    Summary

    A plan is hatched, the scene is set and strings are pulled to orchestrate a romance. However, Romeo comes in the form of TK Strand, and TK's never been particularly good at following the script of a love story.

    Summary

    TK Strand has been an attorney long enough to know that networking events with accounting firms offer little more than terrible wine that he doesn’t drink, uninspiring small talk and a stack of identical-looking business cards.

    Until he takes Nancy up on a bet and winds up having all of his preconceived ideas about business development being challenged by an accountant who is very far from boring.

    Summary

    “Carlos.”
    It’s not Campbell’s voice calling his name anymore. It’s softer… warmer…
    “Carlos, baby, I need you to stay with me.” Two gentle hands cup both of his cheeks. Everything is cold, so very cold, but the hands are warm against his skin, and for the brief moment that they’re touching him he feels like he can breathe again.
    “TK… Tyler?” He mumbles. The words taste bitter and metallic leaving his mouth. He’s not sure how it’s possible that he’s here. They’re too far from Austin for it to really be him. It has to be a dream, one last dream of his husband before he drifts off forever…
    “I’m right here, baby. I need you to stay with me.”

    OR: Carlos is dying and it's TK that comes to save him, because who else would it be?

    Summary

    He should have been smarter, or maybe a little more scared. It was Carlos' hubris that got them into this situation in the first place, thinking he could take on intruders with nothing but the threat of his gun and de-escalation training.

    "That's the job," a voice that sounds suspiciously like his father rings in the back of his mind. "You make split-second decisions and learn to live with the consequences."

    "Whose consequences?" he shoots bitterly back at a man who's not even here with him. Gabriel doesn't respond.
