    Summary

    Nick & Charlie would find each other in any universe. But what would happen if they had each found someone else first? A story about the complexities (i.e. messiness) of being human, desire, love, how sometimes things happen out of order, and, of course…being “bad”. 😈

    Summary

    Charlie is living a perfectly fine suburban life outside Denver. It’s fine, it’s great. Things are a bit strained with his husband, but that’s just married life, right? He’s happy enough. When Nick Nelson, with whom Charlie had a whirlwind two-week romance back in their college days, moves in across the way it doesn’t mean anything has to change. It was fifteen years ago, and Nick has his own perfectly fine suburban life.

    Summary

    It’s not like I haven’t dated since Charlie and I ended things – or, to be more accurate, since Charlie ripped my heart into a thousand tiny pieces and scattered them into the street, where they promptly tumbled directly down the nearest drain.

    That was a long time ago, though. I’m over it.

     

    or

     

    Nick and Charlie are reunited after five years when Charlie moves back to Truham. Charlie is determined to correct the worst mistake of his life and get Nick back. Can they both put the past behind them and move forward together?

    Summary

    After a few tough years, Charlie Spring has finally hit his stride. He’s the Head Cidermaker for Appelle, where he crafts high-end European-style ciders. When Elle, his best friend and the owner of the company, hires an outside consulting company to help them keep their doors open, Charlie finds himself in his literal worst-case scenario: having to work with Nick Nelson, a finance bro with the palate of a toddler.

    How long will it take Charlie to realize that there's way more to Nick than meets the eye?

    OR

    A heartfelt examination of what happens when you meet someone who makes you want to come out of hiding and manifest a brighter future carefully tucked into the Trojan horse of an enemies-to-lovers craft-cider AU.

    Summary

    After losing his husband four years ago, Charlie Spring has worked hard to build a comfortable new life for himself: two adorable dogs, a cozy cabin in his hometown, and a rewarding job archiving the works of local gay poet Finn Bryson. But when a film company decides to adapt Bryson's life into a movie, Charlie is hired to help prepare the lead actor. Nick Nelson is a stunningly handsome, wildly popular film star—but as far as Charlie can tell, he's also a world-class snob.

    AU with fluff, flirting, karaoke, hayrides, Taco Bell, and a lot of bad disguises.
    Also some angst! But always a happy ending.

    **Complete at Chapter 36, anything beyond is a deleted scene**
