth, came to

live in Bob and Gus's second home. A year later, due to gun violence, fifteen-year-old, transsexual Frances McDermott became a homeless

orphan. The gay married men refused to say no to an additional foster teenager to parent.


Counterpoint, running in the background throughout this book is home and homelessness. While doing research for changing apartments,

Frances learns the history of modern homelessness and the contribution gentrification made to it. Accidental Parents is a look at

contemporary gay family life and how we live today.
