Summary

Months after the liberation of the Red Palace, freed prisoner Max Murphy is still there, hoping for the return of his stolen ship and trying to forget the day he lost everything. Meanwhile, ex-Li pilot Jiang Tai is keeping his head down and wishing he could forget the secrets he carries. Or just forget anything at all. When the station is blockaded Max and Tai are sent off on a desperate mission to end the siege.
Spending weeks on an awkwardly small ship with a weird, sleep-obsessed, former pirate of the most fanatical sort is not Max's idea of a good time -- even if Tai is kind of cute. Tai never reckoned on a long trip with a hot mess like Max, who doesn't even maintain a regular bed time. But the time they spend together helps both of them start to put their bad memories in the past. In the end they'll lay the ghosts of their memories by doing something worth remembering together.

    Jeremiah Pace hasn't left his house in thirteen years. He doesn't trust anyone, least of all shifters. School was a nightmare, and despite never interacting with anyone in the village, the bullying continues in his adult life. Someone is putting ads in the paper, encouraging people to drop by his house for one service or other, but Jeremiah never opens his door.
    
    
    Zeeb Hemming is a lone wolf and the new chief of police. He's only been in Stoneshade for six weeks when he learns about the ads and goes to knock on Jeremiah's door. Not because of what today's ad said, but to get to the bottom of what's going on. Human or not, Jeremiah deserves to live life in peace. The moment Zeeb nears Jeremiah's house, he knows he's his mate. But he can't have a human mate.
    
    
    Jeremiah pleads with Zeeb not to stir anything up. Yes, the ads are bad, but things can always get worse. Zeeb is furious someone is mistreating his mate and is willing to skin anyone who has any connection to the ads alive. But how is he to convince Jeremiah to trust him when he talks to Zeeb through a gap in the window instead of opening the door to his house?

    Derek Smith has been working as a super since the New Year, but still can't quite get the hang of it. He can clean, he can deliver notices, and he can even evict people without too much fuss -- but fixing toilet tanks? No, thank you.
    Yet that is what he is tasked with doing when an order comes down from the higher up bosses. Since this job is pretty cushy so far, he tries it out. And soon learns from a very impressive expert called Mr. Fix It online. 
    Derek soon becomes obsessed with the deep voice of the plumber, along with his calloused hands and his skills fixing anything he touches. He can't see him -- Mr. Fix It never shows his face online -- but Derek is pretty sure he'd fall for him right away if he saw him in person. What that means for Derek -- a typically straight guy -- he's not too sure. But his fantasies are harmless, and so he continues to both use Mr. Fix It's video to repair his building and get himself off at night. 
    When an emergency in the building means that Derek must call in outside help, a familiar plumber shows up and lends more than a helping hand ...
