London McElles has been figure skating ever since he was little and he's hardly told a soul. After his disaster of coming out as gay, he doesn't want to be pegged as your typical gay guy even more by revealing that he's a figure skating genius. So what does London do? He hides his talent from his huge family and few friends, hires a coach with his own cash, and only ever gets caught once by his musically gifted sister Lamia. So just as London is getting ready to participate in Regionals, the unimaginable happens. London meets Markus.
Markus Andell is a casual hockey player who was only influenced to get on the ice by his mom. He is liked by everyone and hadn't found anyone he had wanted to date. Markus has been loved by everyone he meets and has never had to worry about majorly disappointing others. So just as the school year is getting started, Markus meets London.
With both boys having so much in common they click fast, almost too fast. London begins to fall for Markus and Markus begins to struggle to categorize his feelings towards London. With sexual identity, London's family, figure skating competitions, unique friends, and romance on the horizon, London and Markus are in for a ride.

First Line, Second Guess
When Sebastian Carson's older brother brings home a hockey rival, Seb's whole world flips on its head. Seb isn't sure why Isaiah Okoye needed a place to stay, but his parents didn't hesitate to offer the pull-out couch in his room. Now, Seb's stuck living with a guy he barely knows, who also happens to be a talented center with a mysterious past-and a smile Seb can't stop thinking about. As Isaiah integrates into Seb's family and tries out for their high school team, Seb wrestles with growing feelings he's not ready to name. Sharing a room, a team, and long winter nights slowly blurs the line between rivalry and something deeper. But with tryouts looming, teammates watching, and a closet that's never felt more claustrophobic, Seb must decide how much he's willing to risk-for hockey, for Isaiah, and for himself. A slow-burn queer sports romance about first love, found family, and falling for the boy who was never supposed to see you this clearly.

Orion was outed as transgender at his old school, and became victim to relentless harassment. Not to mention that in June of his junior year, his mother lost her battle with cancer. Now, he must move in with his father-whom he hasn't seen since his parent's divorce when he was 8. Moving all the way from Red, California to Lakeview, Maine, he has to start from the very beginning. But, as he starts his senior year in a brand-new school he's quick to learn that it's not going to be easy to get back on top, nor keep his head down and stay under the radar like old times. Because there's Caleb. CALEB MITCHELL, the star child of Lakeview. Honored for being so well-rounded he probably shouldn't get too close to a hill. Not only that, but he's nice. And funny. And surprisingly good-looking. And Orion's new best friend. But Caleb's lost someone too, and is struggling just as much; this perfect kid suddenly not so perfect anymore. He's got his own demons, and pressures, and a heavy depression holding him back. And yet, through these shared struggles, their friendship somehow manages to blossom into something so much more sacred. ---------- Cover and story by me, @devenwrites Official Playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2XONF7xeRhcFwDBWpbxmsB?si=7s4Whhq-RlewQIiya3UwQwConcluida

A Home For You
A boy, a student, a baseball player, a provocateur, a shop-lifter, a kleptomaniac.. all words Matt would use to describe Aiden Harper. Due to unfortunate circumstances, Matthew Cooper, a junior football athlete and proficient troublemaker, is forced to open his home to Aiden Harper, somewhat of a popular kid from a much fancier school, but even so, he still comes with just as much trouble. Thanks to their fathers' arrangement, Matt must learn to share his space with another. But can he ever get used to the presence of someone so unusual like Aiden? What Matt doesn't realize yet is that Aiden Harper comes with his own story, hidden intentions, and a quiet thirst for revenge. • • • Matt's face was reddening every moment that passed. He clicked his tongue, "Had I known we'd be welcoming in a thief into our home in the first place, I would've beat the shit out of you in that damned waiting room." Aiden lifted his head, locking eyes with Matt's dark, unflinching stare. "I'm not a damn thief," he snapped, his tone biting. He shoved Matt back, his stare as cold as his. "Don't act like you're any better. We both ended up in that same place after all." ⚠️ This story may contain themes of: - Violence - Blood - Mental Disorders - Homophobia - Intimacy

A Different Kind of Love
Max was very different -- but in a unique way. That much Justin could figure out. He just couldn't figure out what was different about her. There was something about her that drew him closer and he just had to figure that out. But what happened when he found out? Did he discover he was way in over his head? Max tried to stay to himself for the most part. He hated the idea of someone calling him a girl to his face. Just the mere thought sent him in a spiral -- he wanted to take the thing out of his pocket to make him focus on something else. But he didn't. Often. Especially since he noticed the kind-eyed kid in the front of his class noticing him more and more. He didn't know what the boy wanted -- he didn't think it could be good. But what happened when he decided to trust him? Would he regret it? *Rated mature because of the topic -- there will also be self-harm and cussing and other things like that. Read at your own risk. *Story has been editedConcluida
