  He wasn't just my best friend. He was arrogant. Tormented. Reckless. I shouldn't have wanted him, but I did. I still want him. 
   
  Now, five years after a drunken mistake of a night, he's back. And something has changed. Dark under-eye circles mar his pretty face, and his mouth no longer smirks as readily as before.I should know better than to trust him with my heart again, but I can't forget how he breathed life into me back when we were kids. His darkness merged with mine and became something else. 
   
  Something brighter.We clicked together like two jagged, leftover puzzle pieces. My best friend. My partner in crime. My ride-or-die.As he spirals further into self-destruction, I need to find a way to protect him from his harrowing past. Before it breaks us both.

  Shawn Scott thrives in predictability. As director of Descriptive Statistics, numbers are her world, but people? They're a puzzle. So, collaborating with a British archaeologist is an incongruous with her routine as a desert oasis in the Arctic. 
   
   
   
  But when a new site is temporarily exposed in Alaska, Kelly and Shawn unite, racing against time to claim the artifacts. Amidst the treacherous terrain and chilling uncertainties, they grapple not only with the elements but with the awakening of emotions neither anticipated. 
   
   
   
  As danger looms, will they unearth more than artifacts or will the forces that brought them together ultimately tear them apart?

  Persephone's Pancreas draws us skin to skin with chronic pain...sensory detail, myth and the everyday, to find the things needed to survive the liminal and lost zones of a long ‘sick girl summer.’- Aimee-Jane Anderson-O’Connor

  "Why would my boss want someone as young and broken as me for his boy? But the way he looks at me . . . " 
   
   
   
  Levi has seen more life than anyone his age should have. He's responsible for more than anyone knows. The weight on his shoulders is crippling, but he'd do anything for his family. 
   
   
   
  When Christian hired Levi, all he saw was a young man with a wound on his face so recent that it hadn't healed yet and desperation in his eyes. He didn't know his story, but he didn't need to. One of the reasons he'd opened The Tap Tavern was to give people who needed a safe place to land a job—a home away from home. 
   
   
   
  Christian swore to himself he'd never date an employee, but then he's never had one quite like Levi. Levi never planned to trust anyone to help him carry his load, least of all a marshmallow of a Daddy. When unfortunate events force these two men to share a house, will they be able to resist what's been brewing between them right there under the surface?
