Gabriele e Nicolò sono diversi, è la stessa cosa che si ripetono entrambi. Gabriele cerca di non affondare tra i libri universitari, per Nicolò è l'unico aspetto della sua vita ad andare a gonfie vele. Gabriele ha un "cuoricino morbido", Nicolò è una "statua di granito". Gabriele spera tanto di trovare un qualcosa che Nicolò non ha nemmeno intenzione di cercare. Gabriele guarda al futuro con incertezza, Nicolò ha un passato che assomiglia tanto a una palla da due tonnellate al piede. Barcamenarsi nel presente non è facile, e forse è l'unica cosa che li accomuna.

Gabriel Wright è uno stacanovista compiacente: ama riempire le sue giornate di lavoro, non darsi tempo per deragliare... Ma dove, o da che cosa, vorrebbe evitare di schiantarsi? È passato così tanto tempo dall'ultima volta in cui ha avuto un attimo di fiato, da averlo, quasi, dimenticato... E la cosa non gli dispiace per niente. Tuttavia, Clare non ci sta, e quando le si presenta l'opportunità per aiutare il suo migliore amico non ci pensa su due volte, e gli serve sotto al naso la possibilità di diventare il baby-sitter di due, diversamente, adorabili ragazzini, ma anche di un... "cagnolino" di nome Oscar, di una donna dedita agli uomini impegnati e agli alcolici, e di un uomo, dannatamente sexy, ma tutt'altro che conciliante. Anche Blaze Morante ha i suoi perché, ma sembra del tutto intenzionato a tenerli per sé, nascondendoli con cura dietro un irritante sorriso. E, forse, a causa di tutto ciò, "la cosa" contro cui Gabriel sperava di non schiantarsi si appresta, suo malgrado, a travolgerlo e a sconvolgergli la vita. ‹‹Mi piacerebbe riuscire a non farti sentire più solo. Mi piacerebbe che trovassi qui, con me, il tuo posto nel mondo.››

Si sa, il percorso della vita non è sempre tutto rose e fiori. Talvolta è intriso di trappole, di poche vie di fuga, di sassi in cui si può inciampare, di compagni non sempre sinceri e pochi che restano al tuo fianco aiutandoti ad alzarti. Talvolta si preferisce non aver provato alcune sensazioni, di non aver commesso errori, di non aver visto crudeltà, di non aver subìto dolore. Ma nulla è perfetto e questo Wystan lo sa benissimo, come sa che certe cicatrici rimangono e che alcuni ricordi non sempre sono a portata di mano. Cosa succede quando una persona riesce ad incidere pericolosamente tanto nella vita di un'altra? Questa non è solo una semplice storia d'amore, questa è anche la storia di una grande amicizia, la storia di una vita. La storia di Wystan Timothy Hale e...degli altri. Avvertenze: -Tematiche delicate (bullismo, disturbi mentali.) -Violenza -Presenza di linguaggio scurrile -Coppia M/M e non.

[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? Genre: Contemporary Romance / Fake Relationship / Friends to Love / HEA Guaranteed / Dual POV There will be mature scenes between two men that I will mark accordingly. These scenes are intended for mature audiences. This is a spin-off of the worlds of King of Hawkings/Death & Tequila and A New Song/Beats of the Heart, but it is a stand-alone novel, so reading the other novels is unnecessary. However, some old characters will appear, so you may enjoy it more with the full background.

With the Deorun War behind them, Finn and Tannix are looking forward to some time to finally relax. Until Tannix's brother Tandrin points out that other noble families are going to start pressuring Tannix to pick one of their daughters to lead West Draulin as his wife. Luckily, Tandrin has a solution-they can't pressure him if Tannix isn't around. And so, Tandrin decides to make Tannix an ambassador and sends him to visit the kingdoms along the Northern Coast. With the knights in tow, as well as some allies from Deorun and Navire, Tannix and Finn head out. Along the way, they learn about different cultures and see new sights, while improving relations between Zianna and the Northern countries. They meet plenty of new people, as well as some old friends. And maybe, some old enemies.
