X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>When two bisexual exes accidentally book t
 he same European food and wine tour\, they challenge each other to a hooku
 p competition to prove they're over each other&mdash\;except they're defin
 itely not.</p>\n<p>Theo and Kit have been a lot of things: childhood best 
 friends\, crushes\, in love\, and now estranged exes. After a brutal break
 up on the transatlantic flight to their dream European food and wine tour\
 , they exited each other's lives once and for all.</p>\n<p>Time apart has 
 done them good. Theo has found confidence as a hustling bartender by night
  and aspiring sommelier by day\, with a long roster of casual lovers. Kit\
 , who never returned to America\, graduated as the reigning sex god of his
  pastry school class and now bakes at one of the finest restaurants in Par
 is. Sure\, nothing really compares to what they had\, and life stretches o
 ut long and lonely ahead of them\, but&mdash\;yeah. It's in the past.</p>\
 n<p>All that remains is the unused voucher for the European tour that neve
 r happened\, good for 48 months after its original date and about to expir
 e. Four years later\, it seems like a great idea to finally take the trip.
  Solo. Separately.</p>\n<p>It's not until they board the tour bus that the
 y discover they've both accidentally had the exact same idea\, and now the
 y're trapped with each other for three weeks of stunning views\, luscious 
 flavors\, and the most romantic cities of France\, Spain\, and Italy. It's
  fine. There's nothing left between them. So much nothing that\, when Theo
  suggests a friendly wager to see who can sleep with their hot Italian tou
 r guide first\, Kit is totally game. And why stop there? Why not a full-on
  European hookup competition?</p>\n<p>But sometimes a taste of everything 
 only makes you crave what you can't have.</p>\n<p>Register now to join our
