Summary

Thorn is less than pleased to see Dylan at their first major fencing tournament of the semester. He and Dylan had had a brief but hot and passionate fling after the championships half a year ago, but then Dylan cut Thorn out of his life with no explanation and they haven't seen each other since. A fencing tournament is a good place to vent frustrations -- it's one of the few places where it's okay to stab your ex with a sword -- but Thorn doesn't just want to vent, he wants answers.
However, when Dylan does apologize and give his side of the story, it doesn't make Thorn feel better. If anything, he's even more conflicted between accepting Dylan's excuses so they can be together again, or holding firm to protect his wounded pride and giving Dylan the same cold shoulder Thorn received months ago. But as they meet as rivals on the fencing strip, can Thorn really retreat from this chance to rekindle what they had before? Or will he lunge for this opportunity to see where it takes them?

    Foxxxy Rule #2: Don’t mix business with pleasure 
    Life has not been kind to Adrian Vasquez. He spends his days hiding the truth of his sexuality from his homophobic brother, sticking to every rule of his probation so he isn’t sent back to jail, and keeping out of the crosshairs of Los Hermanos del Diablo—Boston’s most notorious Mexican gang, of which his brother is a prominent member—all in the name of survival. Thankfully, he has his nights working at The Foxxxy Gentlemen’s Club as an escort and exotic dancer to keep him sane. It may not be his dream job, but under the neon glow of the Foxxxy stage, Adrian can pretend to be someone else, even if it’s only for a little while. 
    Life has not been easy for Taylor Greer. Born queer and intersex to a Southern Baptist preacher, they left home at fifteen to escape conversion therapy, masquerading as a “Christian summer camp.” After surviving four years on the unforgiving streets of Boston, they struggle to get their life back on track for a chance at a better future. Working two jobs to stay afloat and studying every spare minute to pass their GED exam, Taylor has little time for a social life, let alone a love life. But who needs romance when living is this complicated? 
    When Taylor and Adrian’s paths meet with a literal crash, a bruised plantain is the catalyst for a connection they’re both starving for. Dating a coworker never ends well, but some forces cannot be fought, and Adrian and Taylor can only ignore the magnetic pull between them for so long before physics wins. 
    Adrian knows better than to mix business with pleasure. Taylor knows better than to get involved with a colleague. But the heart wants what the heart wants, and some rules are made to be broken.

    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.
