    Summary

    Bradley is ready to go home. Not to Chicago and certainly not to the Lake of the Ozarks, but the Wright Resort project is the ticket that will get him back to California. All he has to do is convince a town to approve a resort they all hate...while working with his ex's family. Luckily, the hot, local Marina owner might be the solution to both problems. Jake Seresin is the perfect candidate to help him- just insane enough to do it, a man who knows the people, and most of all, not a risk to Bradley's heart. After all, there's no world where they'd ever work for real.

    Or

    Bradley's a Project Manager for a big firm in Chicago, his ex is a wannabe midwestern Hilton who thinks he should run for office, Jake isn't just a dockhand, and there are definitely raccoons plotting Bradley's demise. Love isn't always easy, but it is damn simple.

    Summary

    “Some called it destiny. Others, a curse. But when the eclipse came and the fire rose, I felt the truth. It didn’t choose me—I was always part of it. You see… the cursed don’t run. We just become.” — E.B.

    The Chosen and The Cursed is a multi-arc supernatural epic about Evan Buckley and Edmundo Díaz—two former soldiers turned firefighters, soulbonded and building a life together in a world ruled by legacy, bloodlines, and magic.

    As buried powers awaken and old enemies close in, Buck and Eddie must protect their family while navigating a world that was never built for men like them. Across multiple arcs, they face betrayal, trauma, prophecy, and the consequences of love that refuses to break.

    This is a story about found family, survival, sacred devotion, and the cost of rewriting fate.

    Summary

    An AU where Buck and Eddie met in El Paso during their senior year at high school.
    The series covers 20 years of their lives and consists of the following stories:

    Book I: The Sun City (2009-2010)
    Book II: The Crucible Sands (2011-2014)
    Book III: The City of Angels (2014-2029)
    * Epilogue: The Stygian Shore (alternate epilogue)

    * reading the epilogue is optional. If you prefer a HAPPY ending, feel free to SKIP it - it was never part of the original plan, so the main story stands perfectly on its own.

    Summary

    “I mean,” Eddie backtracks hastily, “that I probably don’t—uh, that I don’t want a hook up. Just the single, uh, kiss. For research.”

    “Right,” Buck nods. “For research.”

    They turn back to the TV, sipping beers and spooning dessert, room quiet save for the telenovela playing. Buck, gun to his head, could not tell you who or what is on the screen right now. The brave, strong part of his brain has surrendered shamefully, white flag hoisted while the rest of his brain—stupid, stupid—hosts a skillfully imagined supercut of his best friend kissing men. It’s surprisingly new subject matter for him. What’s unsurprising is his distaste for every conjured scenario, discarding each indistinguishable stranger until the reel buffers on something more… familiar.

    “Well—”

    Eddie waits a patient minute for Buck to continue before asking, “Well, what?”

    “I just mean—if it’s just a kiss, right.” Buck pauses. “You could, uh. You could try it with me.”

     

    or, buck thinks kissing men and women feels pretty much the same. eddie’s not buying it. sometimes settling a bet requires kissing your best friend, a lot, for research
