Sometimes, home is a place you've never been before
Helen is coming home -- coming back from the amazing, life-changing, unplanned honeymoon in Fiji with her husband Tommy...
and their husband Al.
Coming back to her real life.
Only it isn't the life she left. How can she face an office full of coworkers? Worse, how can she face her family?
With Al and Tommy, she'll just have to find a way.
(FMM LGBT romance, polyamory)

By the time they made it back up to their office, Helen was crying, and wasn't sure why in the name of al-Khwarizmi that might be.
"You okay?" asked Tommy, stroking her hair.
"Yes!" Helen turned and began to snivel into his chest.
He stroked her back. "I I shouldn't have outed you us like that. Sorry."
"S-s-s'okay!" she howled, and wept on.
They stood there for a moment, her wailing, him trying to comfort her. Eventually, he sat in the big captain's chair that Al had bought him a few Christmases back, and she curled in his lap. He rocked her there, kissing the top of her head, his arms wrapped tight around her.
Unfortunately, logic had nothing to do with the matter. Feelings flooded through her, scintillescent, coruscating, opaque. Grief, shame, joy, pride
Love. She loved Tommy. She loved Al. She loved what they had all found together. The seventeen days since they spent the night trapped in the back of Poppy, Al's California-gold SUV, had given her proof after proof that they loved her. The commitment she had found with them felt far more solid and substantial than the one she had attempted to construct over five years with Ben.
Love.
Love is not all sunlight and butterflies. It is also a terrifying leap into the inky, lightning-filled abyss.
