In Book Two, couples re-arrange with other partners, singles search, and they all try to figure out whether sex really is that important, whether their relationships really are secure, whether friendship can indeed become love ... or whether ex-lovers can really be friends. Rick, Carolin, Anna, Rebekka, Marlene, Anita, Sabrina, Chris and all the rest converge at Mellys Sappho Cafe in the midst of their lives of pleasure and pain, laughter, lightheartedness, luck, and lust - but mostly, "L - as in Love"!
