Goodreads asked Matthew Clark Davison:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Matthew Clark Davison I'd just finished Justin Torres's novel We The Animals and couldn't stop thinking of trios of brothers, one queer (like my family and my husband's family). Also, the scandal in the book is based on a real-life experience (not the outcome, but the circumstances). The fictional scandal is what I needed to propel Thomas back into his family.
