  ABOUT THIS EPISODE 
   
   
   
  Detective Malcolm Khalaji is at a loss. 
   
   
   
  For the second time in his life, he wasn't there when his lover needed him. And with Seong-Jae Yoon on leave pending an internal investigation, Malcolm doesn't know what to do with a shattered partner and boyfriend who's retreated from him into a dark and broken place. This time he's determined to be there no matter what Seong-Jae needs, even if it means taking time off from the pressures of their job to hold Seong-Jae through every moment of trauma, of guilt, of self-recrimination. 
   
   
   
  Until a frantic phone call from Seong-Jae's parents destroys any hope of peace. Because Seong-Jae's younger sister is missing—and there's only one place she would go. 
   
   
   
  Yet even if the desperate search breaks Seong-Jae's numbness, it's the warmth of family that brings him back from a black and dangerous edge—and shows Malcolm a side to Seong-Jae he never could have imagined. If each player in this game is a chess piece, then none other than Edmund Bishop is a pawn, sacrificed to save his queen. Yet is Lillienne Wellington really the one pulling the strings? 
   
   
   
  Or is someone else trying to eliminate Bishop for their own dire ends? 
   
   
   
  Contains mature themes.

  Someone -- or something -- is causing magical blizzards at Fairleigh Hall. The estate is suffering, and the Earl has requested assistance.
  
  
  Constable Kit Thompson, of Bow Street's Preternatural Division, isn't especially thrilled to be sent out to the country. At least the assignment gets him away from fashionable London society and his own unwanted celebrity after successfully solving a notorious case. Of course, he's now trapped at a country estate due to closed roads, snowstorms, and magic, but Kit's always liked solving puzzles. He's good at using empathic skills for investigations, and this is definitely a challenge. Besides, the Earl's younger brother is an irritating and delicious temptation, all blue eyes and muscles and boundless enthusiastic optimism. Kit wants to either shake sense into him or kiss him senseless -- and can't trust him, either, because if someone's genuinely sabotaging the weather, everyone's a suspect.
  
  
  Harry Arden, younger brother of the Earl of Fairleigh, has never met a Preternatural Division constable before, much less a famous and celebrated one. He wants to help. And he wants to make that attractive but cynical constable smile, at least once. But the estate hides a family secret, and Harry knows perfectly well Kit doesn't trust him ... and for good reason. Still, Harry offers to do what he can to assist with the investigation, and if that means spending more time with Kit, that's a bonus.
  
  
  When Harry and Kit end up caught by those magical storms, snowed in together at the old hunting lodge, they'll have to trust each other with their secrets ... and their hearts.

  Native American Raven is a successful architect and businessman. He's also an accomplished surfer who, out of fear, typically hides his orientation and is extremely discreet about any sexual liaisons. His haircut and clothing are those of a white man, and his employees and friends know nothing of his early life on a northern California Indian reservation.
  
  
  Now, six years after leaving the rez, a young man named Hunter literally surfs back into Raven's life. At first Raven doesn't recognize the guy who, as a boy, was his best friend, and also his first love. When he does finally recognize Hunter -- now penniless, drunk, and a lover of the "glam look" -- he sees him as a loser, an embarrassment, yet their reunion will shake some of Raven's most closely held beliefs.
  
  
  But is he up to the challenge? Will he release those stubborn beliefs and open himself to live life more fully and openly?

  As the headline-stealing captain of the Houston Hell Hounds, nineteen-year-old Alexander Price has one goal: the Stanley Cup. He's got the talent. He's got the drive. But he's also got an anxiety disorder and his therapist on speed dial. And, oh yeah, he's gay. And he's not willing to hide it anymore. 
   
   
   
  At eighteen, figure skater Elijah Rodriguez has already had his Olympic dreams crushed by an accident that left him with a seizure disorder and an existential crisis. Now a popular vlogger and freshman in college, Eli is trying to figure out what his new future will look like. Which is a little difficult because, oh yeah, he's dating Alexander Price. 
   
   
   
  Eli and Alex are happy. It's sort of a new state of being for both of them. But Eli is out, Alex isn't, and their very visible "friendship" is already raising eyebrows. They have a plan: Alex will make their relationship public at the end of the season, hopefully with a Stanley Cup in tow. But what happens when that plan is derailed by an overzealous fan who outs them—right before the Hell Hounds' playoff run?

  A wintery mountain writing retreat takes an unexpected twist when Trent's car slams into a tree and he's rescued by the hunky ranger. Seems unlikely that a lot of writing is going to get done, though perhaps a little romance is really what's needed.
  NOTE: This story appears in Rob Rosen's best-selling collection, Short Spurts.
