    Summary

    When Viktor finally asks why Jayce stayed behind inside the Anomaly with him, Jayce stares at him as though he’s supremely disappointed by the question— as if Viktor has betrayed his own brilliance by asking something so irredeemably stupid. “How could I not? We’re partners.”

    Partners, Jayce calls them. Not for the first time, Viktor wonders: Partners in what?

    *

    Or: Jayce and Viktor survive the Hexcore, a blizzard, their own bodies, sharing a bed and all the things they’re too afraid to say. Slowly, they put themselves back together— piece by stubborn piece.

    Summary

    ‘I want to write about you,’ Daniel finally says. It's true.
    ‘Based on what you've shown me, I'd prefer you didn't.’
    ‘But you'd like someone to write about you.’
    ‘I'm not even twenty-five yet, I scarcely require a biographer.’

    Daniel Molloy has been living in New York for nearly ten years but his career is a non starter, taking assignments from a wire agency to fund his drug habit. One of these assignments leads him to the De Romanus Balletics Company where he meets the enigmatic, beautiful principal dancer, Armand. Daniel thinks he might be able to grow closer to the object of his affection and advance his career, resulting in a spiral of sex, drugs and (ballet) dancing.

    Summary

    Summary

    "I know what a breakup looks like," Daniel says. "The better question is, why are you coming to me about it? I'm the one who broke up your little sham."

    "This is what humans do, don't they?" Armand asks, letting his voice drop. "Crashing on their friends' couches when there's a blip in their romances?"

    "Except we're not friends. We're actually very much not friends." Daniel shrugs, as if it's all the same to him. "And I can't imagine the great vampire Armand deigning himself to sleep on my fucked-up sofa. That thing's been here since the nineties."

    "Well," Armand only says. "I saw you have a guest bedroom."
