Summary
Jerusalem had fallen. Now, on top of the indignity of having to walk - walk! - to Alexandria to avoid getting shot out of the sky, Yusuf al-Kaysani has the double misfortune of being saddled with a filthy, empty-headed, exasperating Frank who doesn't even seem to know what his wings are for.
But after an explosion of temper reveals something about his enemy that Yusuf could never have fathomed in a thousand years, Yusuf finds himself looking at his companion in a whole new light. Suddenly tasked with helping Nicolo achieve a dream, an unexpected spark of compassion is born, that leads to forgiveness, to friendship, to all and more.
Every love story is a kind of dance.
Or - Yusuf and Nicolo live in a world where everyone has wings. It changes a lot about their world, and nothing about them.

Summary
Joe and Nile have been raised by witches. They both want something different out of life and out of love -- namely, Nile wants to experience the magic of everything, and Joe wants to use his magic to protect himself from the fallout of passion that can go wrong. But one day when Nile brings trouble home with her in the form of a dead man, and a detective named Nicolo who comes looking for answers, Joe is forced to confront everything he's spent his entire life trying to avoid.

Summary
When Joe dies for the first time, he is suddenly removed from his unsatisfactory life--from his disappointed family and his financial struggles--and accepted into a small group of people who say they are his family, and they will accept him as he is.
He comes to love them. One in particular. But Nicky says he doesn't love him back.
Maybe it isn't that simple.

Summary
Joe and Nicky meet, and do not like each other.
Then they meet again, and do not like each other.
Then they meet a third time, and do not like each other.
It all goes swimmingly, until it doesn't.
