    Summary

    Neil is a successful author with a stalker who seems to know a little too much about his past. He needs a bodyguard for his upcoming book tour. Enter: Andrew Minyard.

    I've marked this as Graphic Descriptions of Violence out of an abundance of caution, but I don't even come near the source material here.

     

    “Kevin Day told me about you.” The corners of Neil’s mouth lift the barest degree. It should be an unassuming, polite smile. Should be.

     

    Andrew isn’t convinced. He hums and leans back in his seat. “You know Kevin.”

     

    “We go way back,” Neil explains. He’s not giving any signs that indicate he’s lying, but still. Kevin usually holds his liquor better than he holds his secrets but Andrew thought he knew everyone Kevin has known since Palmetto State and he’d remember if this guy had been in the Nest.

     

    “He’s never mentioned you,” Andrew says.

     

    “I rarely mention him,” Neil replies easily.

    Summary

    The feeling morphed from an itch to a constant, the buzz of a worn-out system coming back online inside of him. It was supposed to be there this whole time, it belonged, ready to elevate Aaron to his full annoying brother potential.

    This whole time, he didn't want to undo their progress, didn't want to shame or fight Andrew.

    No.

    He wanted to make fun of him.

    Aaron calls Andrew out on being the most obnoxious boyfriend to ever boyfriend.

    Summary

    Neil Josten works as a math professor and lives a comfortable life in a neighborhood that happens to house all of his closest friends. He meets Andrew Minyard, the owner of the quaint bookstore down the street, at a barbeque and makes the mistake of agreeing to go to his book club.
    Lots of Andrew being an obviously lovesick fool, Neil being oblivious, and their friends loving them unconditionally.
