    Summary

    Wymack’s voice trails off, words stuttering to an abrupt stop. All heads turn, slowly following the path of Wymack’s gaze.

    Andrew spots him almost immediately - hair as black as night, curls gentle and full atop his head. He’s got a bruise the size of a baseball around his eye, freckles spattered out around it like an explosion of stardust. His eyes are the colour of the sky, cresting with storm clouds.

    His hands are in his pockets as he walks by, fisted around something. He doesn’t look at any of them as he passes, eyes downcast.

    Andrew’s never seen him before.

    “What the hell happened to your face, Neil?” Wymack shouts, voice startling in the aftermath of silence. Neil doesn’t stop, plundering by the team and their coach without a second-glance.

    __

    In which Wymack adopts Neil at the age of 13, after the world has already chewed him up and spit him back out a few times over.

    The Foxes are still the Foxes, and Neil and Andrew are still destined to find each other.

    Summary

    After a recent breakup, Andrew and Neil drag Kevin out to their local BDSM club, where he meets Jean and Jeremy – two men who are like no one Kevin has ever met before. Devastatingly handsome, intelligent, and confident, they pursue Kevin unrepentantly, and Kevin finds himself slowly falling for their advances.

    But while his interest is captured, he can’t help but notice some of the cracks in the façade. The brightness of Jeremy’s smile, the smooth avoidance in Jean’s conversation – there is more to both men than meets the eye.

    When all of their skeletons are finally laid bare, Kevin will have to decide: Is the cost of vulnerability simply too high? Or will letting them in give him something so much greater than he’s ever known?

    Summary

    “So,” Neil asks as he washes his paint-covered hands in the kitchen sink, “Christmas.”

    Andrew glares and says nothing. This year, Neil and Andrew are spending Christmas with Andrew’s brother, Aaron Minyard. Aaron Minyard, Andrew’s twin whose existence was unknown to him until two months previous. Aaron Minyard, an orthopedic surgeon with a wife (an oncologist, naturally) and two daughters. Aaron Minyard, who grew up with a mother that chose him.

    **

    Andrew Doe has survived until now without any biological family, and his life turned out pretty good, considering all of the reasons it shouldn't have. At age twenty-nine, Andrew's book becomes a bestseller and leads his long-lost twin brother to him. Familial drama ensues.

    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.
