Bus Stop Anne Dudley

When Benny and Stuart first meet on the bus, it seems like they have nothing in common. Stuart is an up-and-coming ad agency rep. Benny drives a bus Stuart takes when he's too drunk to get behind the wheel. Benny?s a doting father to a little girl who?s his whole world. Stuart?s not sure he ever wants kids.

Despite their differences, their shared circumstances bind them together. Benny and Stuart are both expecting unplanned children with women they don?t love. They?ve both spent too much time hiding from their true selves. And now that they?re being forced to face who they are, they can?t deny the attraction growing between them?an attraction that quickly deepens into something more.

Both men know the timing is wrong, and the path to any sort of future together is fraught with fear, pain, and some very difficult questions: How can they leave their pregnant spouses with integrity? How can Benny carry on an affair that might cost him his daughter, the brightest spot in his life? Can Stuart really turn his back on the comfort of the society life he?s been living with his girlfriend? But ultimately, only one question really counts: How can they go back to the lives they lived before when they?ve seen just how good love can be?
