  In a small Michigan town, in the late 1950s, the widow Etta Klein—wealthy and Jewish—has for more than thirty years relied for aid, comfort, and companionship on her Black housekeeper Harriet Gibbs. Between "Aunt Harry" and Etta, a relationship has developed that is closer than a friendship, yet not quite a marriage. They are inseparable, at once absurdly unequal and defined by a comic codependence. 
   
   
   
  Forever mourning the early death of her favorite son, Sargent, Etta has all but adopted Aunt Harry's nephew, the precocious, gay seventeen-year-old Oliver, who has been raised by both women. Oliver is facing down his departure to college—and fending off the advances of Etta's cook, Nella Mae—when the household is disrupted by the arrival of a self-proclaimed "warlock," one Maurice LeFleur, who has convinced Etta and Harry that he might be able to contact Sargent in the afterlife . . . 
   
   
   
  Ladies of the Rachmaninoff Eyes was the debut of the extraordinary Henry Van Dyke, whose witty and outrageous novels look back to the sparkling, elaborate comedies of Ronald Firbank and forward to postmodern burlesques like Fran Ross's Oreo.

  There is nothing Matthias Deverell, illegitimate son of a marquis, wants more than to remove the murmurs of treason that haunt his father's name. He is determined to do just that, even if it means completing the nearly impossible task of reassembling the globe his father used as a safe. With pieces spread all over London, it will take all of Matthias' considerable skill at intimidation to retrieve them.
  Nicholas Rexford, young Viscount Leighton, wants only to be able to provide a comfortable life for himself and his three sisters. After being left in near-poverty thanks to their father's spending and gambling, Nick is desperate to find a business venture he can invest in to turn their fortunes around. Sadly, he has no head for business, preferring to spend his time engrossed in horrid novels. 
  When Matthias finds Nick in possession of a piece of the globe, he believes the handsome young man to be in on the scheme, and decides to keep a closer eye on him. But when Nick meets Matthias, he is enthralled by the "dark and dangerous bastard" who could have stepped out of one of his novels. 
  Despite his suspicions, Matthias is drawn to Nick, but will his suspicions destroy what is developing between them and cost Matthias a chance at happiness?

  Oliver Stoll's life has gone up in smoke. Literally. Escaping an apartment fire, he's made it out with little more than the clothes on his back and his best friend and downstairs neighbor, Mia. With few other options, he agrees to stay with David Elliston, Mia's older brother. David was Oliver's first crush, first kiss, first everything. That is, until the day they broke up five years before. It hadn't been pretty.
  David Elliston is back in town. Offered the chance to oversee the Kellmen Group's newest magazine acquisition, he isn't going to let a years old heartbreak stop him. But being thrown together with Oliver is harder than expected. And the flicker of hope he's long tried to bury becomes even more difficult to contain.
  Ex-lovers, best friends, and angry parents don't make the best backdrop for rekindling a romance. But it's the lies from the past that might just extinguish any chance they have of starting over.

  All that time apart and yet the pull between them is as strong as ever . . .  
   
   
   
  Rys: Ten years ago Gabriel Mason betrayed me in the worst way. He made me question my instincts because I'd trusted him with a bone-deep certainty, and for that I will never forgive him. Seeing him again after all this time sparks memories I thought I'd buried so far down they'd never surface. He's as beautiful as I remember, but I'm older and wiser now, and I refuse to make the same mistakes again. 
   
   
   
  Gabriel: Rys Calder, wolf shifter and the biggest regret of my life. I loved him, and yet I didn't share with him the one thing that eventually became our undoing. I broke his trust and I've carried that guilt for years. I knew seeing him again would hurt, but no matter how many times I'd imagined it, being on the receiving end of his cold stares and indifference hurt more than I'd anticipated. 
   
   
   
  Thrown together again with a killer on the loose, will the past continue to haunt them, or can they move past it and claim the future that fate always had in store for them?

  GRAYSON 
   
   
   
  I know my way around the bedroom and the playroom, so I should have known that flirting with my older—and dominant—boss was a recipe for disaster. But by the time I realize I'm in over my head with the disgustingly rich and perfectly commanding Robert McAvoy, it's too late to turn back. I want him and I crave the way he makes me feel, even if it's confusing and threatens everything about the life I've built for myself. 
   
   
   
  I'm not a submissive. I'm not meek and I'm not mild, but when Rob is around it's easy to see the appeal in all of those things. 
   
   
   
  ROB 
   
   
   
  He's frustrating, but he's brilliant. He's defensive and dominant, but he's desperate to be taken care of. He's perfect for me, and it doesn't matter how long I have to wait for him to see it because he's worth all of my time and more. A back and forth game leads to something far more real than either of us bargained for, and before long Grayson is in my bed and my heart. 
   
   
   
  I want Grayson on his knees for me, and I'm willing to do whatever it takes to get him there, even if that means I have to humble myself before the man who's too scared to trust me with his heart. Whatever it takes. 
   
   
   
  Contains mature themes.
