    Summary

    “What are these?” Yuna hears Ilya ask. He’s standing with his back to her in front of the armoire next to the couch, looking up at the shelves. She’d been on her way back into the living room with after-dinner coffee when she’d paused at the threshold.

    Shane steps toward the armoire, coming up behind Ilya and curling both arms around his waist. “Um, trophies from when I was a kid. Like, minor hockey leagues and tournaments and stuff.”

    Ilya moves his head from left to right slowly, scanning the array of trophies and medals on the shelf. “Is big business? Making meaningless awards for tiny hockey players?”

    “They aren’t meaningless,” Shane protests, but he sounds a little sheepish.

    “Yes, I’m sure the…” Ilya leans in close to read the plaque on one trophy, “‘Sportsmanship Award’ for the U7 Snowflake Classic was very prestigious.”

    Shane rolls his eyes, but he’s laughing. “They don’t have awards like this in Russia?”

    Or: Yuna bonds with Ilya, one plastic trophy at a time.

    Summary

    Henry and Alex have been best friends since high school and maybe something more. (If either of them would actually do anything about it.) Enter Pez, who's had enough of watching his best mate pine.

    Armed with charm, chaos, and a foolproof plan he's dubbed Operation: Claremont-Diaz Collapse, Pez is determined to get Henry into Alex's bed. Four steps. Zero shame. What could possibly go wrong?

    "He doesn't flirt like that with anyone else," Pez went on. "He doesn't call me baby. He doesn't kiss my hair. He's not testing the water anymore-he's waist-deep, waiting for you to jump."
    Henry's hands curled into fists against his knees.
    "I don't know how."

    Pez didn't flinch. He smiled-slow and sharp, a cat with a canary. "Oh, sweet Hazza. Then buckle up.
    Class is in session."

    Summary

    “My abuela always said. ‘You like because, and you love despite.’ You like someone because of all of their qualities, and you love someone despite some of their qualities.”

    There’s a beat of silence. A heavy pause. “So what does that mean?”

    “You know what it means, sweetheart.”

    Percy and Nora are tired of their bosses being miserable and decide to do what any sane overworked assistants would do - set their bosses up.

    Luckily for them, their bosses’ secret history is about to make this a lot easier.

    Summary

    On New Year’s Eve in 2019, Henry never showed up to the White House Trio party and he stopped answering Alex’s texts. Six years later, he shows up at Alex’s house in Austin, adding an unexpected complication to what already promised to be one of the most complicated weekends in Alex’s life. Will this one weekend fix the mistakes of the past, or leave them worse off than they were?

    But what Alex is least expecting, in the entire fucking world, is for Prince Henry Fox-Mountchristen-Windsor to step out of the car, as if this is something they do.

    As if they’ve talked, since Henry just never showed up to New Year’s back in 2019 and then ghosted Alex.

    “Your Royal Highness,” he says, something vicious inside him he’s learned to leash most of the time enjoying the minute flash of disappointment he spies in Henry’s eyes at the use of his official and utterly correct title. “It’s a surprise to see you here. What can I do for you?”
