(BL) Shining Hearts
The shining started several years ago. If you meet your mate, your hearts start to shine in accord, and you know you are destined to each other. Isn't it romantic?
For Adam, whose heart suddenly shone in the presence of Logan Douglas, a school bully and his worst nightmare, it is apparently NOT!
What Would You Do
One is a baseball player. One is a Saxophone player. How are these two in any way relevant? I have not the slightest fucking clue. I guess you can ask the dumbass with the tight-ass baseball uniform. He's the one who hit it out of home after all.
The Shadow of Gloom
**Book One of The Accursed Chronicles**
August, a man from our world, stumbles into a magical realm called Laelmos, a land plagued by conspirers, winter, and the Vale, a troublesome source of corrupted magic that can hijack the system of any creature.

After stumbling into the hands of Gloom, a leader of The Remnant, August is bound to Gloom's side and is pulled helplessly into the turmoil of Laelmos. August wishes he could return home, but his purpose in Laelmos is much bigger than he first thought as an awakening happens within him, turning his world upside. August is left to wonder whether his life will ever be normal again or if he will have to embrace his new reality that threatens to destroy him.

[A Slice-Of-Life LGBTQ+ Story about the Messiness of Life & Chosen Family]
Matthew Robinson's career as a teacher seemed to have stalled, yet when the winds in the East suddenly lands him in the employ as a nanny, Matthew realizes he's probably signed up for more than he bargained for.

The house, historic as it may be, is ready to fall apart, which is now his responsibility; one kid is ready and willing to curse him, while the other is a literal ball of sunshine; and his employer is amazingly distant and critical; all of which he didn't remember reading in the job description. Matthew's suddenly very ready to jump ship, yet the longer he stays, the more he realizes they need him just as much as he needs them.
There's no flying umbrella, no carpet-bag, no spoonful of sugar, and no magic here. Oh, how Matthew wishes he had it as easy as Mary Poppins.

I'll Burn With You
[ A VERY Slow-Burn, Coming-of-Age LGBT+ Historical Romance about the Messiness of Life, Finding Home, and Yourself]
When Benjamin Price applies for the Hutchinson Academic Scholarship, he doesn't expect anything from it, a hopeless attempt to better himself. His life is in his town of Durmont - quiet, little Durmont - whether he wants it or not. Despite his hopes of escaping, he doesn't believe his abusive father will let him.
When John "Jack" Byrd Jr. finally pushes his father's patience to the limit, he's tasked with picking the recipients of the academic scholarship; he does so with angry ambivalence for having his wings clipped. His home in the city of Allisport - metropolitan, ever-building Allisport - is too small. He wants to see the world, unable to let the suffocation of expectations take him.
Neither of them expected their decisions to make their world burn.
