To put it simply, this is a story about a brother and sister falling in love and being discovered by their parents actually joined together in the usual places usually by people less closely attached by bonds of close family ties. But attached they are, and their love affair continues on through her stay in University, and his time well spent becoming a fireman.
When his sister graduates as a RN, She finds them jobs in of all places Alaska, she as a nurse, and he as a forest fireman. And with both of them with the same name everyone assumes they are happily married, and when she notifies one and all that she is pregnant, it is accepted as normal between husband and wife, and their parents were really upset. Oh, not because of the incestuous pregnancy, it was because Grandma missed out on her daughter's first pregnancy! She never missed any of the other pregnancies, and Granddad got to teach the boys the secrets of hunting and fishing and camping and ... well you get the drift. Aren't I glad that I paid my dues!

Aw hell, I don't want to be thought of as a reviewer who reviews one author over much, but readers, do not miss this this story!
I have personally been told stories about "Forever love" for forty years and its all turned to lies.
In this sweet story it doesn't!
Read it!

Big news! We now have proof that reading Lubrican is one of the best methods of dealing with the common coma.
The research is still in its earliest stages, of course, but the author's oeuvre makes numerous appearances throughout "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," a story of a brother and a sister and the circumstances that helped them reevaluate their relationship.
Bobby has been pressed into service taking care of his sister Heather, who has been in a coma for six months. The siblings have a history of being at odds with each other, but Bobby does his best to be a good brother, giving dramatic renditions of comic books, putting together mix tapes that cover the popular music Heather has missed, and, in general, giving a lot of thought and voice to their relationship and why it went so far off the rails. He finally realizes that he actually likes her, and is beginning to see her as a girl, and not just a sister.
Disturbed by those thoughts, he heads for the Internet for clarity, which, naturally, leads him to incest erotica. And then he reads her some Lubrican stories to both explain why he's purving on her and as an assurance that he would never do anything to hurt her.
Confusing? Maybe, but only because Lubrican does such an outstanding job of writing the teenagers in this story in a realistic way, their insights balanced by their lack of maturity.
The concept of reading to those in a coma includes the assumption that they can actually hear you, and Bobby frequently finds himself expressing thoughts he'd rather his sister didn't remember. So what happens if she regains consciousness?
That, it seems, is another story, because "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" kind of feels like at least two stories, maybe three. The coma care-giver scenes come away as a device to set up the rest of the story, the part in which the title comes into play.
And that's not a criticism. Like just about all Lubrican stories, "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" is a complete pleasure to read, a well-told tale that's a very strong entry in the "romantic incest" genre. Many stories of sibling incest either assume that the participants outgrow the relationship, or just end when the plotting becomes difficult. This is not one of those stories, making it a real gem.
As for stroke value, the eroticism comes from the situation and the big picture, rather than detailed description of the act. It's satisfying, rather than sweaty.
Oh, as a service to the reader, I should mention that the entire plot of "Moby-Dick" is summarized in a paragraph fairly early in the story. Those young people who are champing at the bit to be assigned the book in their first lit class, or those of us who have been putting it off for 30 years or so but intend to read it before they die, should skip this paragraph when it arrives. There, I've done my part for the memory of Herman Melville . . .
