  When a tragedy derailed his life, screenwriter Isaac Zevin became a recluse. Between the cheesy straight-to-video action scripts and his drinking problem, he's surprised to get a call from Tony Kendall, the award-winning director he was slated to work with just before he fell off the map. After some persuading, Isaac agrees to help Tony realize his modernized vision of The Picture of Dorian Gray.
  
  On set, Isaac is horrified to find the lead role filled by heartthrob superstar Colby Lightner, an actor Isaac believes embodies everything that's wrong with Hollywood. Colby, on the other hand, couldn't be happier to work with Isaac and resolves to make Isaac like him. As Isaac deals with his unwelcome attraction to Colby and the stress of writing a script during production, Laith, his troubled godson, shows up at his door looking for help. Isaac knows if he turns his back on the boy, he'll never forgive himself. But how can he juggle his craft, his crush, and his godson's problems when he can't even take care of his cat?

  When Guillermo is gifted a bag of gold coins from the 1800s by his grandmother, he is also regaled with stories of the old west and his five times Great-Uncle Gustavo.
  
  
  Gustavo never thought his life would be anything but robbing, running, and fending off hateful comments about his heritage. Then he met the big blond wannabe cowboy with the beat-up hat and a sometimes too big smile. Guillermo and August's relationship is rather new, too. As events unfold in eerily similar fashion some 150 years apart, both couples face prejudice, serious injury, insecurities, drug issues, and a brush with the law, all of which test their love.
  
  
  Are the coins bad luck? Are they somehow magical? Does more money mean more problems? One pair is determined to survive several turns of the calendar page, while one man thinks it might be better to go their separate ways.

  Wyatt Calder is trapped -- in a rundown neighborhood, in a dead-end job, by the endless string of trouble his brother drags to their door -- and it seems he's destined to slowly fade away within the aging walls of Picket House, longing for his neighbor. That is, until his upstairs neighbor Abel Walters dies on the staircase just outside Wyatt's door.
   
  Saalik has spent most of his existence asleep and waiting for the next person to discover his bottle and claim their wishes. And the last four years playing prized possession to Abel Walters and spying on the downstairs neighbors. But he has a plan. And, like every plan worth planning, it has taken patience. But if life as a Jinn has taught Saalik nothing else, it's taught him that.
   
  When a break-in sends Wyatt out his second-story bedroom window and into his dead upstairs neighbor's apartment, he finds more than a place to hide. He discovers a magical solution to all his troubles.
   
  Or does he? Because really, when is life ever that simple?

  Riley Vaughn lives her life in perfect control -- sharp suits, long hours, and a heart locked tight after a childhood shaped by fear and the loss of her brother. But everything shifts when she meets Sarah Hoff, the soft-spoken florist whose warmth sneaks past every defense Riley has. What begins as quiet fascination grows into something neither of them expected ... until one mistake sends them spiraling apart.
  Riley tries to bury herself in work, but nothing feels right without Sarah. And Sarah, hurt but hopeful, can't quite let go of the woman who made her feel seen. When life pushes them back together, they're forced to confront the truth: healing takes courage, love takes trust, and sometimes the bravest thing you can do is let someone in.
