Summary
Jesper and Wylan meet at a farmers’ convention and, long story short, they might have to overthrow the government.
Jesper was supposed to spend spring break at Nina’s—then a joint turned up in his backpack and his da decided he was coming to the convention instead. He’s miserable and bored until a chance encounter with a shy artist. He never expected to meet someone sweet, gorgeous, and interested in him in the middle of Iowa.
There’s just one tiny problem: Wylan’s father is nationally prominent and openly homophobic.

Summary
Evan Rosier was bored. To remedy this rather irritating situation, he joins BICM—an elite international law enforcement agency—despite his utter disdain for rules, regulations, plain-coloured uniforms, and, frankly, people in general. There’s also the slight inconvenience of his family ties to the infamous House of Black, the world’s most notorious crime syndicate.
From the start, Evan bonds with Dorcas Meadowes, a driven, no-nonsense magizoologist-turned-law officer who couldn’t be less like him. Against all odds, they form an unstoppable duo, diving headfirst into the world of international crime-fighting. And, to Evan’s surprise, things might actually work out for him.
If only it weren’t for his cousin’s obsessive, somewhat psychopathic friend who insists on being Evan’s boyfriend. And for the record, everyone who bothered to listen knew one thing for sure: Evan didn’t do boyfriends.

Summary
“Don’t you see?!” Cassandra demands, grabbing Nestor by the shoulders and shaking him. Patroclus watches the show with mild interest. “There are cool kids and there are losers, there are jocks and rich kids and geeks and goths and stoners and everything in between, and what we’re about to enter is a swirling vortex of horror wherein they all intermix.”
~~~ ~~~ ~~~
Or, in which Patroclus pines after Achilles, Achilles pines after Patroclus, Briseis plays matchmaker, Odysseus has bad ideas, Diomedes has worse ones, Agamemnon sucks, Menelaus can't hold down a girlfriend, and the entire school goes to war.
