Summary
Alex and Henry have been neighbors since they were eight and nine. From juice boxes and Batman costumes to sneaking in eachothers windows for sleepovers, their friendship weathers everything — loss, distance, growing pains, and the terrifying, beautiful truth of falling in love with your best friend.
This is a story of years gone by filled with movie nights that turn into love letters, of stargazing confessions and time capsules buried in backyards, of two boys who choose each other — again and again, through every version of themselves.
“I met my soulmate when I was eight years old,”
“And nothing, not an ocean, not time, not anything you’re afraid of, will ever make me let you go.” -

Summary
Expectation and preparation are not remotely the same thing.
That’s the thought that flashes through Henry’s mind when his phone rings, Coach Chen displayed on the screen.
Henry had been expecting the call ever since hearing that Westbrook was smashed into his own goal at the game against Milwaukee yesterday. But he was in no way prepared for hearing the words in the light of day.
“You’re getting called up.”

Summary
“So, polo,” he says, looking Henry up and down. The contrast between their appearances—with Henry in his clean white breeches and pale blue Ariat-branded polo shirt—is stark. “That’s the one that’s like croquet on horseback, right?”
Henry is so relieved that they’re not dwelling on his accidental come-on that he can’t even be that offended. Alex delivers the barb with that same teasing smirk, and Henry is forced to laugh as he scoffs. “Not exactly.”
(As a professional polo player, rodeo is a foreign world to Henry. But when his new sponsor organises a photoshoot with a top rodeo star, he finds his life turned upside down by a bronco rider with big brown eyes and dark curls. Surely this won't become a problem...)

Summary
After one too many near-scandals, Henry finds himself trapped. The Queen has decided it’s time for him to marry, but to keep him out of trouble in the meantime, she arranges for an escort for him. Henry has no intentions of taking advantage of that particular, rather humiliating offer. His mind quickly changes, when Alex’s dossier catches his eye.
Alex never intended to become an escort; he was just helping out a friend. But here he is, facing Prince Henry, the embodiment of privilege. Alex hates everything Henry stands for—until he finds out what the deal with the other man really is.
Their initial meetings are more than awkward, but soon sparks fly. Yet, their relationship is doomed from the start, and when tensions come to a head, both Alex and Henry have tough choices to make.
