Synopsis

A novel about reincarnation and love
Christmas, 1983: Robert is a young man tending to his soul mate Keith, who is dying from AIDS. Robert tries valiantly to make this a special Christmas, but loses the fight late Christmas night. 
Christmas, 2007: Robert ventures out and finds a young girl about to fling herself into the waters of Lake Michigan. He rescues her, and the two form a bond forged from familiarity, and even love. Neither understands it, since Jess is a lesbian and Robert is gay. But there's more ... 
Jess begins having strange dreams, reliving key moments she couldn't know about in Keith and Robert's life. They begin to wonder if their feelings might be rooted in something much more mystical than a savior/victim relationship. 
As the two move toward each other, Robert's younger lover Ethan plots the unthinkable. His crystal meth-addled mind becomes convinced there's only one way to save himself: Robert's destruction. 
There's a murder attempt ... salvation ... redemption ... 
And a new love is born.

    Madison Masters is everything I want to be. 
     
     
     
    He's confident, good-looking, and beyond popular. Wherever he appears, he's the center of attention. It's his natural charisma that pulls every gaze to him. Mine especially. I have been in love with Madison since the moment I met him. The only trouble is he has no clue that I exist. And even if he knew me, it would never work. 
     
     
     
    I'm the father of a little troublemaker, the happiest accident of my life, and Madison is not family material. I know his secret. I know where his popularity and money come from. I know what he does in hotel rooms when cameras are on and when the show begins. 
     
     
     
    We can never be together. We are worlds apart. 
     
     
     
    But when Madison Masters urgently needs a nice, anonymous boyfriend for an evening, there's no better choice than invisible old me. And as the night of work turns into the most magical date of my life, I soon forget we're only pretending. 
     
     
     
    If only my stupid heart wouldn't beat so fast. If only Madison weren't so convincing. If only we didn't follow this fantasy all the way to his hotel room. If only he didn't ruin everyone else for me in a single night of unrestrained passion . . .  
     
     
     
    Contains mature themes.

    Peter Killian, curator at Los Angeles’s Constantine House, wakes in a hospital with a concussion, a police guard… and no memory of how he got there. 
    According to the LAPD, he’s the prime suspect in the theft of a priceless Tenth Century Chinese sculpture. 
    Peter knows one thing with absolute certainty: he’s not a thief. Unfortunately, that conviction isn’t shared by Detective Mike Griffin — a sharp-eyed, hard-edged cop who seems infuriatingly determined to see Peter arrested. 
    As the evidence mounts and Peter’s missing hours refuse to resurface, reality becomes even more unsettling. Because threaded through his fractured thoughts are vivid dreams of an unseen lover — intimate, haunting… and disturbingly reminiscent of Griffin himself. 
    Someone is lying. 
     Someone is manipulating the truth. 
    And Peter can’t trust his memory — or his heart.

    What’s worse than being snowed in with your ex? Literally nothing. 
    Initially, the only thing Marshall and Marshall had in common was a name. Marshall (aka Data) lived his life around spreadsheets, while Marshall (aka Marsh) was an F5 tornado of chaos. Yet for eight years, they were madly in love. Until Marsh abruptly ended things with a half-baked excuse. 
    Six months later, Data gets a text from Marsh out of the blue: They need to clean out their cabin in Maine and sell it ASAP. He can make it through one more weekend with the man who broke his heart. 
    Marsh loved adding squiggles to the straight lines of his boyfriend. If only he could’ve lived up to the potential Data saw in him. If only he didn’t feel like he was one big miscalculation on Data’s ledger. Saying goodbye to Marshmallow Mountain will be the final tie to sever, even though he still pines for his number-crunching teddy bear. 
    But when a massive snowstorm traps them in their small cabin for days, they’re forced to confront hard truths about their breakup…as well as resist the sweltering heat raging between them. 
    These boys might be headed for a second act, but only if they can make it off Marshmallow Mountain.

    As disaster befalls the spacecraft and planet Earth falls apart, Silas and Lin's love is tested to the limit.
