Summary
In his final year of college, Dean Winchester’s got a lot of decisions to make: what he’s going to do with his life, where he’s going to do it, and most importantly, which girl he’s going to do... right now. And later tonight. And the next night. And the next—
When new transfer student Castiel Novak shows up first in his class, and then his friend group, Dean can’t help but see it as an infiltration. Something is up with Castiel, and he’s going to find out what. More accurately, he’s going to enlist his best and longest suffering hacker friend, Charlie Bradbury, to do it for him.
Not a single one of Dean’s suspicions has anything to do with the fact that upon their first meeting, Castiel insults his shoes, his general existence, and his masculinity by— looking at him like that.

Summary
With Goffredo Tedesco in a hospital bed, with thirty stitches in his belly, Aldo Bellini's life is in shambles. He stumbles to pour his heart out to the one person he knows won't judge him, he goes and talks to Vincent. It's not like Aldo held the knife. It's not like he guided it towards Goffredo's stomach. It all feels like his fault, though.
There is so much history, literal decades, between the Secretary of State and the Patriarch of Venice. Animal-like hatred turned to respect and to a wild love affair - Aldo finds himself telling the full, true story for the first time ever. How could he live with himself now? The guilt is a rock upon his shoulders.
A story of how mistakes can lead to bigger mistakes, but once you make it out of hell, you can only go up.

Summary
“Do you always watch me that closely, Eminenza?” he asks, eyes on Aldo. Something in his voice has shifted, too, dropping it into what might almost be a conspiratorial mutter, and Aldo shouldn’t delude himself into thinking he can read anything into it. It’s been too long.
Some doors should stay closed, especially after they’ve been slammed shut.
After the conclave, over the course of seven days and seven conversations, Aldo Bellini is forced to retrace the steps of a past he's spent thirty years trying to forget and slowly comes to the realisation that old, buried feelings might not have been buried that deeply after all.

Summary
Interpersonal matters have never been his strong suit; there’s a brashness to himself that he can’t quite shake. He attributes it to the dog-eat-dog world of growing up the youngest of eleven. He’s struggled to get past the acquaintance stage with any of the men in his cohort and it should worry him, but in all truth, he likes his solitude. Having time and space of his own is still a novelty even four years post leaving his childhood home. The majority of his free time is spent reading and listening to the silence around him.

Goffredo makes a new friend and learns how to play chess, smoke a cigarette, and do a pull-up…among other things.Bookmarked by LMICHELLEB

Summary
Aldo Bellini is an art restorer dreaming of the day he gets to work on a piece by his favourite Renaissance artist, Jacopo Lomeli. Goffredo Tedesco, PhD, is an art historian tracing the story of the world's most elusive Renaissance artist... Jacopo Lomeli.
When an extremely rare Lomeli painting falls under the threat of being trapped forever in a selfish man's private collection, Aldo and Goffredo race against time to find answers about this mysterious man from the past... provided the police don't catch them first.
In Aldo's defence, it wasn't exactly his fault. Blame it all on Goffredo, and Aldo's inability to say no to him, no matter how hard he tries.

Summary
Cardinals Goffredo Tedesco and Aldo Bellini have not spoken civilly in three years. Not since Aldo left Goffredo without a word, without a backward glance, without even the dignity of goodbye. Now, all they have are barbed remarks, glares across the sacristy, and the cold war of Vatican politics.
When an ecclesiastical summit in Siena leaves only one hotel room mysteriously available, their friends—Vincent, Thomas, Raymond, and Giulio—pull some strings and force them to share it. Just for the week, they said. Just long enough to keep the peace.
But when tensions ignite, old wounds reopen, and Goffredo throws himself in front of an attacker meant for Aldo… suddenly the room isn’t the problem anymore.Love, like vengeance, remembers everything.

Summary
Everyone in the Vatican had heard how the Venetian Patriarch had been forced to take in his grand-niece after the sudden death of her parents, but Aldo had assumed she'd be quickly passed off to other relatives once she arrived in Italy. Now, seeing the way Tedesco interacts with the girl, Aldo can't help but wonder if the plan has changed.
Tedesco acquires a child, and Aldo, for some reason, can't help but be fascinated by the changes this brings about in the Curia's most infamous conservative.

Summary
A story of silence, return, and the ache of almost.
Five years after walking away without a word, philosophy professor Aldo Bellini arrives in Milan seeking a quieter life, only to find himself face-to-face with the man he once couldn’t stay for—Goffredo Tedesco. Grumpier now, running a bookshop beside a café that smells like oranges and sarcasm, Goffredo is every bit the silence Aldo once feared… and everything he finds himself returning to.
What begins again as late nights and careful distance quietly unravels into something else. But this time, it’s Aldo who wants more—and Goffredo who’s learned to guard what’s left of his heart.
Set between espresso cups, unwritten letters, and cities that never forget, In the Time Between is a story of what lingers after the leaving, and what love becomes when it’s been given a second chance… even when no one dares to call it that.

Summary
“Well, our Dean is a born manager,” Aldo replies. “Although…” He frowns, shakes his head as if trying to dissuade himself. “I do wonder, sometimes.”
“What of?” Vincent asks.
Aldo sighs, a long laboured noise. His hands dart up again to his glasses although they remain firmly in place. “You asked us once,” he finally says, “what we knew of war. A good question, Your Holiness, yet I cannot help but wonder what you know of Thomas Lawrence.”
I understand that he is no longer yours, Vincent thinks. He is your friend, and I have no intention of standing between you, but you cannot sink your teeth into him and growl whenever another comes near. Not anymore.
Or: in the days after, Vincent, Thomas and Aldo wrestle with ambition, loyalty, and the price of never getting what you want.

Summary
Lawrence is considering the benefits of leaving the room to go throw up somewhere when Vincent finally speaks.
“I wouldn’t call it a crush,” he says, his voice even and calm, brown eyes sparkling.
Lawrence nods, slightly hysterical. “You wouldn’t?” He asks hopefully. Good, okay. Vincent agrees. All that’s here is friendship. Simple, easy, proper. Appropriate. Friendship.
“No.” Vincent shakes his head and sets his teacup down. “I would say that I am in love with you.”

Summary
Thomas Lawrence has a nasty habit of never mentioning anything as it pertains to his life. He doesn't mention birthdays, familial situations, or even if he is actively bleeding out.
But when his teenage niece comes to visit for the summer, she finds it incredibly easy to inspire havoc in the Curia, bring out a wild side to her straight laced uncle, and pushes together a relationship with her bare hands. This is all incredibly natural- it's the Lawrence way, after all.
