The dinner was shaping up to be hands down the most boring fundraising event Kent has ever attended. At least until he was introduced to the man he was supposed to sit next to. Kent is going to charm the pants off of this nice, handsome, wickedly funny art historian if it’s the last thing he does, and he is going to do it by showing off his detailed knowledge of classical mythology. 

It goes about as well as it could have been expected.
