  *Read by Alan Cumming himself* 
  NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER 
  In his unique and engaging voice, the acclaimed actor of stage and screen shares the emotional story of his complicated relationship with his father and the deeply buried family secrets that shaped his life and career. 
  A beloved star of stage, television, and film—“one of the most fun people in show business” (Time magazine)—Alan Cumming is a successful artist whose diversity and fearlessness is unparalleled. His success masks a painful childhood growing up under the heavy rule of an emotionally and physically abusive father—a relationship that tormented him long into adulthood. 
  When television producers in the UK approached him to appear on a popular celebrity genealogy show in 2010, Alan enthusiastically agreed. He hoped the show would solve a family mystery involving his maternal grandfather, a celebrated WWII hero who disappeared in the Far East. But as the truth of his family ancestors revealed itself, Alan learned far more than he bargained for about himself, his past, and his own father. 
  With ribald humor, wit, and incredible insight, Alan seamlessly moves back and forth in time, integrating stories from his childhood in Scotland, his experiences today as a film, television, and theater star, and the shocking revelations uncovered while investigating his family’s past. Equal parts memoir, family mystery, and tale of resilience, Not My Father’s Son is at times suspenseful, deeply moving, and wickedly funny—sure to make readers laugh even as it breaks their hearts.

  Dear You, 
  Welcome to your love letter. A letter signed to the secrets and celebrations that brought you here. The found family, and the lost innocence, and the wanderlust, and the returning home again in ways you never thought possible. Not to mention the whiskey and the sobriety and the streetlights and the sweet sleepless nights you danced through on your way to this moment. Welcome to the love letter to your leaving and arriving again. Here.     
  Letter to the Shooting Stars Among Us is a concoction of music and poetry that pushes the boundaries of genre and expectation. Flowing from spoken word poetry and hip-hop roots, it’s a personal and powerful testament to the beauty and heartbreak of wising up and self-discovery. Examining everything from breakups, illness, crustaceans, immigration, supernovas, God, tomatoes, seedy motels, and all those other memories you locked up somewhere safe, this book is a reminder to love deeply, live boldly, and seek beauty in unconventional spaces.   
  Music by Blake Clawson unless otherwise stated. The music for tracks 2, 9, and 14 composed by Jessie Smith. The music for track 7 composed by Dylan Thomas Doyle.

  Bridges Barfield is a man of rigid standards and stern demeanor. He finds it hard to relax and accept new things, though he gives it his best. He's still recovering from the end of a bad relationship, but he's not letting it stop him from searching for love. Then he meets Trenton LeDoux and they hit it off, despite their differences. Meaning, Trenton's magenta hair, lip ring, and free spirit.
  Trenton is forthright, refreshing, and not afraid to go after what he wants. But the fact that he can't seem to get past his grief and possible guilt over his husband's death makes it difficult to move forward. It doesn't help that Bridges suffers from foot-in-mouth syndrome, which earns him a slap across the face when he says the wrong thing to Trenton. Which is often. 
  When they finally get beyond the angry words, will their union be truly heartfelt?

  Namid 
  I may not know where I come from, or who I am, but I’ve done my best to build a life for myself. I know a handful of people in town, I have a nice place to live, and I enjoy my job. I look just like everyone else. But I don’t feel like everyone else, because I feel…everything. 
  The emotions of others get tangled with my own as they race through my heart and sink into my soul. 
  They set my nerves on fire and rearrange my cells and spread across my skin until they consume me. 
  Jayce 
  I don’t know how to explain what it’s like to lose half of your soul, to fall into grief so dark and relentless that you lose yourself. 
  That’s what it feels like I’ve lost. Half of my soul. 
  I don’t want to do this. 
  I don’t want to try to fill in the gaps. 
  I don’t want to walk into rooms that are populated by memories. 
  I don’t want to hear the voice of a ghost echoing in my head. 
  When the eccentric, introverted man who was found on the side of the road without any memories a decade ago takes pity on me and offers his help, for some reason, I find myself unable to say no. 
  Even though I don't know him, when he's standing by my side, for one brief moment, I forget to hurt. 
  Beneath the Indigo Sky is a 75000 word, MM, slow burn, contemporary romance filled with angst, grief, found family, longing, forests, road trips, stargazing, sweet dates, and of course a HEA. There are also minor paranormal elements that are left deliberately open to reader interpretation.
