19-year-old Ryker had finally done it for better or worse. Broken away from his abusive father. Taking a job at Wilmoria's Café, he hoped for a quiet new beginning- somewhere he could rebuild his life, focus on trying to graduate high school, and rediscover a sense of safety. But his plan for solitude is quickly upended when he meets Mickey- Micah Jackson- a warm yet complex, rough around the edges 22-year-old baker and recent college grad who's been at the café for years... but seems to be involved in a whole lot more than just a café, judging by the track bike he rides, the money he always has on him, and the mysterious company he keeps. As Ryker learns the rhythms of his new life- the smell of vanilla treats, fresh bread, and coffee beans; the hum of the espresso machine and the soft laughter of coworkers... Mickey becomes his unexpected constant. What begins as mutual hatred between them both slowly deepens into something Ryker never thought he could have: trust, affection, and love. But healing isn't simple. Between confronting his past, his mistakes, and learning to open his heart to a guy with far too many layers to be just a baker, Ryker must decide whether he can truly believe in a future where he's safe, seen, and genuinely loved for who he is, all while he discovers who exactly he is. Perhaps who he wants to be. - "Broken Hearts Café" is a hilarious yet ultimately tender story about rebuilding after trauma, finding family in unexpected places- a café, a biker club- as well as the courage it takes to love again after getting it so utterly wrong the first time.

LANDON LUNA: College is finally over, and I get to go on a road trip for one month before I enter the real world. Yet, I never expected to see Everest signed up, and more than that, he requested me to be his partner for the trip. I've known Everest since we were thirteen, but he doesn't remember it. That's okay. I suspect the night we met wasn't a good one for him, and maybe it's best he doesn't remember. But now we are scouring across the east side of the U.S., and I'm starting to wonder if everything I did for Everest was in the name of something else. Something more meaningful. Something I should have understood sooner. Damn my brain. It takes me far too long to understand the proper context and even longer to grasp the meaning of my feelings. I might be in love with him. Oh, and I was diagnosed with autism a year ago, and I never told anyone. So, there is that. EVEREST PIERCE: I love him. I love Landon Luna without conditions. Without expectations. Without the need for more. And I love him with my entire heart. I wasn't the nicest person in high school. Not to anyone except the ball of bubbly sunshine. The one who waved at me every single day. But I was a goner the moment he said hello to me in my Junior year of high school when he was partnered with me on a project. Now, I need to figure out how to keep my feelings on lockdown through this trip. Because I find myself wanting. I want him, and I don't know that I am worthy enough to have him.

(This was my very first story so I can acknowledge that there are some really cringy parts-aka I will be rewriting/revising very soon!) Asher King's life has revolved around putting up an involuntary mask to hide his true self. With successful parents boasting about his 'pretend' success, Asher feels as though the life he is living was never his to begin with, and a home of happiness is far out of reach. While the luxurious life is envied by most, Asher is only followed by social anxiety and suffocation in a life he doesn't want. The only place where he feels like he can genuinely escape is the little flower shop down the street, where he doesn't expect to find the school's star football player. Leo Gaines is Greenville's golden boy who is destined for success in the NFL. One would think that Leo would do anything to keep a squeaky clean reputation, but Leo would do anything to live a life for himself.

After multiple encounters with the mysterious boy from the flower shop he works at, Leo soon realizes that he can't help falling for the flower boy. Can Leo find the relationship of his dreams while trying to find a future in a world that exudes masculinity? Will Asher finally find authenticity that will break him free from the marionette puppet he is staged to play? Find out in "Flowers for Football."
