Summary

Hunger is a funny thing. It makes people act in ways they never believed they would.
Gareth Cadell always believed he'd be a winner if society ever collapsed. He's big and strong, and he knows how to handle himself. He never considered the food issue, though. When things get too dangerous in the city, he leaves, but he hadn't realized how quickly starvation would set in. Which is why, when he comes across Kegan, he can't allow him to keep all his food for himself.
Hunger is a dangerous thing. It turns good people into unpredictable ones.
Kegan Ashida never believed he'd live this long after the collapse. He's nothing special. He's capable of killing if he has to, but he's more likely to take care of someone than to harm them. It doesn't mean he's willing to surrender. He's worked hard to build up his pantry, and he won't allow anyone to steal his food.
Gareth doesn't want to hurt Kegan. It's not his fault Gareth is hungry, and if he's being honest, he'd rather kiss him than harm him. Maybe bribing his way into Kegan's home and heart is the better way?

    Meet seventeen-year-old Noah York, the narrator of Bart Yates's astonishing debut novel. With a mouth like a truck driver and eyes that see through the lies of the world, Noah is heading into a life that's only getting more complicated by the day. 
     
     
     
    His dead father is fading into a snapshot memory. His mother, the famous psycho-poet, has relocated them from Chicago to a rural New England town that looks like a bad advertisement for small-town America. He can't seem to start a sentence without using the "f" word. And now, the very house he lives in is coming apart at the seams—literally—torn down bit by bit as he and his mother renovate the old Victorian. But deep within the walls lie secrets from a previous life—mason jars stuffed with bits of clothing, scraps of writing, old photographs—clues to the mysterious existence of a woman who disappeared decades before. While his mother grows more obsessed and unsettled by the discovery of these homemade reliquaries, Noah fights his own troubling obsession with the boy next door, the enigmatic J.D. 
     
     
     
    Part Portnoy, part Holden Caufield, Noah York is a touching and unforgettable character. His story is one of hope and heartbreak, love and redemption, of holding on to old wounds when new skin is what's needed, and of the power of growing up whole once every secret has been set free.

    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?

    Life is pretty good for Clove; he's miles away from where he was a year ago. He has a roof over his head, food in his stomach, safety, security—even a job. And nothing means more to him than pleasing his boss . . . nothing. He wants Marcel, though the man is way out of his league. If Clove can't have Marcel's heart, he wants to earn his respect, and when he receives his first solo task, he is ready. At least until the mission results in a dead body. 
     
     
     
    The moment Marcel lays eyes on Clove, he's consumed by the need to be with him in every way. So he brings him into the fold, offering him employment, in the hopes that it will be enough. But when a simple errand yields murder, missing money, and criminal powerhouses out for destruction, Marcel realizes he will do anything to keep Clove alive . . . despite the fact that he clearly has a death wish. 
     
     
     
    Clove and Marcel are thrown together on a quest for answers. As dangerous as they think it'll be, it's far worse. With bullets flying, lives in the balance, and a future unknown, Marcel and Clove must face their feelings for one another. Tumbling into love isn't easy, especially in their line of work, but they finally have what they want, and nothing in this world will stop them from keeping it.
