    Summary

    Dennis Whitaker’s life is in freefall.

    Dennis' family disowned him for coming out and breaking off an engagement they'd spent years cultivating, his medical career was destroyed after being blackballed in the industry from his ex-family's foundation, and now he scrapes by as a barista, barely able to afford coffee, let alone his dreams.

    Exhausted, broke, and invisible in a city that once promised him everything, Dennis stumbles through double shifts until a chance encounter changes his fate:

    Dr. Michael “Robby” Robinavitch, a charming, wealthy celebrity in the medical industry, walks into Dennis’s coffee shop and sees past his exhaustion and desperation to the man beneath. What starts as flirtation quickly deepens when Robby offers Dennis warmth, kindness, and a way out, where both parties can get exactly what they want.

    For Robby, a relationship where he knows exactly where both parties stand. For Dennis, a chance to live in the lap of luxury and have a chance at returning to the industry he loves. For both? They'll have to decide if this relationship is purely transactional, or if something deeper is bubbling under the surface.

    Summary

    The first couple of dollars that the machine ate up without remorse were an annoyance, something that made Dennis sigh and unzip his wallet without thinking about it to try again. By the time that the vending machine had eaten seven whole dollars, in coins, and Dennis didn’t have anything to show for it, he was close to thumping his forehead against the cool glass and hoping he could derive some sort of enjoyment or nourishment from simply just looking at the colourful packages as they remained firmly in their coils.

    He didn’t often carry coins. Those were his last few dollars and he was woefully aware that somebody had offhandedly mentioned that the staffroom vending machine destroyed notes, so he wasn’t going to be getting a soda, a bag of chips or anything else that might settle his belly from the incessant grumbling it was doing.

    ~

    5 times + 1 that Robby buys something for Dennis and makes him feel like he's about to keel over, right there and then.

    Summary

    Still, he’s felt like absolute shit for weeks, and the idea of sitting in his hotel room, where he would probably masturbate, cry, and have another night of fitful sleep, did not make him feel any better. Getting to be skin to skin with Ilya Rozanov did. And surely Rozanov wouldn’t be demanding Shane make a nest in his damn bed if he didn’t fully intend on actually kissing him in it and keeping him there until morning, right?

    Maybe that would be enough to pick Shane up out of this drop, keep it from happening again.

    OR

    After not sending the "we didn't kiss" text, Shane's omega hormones go into distress mode. Despite trying to hide his symptoms and play through the misery, when Ilya Rozanov finds out what's going on, the alpha Shane's body wants most is determined to fix it.
