    Summary

    “Try this,” Paul had said when he asked. When he asked. Because all he’s been doing in the two months since he moved here is trying to curate a routine he can keep up with filled with support groups that are meant to help. Grief, AA, private therapy sessions. And maybe they’re right. Paul, his dad, his therapist. Maybe something other than support groups would help.

    And with his options limited, the book club at the Reyes Café could be a good choice. Tea, coffee, sweet treats, LGBTQ+ books. Anyone welcome.

    TK wonders if anyone includes grieving New Yorkers with addiction issues and a tendency to ruin everything he loves.

    After losing his mom and moving states, TK finds comfort in a stranger who may need the comfort just as much. A story of loss, love, and learning to live again.

    Summary

    TK’s second winter in Antarctica starts the same as the first—short days, cold nights, and a never-ending work load. Except when Carlos returns part way through the season after a sudden departure last year, TK has to learn to cope with being in the most remote place on Earth with the man he used to warm up with nearly every night. An expedition for emergency maintenance throws them together again, but when they become part of the emergency, they’re forced to face their pasts.

    Summary

    The summer before his senior year of college at NYU, TK finds himself in Galveston, Texas, working at a restaurant on the beach. It’s there that he meets Carlos, a fellow server with a heartstopping smile and a need for a temporary break from his own life back in Austin. Without planning it, the two of them fall into a whirlwind romance that’s a bad idea for a million different reasons, yet they can’t figure out how to stay away.

    Summary

    "Hi my name is Taehyung and this is going to sound strange but can you pretend to be my boyfriend for a few hours. I'm trying to avoid someone."
    Jungkook looked down and smirked. "Sure. Dance floor?"
    This, Taehyung thought, was what he'd miss if he goes ahead with the alliance his parents had set up -the thrill of walking up to the hottest man in the club & asking him out!
    "I think I scared him away" Taehyung said, as he scanned the crowd, still clutching the hot boy's arm after hours of fun.
    "On the contrary, you got him hooked, Kim Taehyung. Hi, I'm Jeon Jungkook. I came over today to tell you that I intend to call it off- because I refused to be tied down this way."
    Taehyung gaped at him "Exactly..."
    "But now, dear fiancé, tell me if you know a good tailor."
    "Huh?"
    "For the wedding tuxedo... unless you want to elope, which is fine too..."

    Or Taekook AU where a calculative businessman and a dreamy-eyed non-conformist maneuver through the rigors of a predestined fate... too haughty to accept that it doesn't feel as forced as it should.

    Summary

    genius loci (n); ge·ni·us lo·ci: the intangible quality of a material place, which can invoke feelings of connection or disconnection

    +

    Jungkook lives a life of abundance. He's the top student in St. Therese's Art and Architecture Department, the recipient of a prestigious scholarship, and a hefty trust fund waits for him after he graduates. What he could do without is Taehyung, his infuriating, if brilliant, rival.

    While they would love nothing more than to avoid each other, a shared discovery leads them into a world of drugs, sex, and power that they'll have to navigate together if they want to make it out unscarred.
