Summary

If the helicopter had to crash, at least it was during the last shot on the last day of filming. After moving from the hospital to a skilled nursing facility, movie star Jonathan is expecting his on-and-off girlfriend to swing by on her way out of town. The person who opens the door is his former on-set nutritionist Billy. They were never more than friends before. But Jonathan wants to know if he comes out as bi, could they go on a date?
Billy didn't have much of a plan when he left his pandemic volunteer gig to drive across three states. All he knew was Jonathan could have been killed in Las Vegas, and Billy wasn't there. Now Jonathan's assistant has ditched the actor and he needs help, so Billy steps in. He's positive when Jonathan's discharged, they'll discuss that date.
But recovery takes a detour, and Jonathan's second near-death experience means they have to put the brakes on a relationship. Meanwhile, in Los Angeles, two of Jonathan's past partners are negotiating their own new relationship, and Billy realizes the best thing for all of them might be ... all of them. The only real question is, does Jonathan still want him as part of the deal?

But it isn't her survival Rich has in mind.

    A Poetry Book Society Recommendation
Inheritance is a profoundly moving exploration of what is passed down by our forebearers, what is left behind when we lose someone, and what we learn from being loved. Jasmine Cooray holds our most fiercely-guarded myths to the light, refracted through second-generation diaspora, family legend and life-changing loss. Her poems embrace both the quiet and the storms within. They sing of self-belief rising to the surface as drowning feels imminent, of desire and how it can cultivate hope. This is a timeless debut: wise, wild and empowering, a lodestar for survival.
"A strident, playful language dance through life's more challenging parts, always towards something transcendent." Anthony Joseph, Sonnets for Albert, Winner of the 2022 T.S. Eliot Prize
"Intimate, vulnerable, poignant and provocative. Inheritance is a stunning debut brimming with tenderness, authenticity and heart."  Salena Godden, Mrs Death Misses Death

    Sequel to A United Front
In London during the spring of 1818, the close-knit group of men successfully routed a recent threat of extortion that particularly impacted Jo Everett and Daniel Walters. The after-effects might linger, but everyday life and other challenges keep all four couples occupied.
Luc, the musician, and Harry, the actor, are heavily involved with a production at Drury Lane Theatre. Ben is helping Edward to counter his father's edict that Edward quits London to take the reins of the family doctor's practice in Wiltshire, leaving behind his lover and his medical research.
Meanwhile, Percy is out of sorts at the prospect of his sister Eustacia's upcoming wedding. As usual, his long-suffering lover Nathan bears the brunt of Percy's mercurial moods. Life above the tailor's shop at Tottenham Court Road has apparently returned to normal since the banishment of the corrupt constable, Jabeth Snell.
But neither Jo nor Daniel has fully recovered from their close escape. Jo is trying to put on a brave face while Daniel's old doubts have resurfaced, making him keep Jo at a distance. Can Jo and Daniel weather the storm and return to their previously happy existence? And will their friends rally round to help them reconcile?
