Lifelong friends, Bob Callaway and Doug Jennings amassed an oil and gas fortune under what some perceived as very strange circumstances. Some thought they were just lucky, while others believed it was fate that led them to greatness. Bob and Doug's friendship began on the first day of college at Louisiana State University when they were assigned the same room in the athletic dormitory. Events in their lives continued to link them together like a chain. If a single link had been missing, there would have been no life long friendship or the establishment of their company, LIO & SAG, Inc. The two men's personalities resembled sandpaper-one side was smooth but the other was coarse. If you were lucky, you never experienced the coarse side. Through out college, they struggle to build their business and maintain their unique friendship, and finally, they reach success in nearly every aspect of their lives. Bob and Doug share a magical quality that keeps them grounded in reality and loyal to each other.

When you have to sing your heart out, it's best to know how.... Maggie Tannery is a true theater girl and a total shoo-in for the lead in this year's school production of Romeo and Juliet. She's seriously psyched because it looks like her crush, Daniel, might be playing her Romeo both on- and offstage -- if all goes as planned. But when her school decides to perform a musical instead, Maggie catches a major case of stage fright -- because she can't sing! With her lead role in jeopardy, as well as her chance of winning her leading man, Maggie turns to the musically talented Nico to give her voice lessons. But their voices aren't the only things that seem to be harmonizing. As Maggie tries to break a leg -- and not her heart -- she wonders who the music man of her dreams really is....

Her Slightly Significant Other, Will, will be returning from summer stock in September, to pick up where they left off. (Or will he?) But, in the days after Will's departure, Tracey decides it's time for a reality check. Her un-air-conditioned East Village apartment is a dump, her entry-level ad job sucks, her thighs don't seem to be getting any thinner, and Will seems to have dropped off the face of the earth. So, Tracey, with the help of her friends and one very attentive guy, decides to spend her summer reinventing herself…and taking a chance on liking the new woman she becomes.
