    Summary

    “Who are you? And what are you doing here?”

    What is—?

    He’s…

    He’s awake. He’s upright. The fire splitting his spine is entirely gone. Instead there’s a fist pressed against his chest nearly hard enough to bruise, keeping him pinned to the wall behind him.

    And Leon Kennedy is glaring at him, eyes angry and distrusting—and cold, that’s the strange thing. Cold, as if Luis didn’t take his last breath before those very same eyes not thirty seconds ago.

    (Or: Luis, in a time loop.)

    Summary

    “You died.” Paddy saw his body, how the sand enveloped his lifeless face like a vestal shroud. The image has haunted him for months.

    “Aye,” says Eoin, “something like that.”

    Summary

    So when Paddy, crossing the Place des Vosges one late summer afternoon, caught sight of a familiar, lanky figure reclining on one of the benches there and felt the old spark of interest light him up again, he was taken by surprise but he was not surprised. After all, he thought, he’d always quite fancied Bill Stirling.

     

    Bill and Paddy meet for the first time before they’re ready for each other. The spark is there but everything else is wrong. They meet a second time and then a third but it isn’t until years later when their paths cross in Paris that they are both in a place where a relationship between them might work—if they can let go of the hurts and tragedies of their pasts and embrace the possibilities of a future together.
