Summary
“You're from another world,” he whispers into his wrist. Dale's fingers play with his chin, outline his moustache with their fingertips, brush his lips like they're something precious.
“You've turned my world upside down.”
“Is that an accusation?”
“It's how I feel,” Dale murmurs toward his collarbones glistening with sweat and rain and chlorine curled in his arms.

Summary
The moonlight glints between Tim's teeth when he smiles, revealing the tips of his incisors. He always smiles, even when his eyes are not. The conversation slows down in the cold atmosphere, even though Dale's body is burning inside.
He should go home, but just as that thought is brewing, the kiss arrives like a comet.

Summary
Sometimes fingers seek the company of other fingers and that's the end of it. The sky isn't shattered by thunderstorms. There are no sirens sounds. And Tim has a very comfortable hand in which to rest the palm and part of the wrist against that thumb pressing on the vein connected directly to the heart. Like saying I love you to each other in a bleeding morse. Tim breathes and Dale feels the echo, the shiver. They wring their fingers, their palms sweat together as if they were flowing blood; they form a warm womb of love.
or
What would have happened if instead of going back to Helen's, Dale had changed his mind at the last second?

Summary
For Dale, fear is something else. A pain that chews him from the inside out. A seed that roots in the bottom of his chest and infects it and screams at him to flee. He hasn't felt it in the street when the ground was still shaking. But he feels it now that he has Tim so close.
or
What would have happened if Dale hadn't let his fears control him after that first kiss.

Summary
Para un perfecto glaseado real, o royal icing, son imprescindibles los siguientes pasos: robar azúcar de la despensa, y cuantos huevos te quepan en el bolsillo. Desvalijar el limonero del jardín en compañía de la luna. Batir suavemente las claras, llevarlas a espumar. Incorporar poco a poco el azúcar, añadir un chorrito de limón. Y que cierto capitán de hockey no asome la cabeza por la cocina.

Summary
Jimin’s stolen voice has become the hottest underground track in the neon club circuit – known for triggering euphoria, hallucinations, and, in some cases, total neural shutdown. Locked away and exploited for years, he finally breaks free and is now on the run through crumbling cities, trying to find the home he was taken from.
But the underground wants him back, and the boss sends none other than Jeon Jungkook after Jimin to hunt him down. The very man who dragged Jimin from the sea and stood guard outside his tank for years, his hatred for Jimin matched only by the hatred Jimin holds for him in turn.
Jungkook is like a tide, like a pull Jimin can’t seem to shake. And he begins to wonder if, maybe, even a siren can drown.

Summary
In the aftermath of a traumatic incident that led him to drop out of university, Jayce Talis packs up everything he knows and moves to a small mountain town in the middle of nowhere to open a flower shop, eager for a fresh start on life.
What he doesn't expect, however, is for fate to send him careening back into the orbit of a familiar face from childhood: Viktor, a remarkable up-and-coming artist who not only works at the adjacent tattoo parlor, but lives directly next door.
But Viktor has ghosts of his own. Walls he'd rather remain hidden behind for the sake of those around him. Neither of them intended for the other to get close.
But love is funny like that.
