    Summary

    Andrew and Neil have a secret(ish) thing. A sort-of thing. A thing that's not exactly a thing, because rule number one of letting a guy sneak into your bed to sleep several nights a week (while you watch him from a safe distance and deny being interested in him) is this: under no circumstances are either of you allowed to talk about it.

    But with just two weeks left before summer vacation, they're running out of time to figure out what happens next.

    Or: Andrew procrastinates on his thesis, Neil sleeps in Andrew's bed, and it turns out that sex is a great alternative to talking about what’s actually going to happen once their semester is over.

    Summary

    From the moment they meet, Andrew hates Neil Josten on principle alone. He's disgustingly rich, disgustingly hot, and disgustingly obsessed with Exy, which means he's also disgustingly stupid in Andrew's opinion.

    But when Neil offers him a small fortune to be his fake fiancé for two months to get the press off his back, Andrew can’t exactly say no. Even if he thinks Neil’s plan is a strong contender for worst PR strategy of the century, he needs the money.

    Desperately.

    And really, eight weeks is nothing. Andrew can handle a couple of fake dates, some weird photo ops, and a few pre-wedding clichés in exchange for his financial independence.

    Besides, what's the worst that can happen?

    Summary

    It starts with an almost illegibly-scrawled message on the back of a cheap photographic reproduction of Falmouth Beach, and a single line that, like everything else in Andrew Minyard's life, he will never forget.

    Or: five times that Andrew gets postcards from Neil and one time that he doesn’t, set against the backdrop of six different beaches.

    Summary

    It starts as a bet. A really stupid bet, considering the circumstances. Neil would go to Eden's - the local BDSM club - with Kevin for two months. 'Socialization', Kevin called it. 'Making new friends'. 'Learning to act like a human fucking being for once'. (Kevin says a lot of things, few of them nice. But being right doesn't give him permission to be an asshole.)

    But Neil's as stupid as Kevin is tactless, apparently, because he agreed to the bet knowing FULL WELL that he's a kinky fucker who's been not-so-subtly pining for someone to dominate him for years. He's got a drawer full of lingerie and a backpack full of sex toys. A head full of fantasies. A pocket full of condoms. All he needs is someone to play with him - but that's where Andrew comes in.

    It feels a lot like torture to Neil, and that's exactly the problem: Neil loves being tortured. Maybe a little too much for his own damn good.

    Especially when Andrew's the one doing the torturing.

    (Kevin definitely didn't see this coming.)

    Summary

    There is a house in New Orleans, it’s called the Rising Sun. It’s been the ruin of many a poor boy, and God, I know I’m one.
    -The House of the Rising Sun, Muse

    Deep within the Lilac District of New Orleans, between the cypress trees and Spanish moss, lurks a house of shadows. When secrets begin to spill out of its darkness - grotesque, slippery things borne of cruelty and unchecked greed - its very foundations begin to crumble.

    Jeremy is struggling to keep his family afloat. Kevin is desperate for an escape. Jean just wants it all to stop. Between the lies, and broken promises, they each begin to unravel the past. The only problem is that everything comes at a price.

    A storm is brewing on the horizon, and it's only a matter of time before it makes landfall. The question is: who will be left standing when it's over?
