Summary

When State Trooper Travis Kinslow is injured right before Thanksgiving, the only positive is that for once he won't be working during the holidays. Since he has no family, Travis was absorbed into his best friend Joe's, and he considers them as good as his own. Everyone except Joe's brother Noah. Travis has been in love with the younger man for much of his life, but he's always kept his distance.
As an ER nurse, Noah is a caretaker by nature. When his brother's best friend is hurt, he's happy to help Travis while he heals. He's only ever allowed himself to think of Travis as the next best thing to an older brother, but by the light of the Christmas tree, Noah finally sees Travis's true feelings. And in that moment, everything changes. 
When faced with opposition and a Christmas nothing like they imagined, will their hopes for the future be enough to carry them through?

But what begins as a simple outing becomes something strange and transformative, a surreal encounter that forces both women to confront the distance between them. As illusion and emotion blur, they find the truth of love might lie not in perfection, but in rediscovering the green light that first brought them together.

    After recording the last interview of a month-long media extravaganza orchestrated by the brass, NYPD Detectives Chiara Corelli and P. J. Parker are hoping for time out of the spotlight working cold cases and/or solving low profile murders. But the brutal murder of Alessandra Moreau, a singer on track to becoming a superstar, in the living room of New York State Senator Leigh Drayman, a trans woman, is anything but. 
     
     
     
    Besides Drayman, only Moreau's twin sister and her wife knew she was a trans woman, so Corelli and Parker focus their attention on three suspects—the agent/manager stealing from her, a man from her attorney's office who assaulted her, and H, a rejected lover who she fears. 
     
     
     
    And when they find thirteen trans women murdered in exactly the manner as Moreau in just over two years, their focus changes and they enlist the senator's help to get the NYPD to set up a task force. 
     
     
     
    With the murder of two more trans women in New York City, the killer seems to be taunting them. But they are no closer to finding him then they were after Moreau was murdered. 
     
     
     
    As they dig deeper into those early murders, they eliminate suspects and begin to focus on the one with motive, means, and opportunity.

    Portia Sebring was born into a family that's considered royalty in the intelligence community, and the fact that she's a woman doesn't preclude her from joining the "family business." A linguistic genius, she's recruited by her older brother to decipher Russian codes for the Venona Project. While at Arlington Hall, she meets Nigel Mann, a CIA officer known as Mr. Freeze, who's been vetted to the NSA. Unbeknownst to Portia, her father is behind the meeting. Rumor has it that Portia, called the ice princess, is also a lesbian, and at this time in America -- the late '50s -- it could negate any veracity to the codes she deciphers. A match with an equally cold man who won't distract her from her work seems the ideal solution in her father's eyes.
    Things don't go quite according to plan, as both Portia and Nigel develop strong feelings for each other. They marry and eventually start a family. However, the lifetime together they anticipate is cut short when Nigel's jet crashes on New Year's Day, 1978. Devastated, but with a thirteen-year-old son depending on her, Portia has no choice but to go on after Nigel's death. 
    When Quinton, her son, is approached to join the US Equestrian Team for the 1980 Summer Olympics, she's pleased and proud, but those plans are dashed due to the government's boycott of the Games. To distract him, Portia takes him to France on a wine-buying trip, and it's there that Quinton first feels an attraction for someone of his own sex. Portia, a wise mother, is aware, but since she herself had a same-sex affair in her early twenties, she's very accepting of this. 
    Along with Gregor, her trusted bodyguard and devoted family friend, she watches as Quinton follows in his father's and her footsteps in the "family business," and finally finds a partner worthy of him, WBIS agent Mark Vincent. She's happy for them, but sure that she won't love again, since Sebrings have their "one" and she's lost hers, but is she right?
