[COMPLETED] [2025 Wattys Honorable Mention] Danny's neighbor should be illegal. There's no way someone should be that attractive. They've lived next door to each other for over a year. As a skinny, clumsy, sweater-loving, Modern Poetry professor, Danny never believed someone like him could catch the eye of someone as perfect as Brett. But when Danny (accidentally) RSVPs to a destination wedding he never wanted to attend, he realizes he's in a bind-he needs a plus-one. And somehow, Brett becomes his unexpected solution. Brett's MMA career was on the brink of greatness until an injury stopped him cold. Now, trying to reclaim his spot in the octagon and live up to heavy expectations, the last thing Brett expected was to build a friendship with the neighbor he's been crushing on. However, Danny is undeniably gorgeous and way out of his league, so he needs to maintain realistic expectations. But, when Danny needs a date for a destination wedding, Brett's first instinct is to offer his help. Being his fake boyfriend would not be a hardship. A romantic beach, a fake relationship, and one bed... what could go wrong?

"Do you do this often?" I whispered, trying not to let my voice shake. "Midnight grave robbing?" Zee didn't even glance at me. His footsteps were silent, predatory, moving ahead with effortless confidence. "Only on first dates," he said, dry as the ground we were standing on. I blinked. "...So I'm special." "Don't flatter yourself," he replied without breaking stride. "You're just light enough to run if the corpse gets angry." I swallowed, the thrill of danger mixing with something else I didn't quite recognize. "Wow. You really know how to make a guy feel safe." He paused, glancing over his shoulder. Moonlight caught the sharp angles of his face, and for a second, I saw something beneath the iciness-like a predator enjoying the chase. "Don't get used to it," he said. "I'm not exactly a tour guide." ************************************************************************************************** NuNew has always been a ray of sunshine in a dark world-but when he starts sensing the unliving, the supernatural suddenly becomes terrifyingly real.

Midnight in a fog-choked graveyard, where corpses aren't the only things to fear.
