Summary
“Come on, come on, don’t leave me like this, I thought I had you figured out”
Eva Stratt and Ryland Grace weren’t friends. And they weren’t lovers. They were some secret third thing that was filled with rivalry and dry humor. History and Chemistry and everything in between had not been enough in the end to keep their ghosts from haunting the halls of Grover Cleveland High. Now, nearly a decade and a half later, it’s time the pair lay to rest whatever the secret third thing was that still plagues them both.
Or in which Eva and Grace are high school rivals who, 15 years later, have to teach at the same school.

Summary
"It's far beyond the stars
It's near beyond the moon
I know beyond a doubt
My heart will lead me there soon"Sparks flickered persistently at the edges of his mind: a whisper of not-quite-red hair that smelled like lavender, the feeling of fingertips brushing his shoulder, a sense of belonging in all the wrongness of space.
or in which we learn why Ryland Grace chooses to dance with a suspiciously not-quite-red-headed mop in a room full of jellyfish.

Summary
Sylvie Lushton has always dreaded the holiday season and now it’s right around the corner. When she returns home, haunted by the ghosts of the lives she left behind, she finds herself sucked into a world of twinkling lights and past mistakes.
She thought she had left the past behind her, but now the one family member she had left is gone and she has to spend her already shitty holiday packing up the house and preparing it for sale. One week. She'd have to spend one week in the small town she fought so hard to get out of. Loki, her ex whom she might regret leaving if she let herself think about it, shows up and offers his services. Unable to turn him away, the pair spend the week digging through their past, and maybe, they might just find a way to a future. Together.

Summary
"Was it selfish to wish he was at the end of the world with Sylvie sitting across from him, holding him? Yes, he supposed it was but it didn’t really matter because there was no way he could tell her any of what he felt now. Not when she was making it abundantly clear that what happened at the Citadel had meant nothing to her. It had been a ploy to get him out of the way. His imagination created the saltiness of her tears that managed to reach his lips. It imagined the need, the yearning, the utter possibilities that had been in the moment when their weapons fell."
5 times Loki doesn’t say what he needs to say.

Summary
“I know we just met and all, but I need you to pretend to be my boyfriend.” Maybe it was the shaky desperation in her voice or his weakness for blondes with piercing blue eyes, but before she knew it, his lips met hers and she could have sworn a bolt of lightning hit the building."
