Elmer has always stayed behind in his quiet, snow-covered Maine town, balancing two jobs and caring for his grandmother. Life is slow and steady-but beneath the calm, memories of Smith, his childhood love who left for Boston after sophomore year, linger like frost in the corners of his heart.

When Smith returns after five years, the past and present collide. Snowy streets, frozen ponds, and familiar feelings become the backdrop for quiet confessions, gentle gestures, and the slow unraveling of old wounds. Amid winter's hush, Elmer discovers that some love endures, and some hearts never truly let go.

This Winter, and You is a tender story of nostalgia, longing, and second chances in a small Maine town where every snowflake holds a memory.All Rights Reserved

Easier said than done for Miles Thompson, a college senior who just wants to cruise through his final semester with a little fun and as few complications as possible. But when a freak blizzard traps him in Logan Arver's freezing apartment---with no heating, one uselessly thin blanket, and the most irritating guy on campus---simple is officially off the table. Logan is smug, infuriatingly calm, and way too good at getting under Miles' skin. Miles is short-tempered, sleep-deprived, and absolutely not interested in making new friends. But with the snow piling up, the power on the verge of cutting out, and nowhere else to go, they're forced to navigate more than just the storm together, long after it ends.

I've walked down that road before, and I refuse to bow at another man's feet. I will not be ruined a second time, and I most certainly will not be ruined by Griffin Knight.

So, why is it the minute I set foot back on U.S. soil, I am automatically magnetized to the one I tried so hard to leave behind? Not only am I forced to work with him toward my best friend, Prince Cyprus, wedding day, why does he have to be Evander's best man? Also, why? Just why was he recruited as a model by my Mother for my debut fashion line? Why do I have to go through the torture of seeing him in close quarters almost every day? And why is he suddenly starting to notice the signs of my past that I've worked so hard to keep hidden? Why is my guard slipping around him? Why does his touch promise safety and security, when I'm never supposed to know what that feels like? I don't even like to be touched, but why do I start to crave his? No, he can't slip past my walls. He'll see everything. He'll see every weakness I've worked so hard to keep hidden. And he'll see nothing except the dead shell of a person I mask like an expert. But why does it seem like every time he looks at me and sees through my facade... that he wants to bring me back to life? He's an error in my code. But I suppose errors can lead you toward something you swore you never deserved. Love.

By a curel whim of the moon he has been granted a mate, but their bond is nothing either of them wants.

Apricity by eclipsedsun

Apricity [noun] - the warmth of the sun on a cold winter's day. - - Noah spent his days trapped in the frostbitten monotony of routine - wake up, classes, work, sleep.

Having spent the entirety of his life untouched by those rays of light, he had, at last, resigned himself to a life of endless winter. That was until he met Riley. If summer were to take shape, it would choose Riley as its vessel in every universe. Oddly enough, he'd spent his life on ice, craving the cold as his own future built up to be lived beneath the scorching beams of limelight. Could Riley be the warmth of the sun that finally thawed the snow that had piled up around him for years - or would the icy cold end up extinguishing the flames trying to reach Noah?
