Summary
Eren is Mikasa’s first love, or so she thought he was. Mikasa had pretty much known Eren her whole life, but everything took a turn at Ratsgymnasium when the couple were challenged during the three years they spent together. Having forced herself to move on from him, Mikasa worked her hardest to earn her career as she also accomplished her dreams. At the age of 28, Mikasa is invited to her secondary school’s reunion with her old classmates, where she sees familiar faces again. Her heart, for the first time in 10 years, feels a spark when she sees Eren again, but nothing is the same, as it was when they were 18 and before.
At 28 years old, Mikasa wonders if she can go back to how everything once was.

Summary
“You’re being weird,” Chrissy said. “With Steve.”
Eddie sighed and tossed the rag aside. “I’m not being weird. The kid’s just… suspicious, okay? Nobody shows up in a spotless Beemer, looking that good, just to take a desk job in this dump for minimum wage. He’s digging for something, I can feel it.”
Chrissy raised a brow. “Digging for what, exactly?”
He hesitated. “Hell if I know. Me?”
She stared, then snorted. “Right. The feds finally figured it out. Send in some pretty boy in tight jeans to make you confess.”
Eddie tried not to smile, and failed completely. “You joke, but that’s exactly how they’d get me.”
“Damn right it is.”

Summary
After years of living by orders, rotations, and unspoken losses, Cody Bowman isn't looking for anything that feels permanent.
Then he meets Abigail Fitzpatrick.
Abigail's world is far from uniforms and chain of command. She works with wounded animals, broken wings and quiet recoveries, in a life built on patience rather than urgency. She isn't impressed by rank, doesn't rush silence, and doesn't ask Bowman to explain the parts of himself that still ache.
As Bowman learns what it means to stop moving and start choosing, the people who once held him together return to the edges of his life. Old friendships resurface. Old bonds deepen.
The epic love stories forged in earlier chapters of their lives - Elsie and Nicholas, Sullivan and Cope, Hicks and Kailani - are still unfolding, still shaping the men they've become.

Which was becoming clear wouldn't be any time soon.

Summary
Knock knock knock
“Jesus Christ! Hold on,” he mumbles, floating down the steps. He flicks on the porch light and yanks the door open. “What the hell are you–” He freezes.
For a moment, he really does believe he’s dreaming. You know, given that not a single fucking thing about this situation makes any goddamn sense. Because on the short trip from his bedroom to the front door, Mike made a list in his head of all of the people that could potentially be on the other side. It was a rather abbreviated list, to be fair: The cops. Nancy. His landlady, Freida. That one drunk guy he occasionally gives a cigarette to if he happens to be smoking on his porch when he walks by.
But it’s not any of those people. It’s Will. A year older, soaking wet, shivering with a waterlogged duffel bag slung over his left shoulder. Yeah. He’s dreaming. Because he had spoken to Will on the phone not even ten hours ago. He was about to go on his three year anniversary date with his long term boyfriend in New York City.
OR:
Will needs some space from his boyfriend, James, and for whatever reason, he decides to take that space at Mike's townhouse in Boston. Mike is going to be so normal about it.

Summary
When Dream receives the invite to Bad and Skeppy’s wedding in Paris—card littered with hearts and ‘City of Love’ written in a swirly font so nobody can miss what this is about—his first thought isn’t about George. After all, they haven’t seen each other in ages, not since they were kids. Whatever connection they might have had, is probably all gone anyway. All passé, if you will.
So when Dream literally runs into George at Heathrow Airport, it's a happy coincidence. A chance to start up their friendship right where they left off thirteen years ago. Definitely not an invitation for more. Anything like that would just hurt George anyway, what with Dream's awful track record and all.
Friendship might be the last thing he wants or needs with George, but it's safe.
Safe for him, safe for George.
So why the hell did George just offer to be his fake boyfriend for the wedding?

Summary
It was 1991 when Penelope, struggling to get pregnant in her marriage to Alfred Debling, made a bold and socially frowned-upon decision for the time: artificial insemination with the help of an anonymous donor.
Four years later, after a difficult divorce from an abusive husband and raising a son who still carries the emotional scars of that past, Penelope is doing her best to rebuild her life. Until a data breach at the fertility clinic exposes identities once promised lifelong confidentiality – and a stranger, with the same eyes as her son, appears at her doorstep.
—•—
“Is there something I can help you with?”
Penelope touched her son’s head with one hand and gripped the doorknob with the other, confusion and unease tightening in her chest as she watched the man before her regard her child with quiet curiosity.
“I… I have reason to believe I’m the biological father of your son.”
