Sinopse

At his older sister Didi's request, Pete Garhart makes a reluctant trip from Miami to small-town Ohio for his father's funeral. Beyond the sun, he leaves little else behind. Alcohol has drained any momentum from his culinary career as a chef, and he's been reduced to line cook at Applebee's. His string of failed relationships have begun to resemble a line-up of wooden soldiers, all with great guns and the same fade haircut. And, now in his late 40's, he's painfully aware of enroaching invisibility in his own community.


Back in his hometown, he's battered by flashbacks of an anxious adolescence and his father's rejection of a queer son, yet also finds the house he grew up in renovated and the town itself shorn of other memories. But bigger revelations are yet to come, including an unexpected hot tub reunion with a straight high school crush and a road trip back to Florida with Vantage Blue-loving Didi. She has a few things she wants to get off her chest about their own sibling alienation, but the surprise may be hers when Pete opens a floodgate of his own admissions.

    Five years before, Aeschylus dragged his battered body home after a lifetime of service in Aegina's navy. He'd hoped for a place to curl up and forget. Instead, he'd found himself the city guard's captain and in the middle of a political firefight with Aegina's rival and nearest neighbor, Athens.  
    Aeschylus had stopped the municipal kidnappings and made a berth for himself. A loveless and monotonous berth. 
    No one with any sense would join the guard. Young hoplites itching for glory and gold joined the Marines or were hired as mercenaries. There was always a war somewhere. Aeschylus needed a decent guardsman. Someone who understood that everyone deserved the same level of protection. 
    Aeschylus knew prayer was as dangerous as poking a hydra with a stick, but he was out of options. Aeschylus asked Ares, the god of war, to send him an old hoplite weary of fighting.  
    Ares sent him Thêritas of Thrace. A young soldier on a divine labor. A handsome young soldier eager to learn what he could from Aeschylus. Gods sent men on labors to punish or prepare them for a glorious death. Aeschylus told himself there was no reason to borrow sorrows that hadn't yet happened. 
    Mysteries were piling up.  
    It would be up to Aeschylus and his appealing young guardsman to sort the mysteries from the genuine miracles and do their best to ensure Aegina didn't go straight to Tartarus. 
    Aeschylus hadn't asked for a miracle. But as a result of his prayer, he got the whole miraculous ball of wax.

    A love story for the ages! An intimate confession! An epic quest! And happily ever after on the horizon ...
    
    
    Jason Mirelli loves Colby Kent. And Colby loves him. They've told the world. And Colby's recovered from injury, so they're back at work and back on set. Jason just might have everything he's ever dreamed of, with a serious leading role, an epic love story, and Colby safe and happy in his arms -- but they only have two weeks of filming to go. He's afraid of the dream falling apart, and he knows Colby has a secret to confess -- one that could transform both the ending of their movie and their future together.
    
    
    Colby never got around to telling Jason his final secret before his accident on set. Now that he's recovered, he plans to -- he wants to share his writing and his silent script doctor work with the man he loves. Besides, he's rewritten this script to give their characters a proper happy ending. But he's nervous about making changes to a classic novel, and he wants the author's approval.
    
    
    Colby's hoping to seek out the famously reclusive author in question, but first he'll need to trust Jason with this last piece of himself. If he can, he and Jason might finally find their happily-ever-after both on screen and off -- for their characters and for themselves.

    Their leap of faith could unleash magic ... or plunge them into darkness.
    
    
    Henry Thorn has worked at Larkin's since graduating high school. He likes it -- especially when he can use his secret skill of hiding inside shadows so his boss can't find them. Without that talent, he would never had survived growing up different.
    
    
    When a hire enters the store, Henry's other latent talent kicks in. He can smell an emotional response even before he lays eyes on the redhead.
    
    
    Jamey Currey came out, and his conservative parents promptly kicked him out. He, too, is different -- he senses Henry's attraction the moment they met. The first time they kiss, torrential rains fall from skies split by lightning.
    
    
    Their kiss also awakens the Watchers, diabolical hunters who will stop at nothing -- even extermination -- to keep magic suppressed. With the help of a friendly coven of friendly witches, the boys embark on a quest to discover an ancient key to restoring magic to the world, and to understand mysteries of their own hearts.
    
    
    The question is, will this quest cost them their lives?
