Queerslowburn Stories

Jace Carson isn't sure what he wants-but it's definitely not to spend his summer lifeguarding with Eliot Hart, the quiet, awkward boy who's everything Jace's world tells him not to be. But the longer they work together, the harder it gets to ignore the way Eliot makes him feel. Eliot's been hurt before and isn't quick to trust. Jace isn't out, isn't sure, and can't stop falling anyway. Bittersweet, tender, and slow-burning, The Summer Between is a story of first love, self-discovery, and the quiet moments that change everything.

He was born to inherit. He was hired to assist. Neither expected to unravel. Benjamin Astor-Black is the golden heir to a legacy he never asked for-measured, obedient, and already promised to a woman he barely knows. With the clock ticking on his arranged future, he's assigned one final project before taking his rightful place at the head of the family empire: lead a groundbreaking innovation team to secure the Astor-Black name for a new generation. Elliott Callahan is not impressed by pedigrees or power. Sharp-tongued, fiercely competent, and burned one too many times by men who only wanted him in secret, he's not here to babysit a rich boy with soft hands. He's here to build something that lasts. When the two are forced to work side by side, what begins as mutual irritation quickly sparks into something deeper-raw tension, unsaid truths, and a fire neither of them are ready to name. But as secrets surface and expectations close in, Benjamin must decide: does he want the life he was born to live-or the man who makes him feel alive? In a world ruled by legacy, love was never part of the blueprint.

NOAH: Sharing a room with Adrian Torres was not part of my academic excellence plan. He's loud. He's always shirtless. And he seems to enjoy pissing me off a little too much. I don't like him. I don't think about his stupid smile. Or his ridiculous abs. And I definitely don't get jealous when he flirts with other people. (Which is constant.) This is fine. I'm fine. Totally, completely fine. ADRIAN: I didn't ask to share a room with the guy who humiliated me on the first day of junior year. But now I live with Noah Hart - the repressed, uptight, annoyingly organized Noah Hart. He looks at me like he wants to kill me. And I like it. Which is hilarious. Because I don't like him. I just like pissing him off. We argue. He glares. I say shit I probably shouldn't. He blushes. I pretend not to notice. (Okay, I notice. A little.) But it's nothing. It's not flirting. I don't even like men. Enemies. Roommates. Something else entirely.
