Synopsis

Sidebars are stories set in the Spy vs. Spook/Mann of My Dreams universe. The stories in this book are told from three different points of view: William Matheson's, covering the majority of the events from 2002 to 2009, including his work at the WBIS and his relationship with Theo Bascopolis, a former rent boy.
Contains the stories:

Is It You?: Wills meets Theo Bascopolis and wonders if he could be the one.

Sway: Wills goes along with Theo's assumption that he can't dance.

This Simple Phrase: Wills and Theo spend their first Christmas together.

Goodbye to Love: Wills returns home to the apartment he shares with Theo to find his lover has left him. Wills intends to discover why.

To Be Loved: Wills has asked Theo to marry him, and they celebrate their first Easter as engaged men in Cambridge with Wills's family.

P.S. I Love You: Wills and Theo get married and welcome a new addition to their little family.

Dedicated to the One I Love: In 2004, same-sex marriage becomes legal in Massachusetts. For their first anniversary, Wills decides to take advantage of that and takes Theo to Cambridge so they can be legally married.

Happy Anniversary, Baby Redux: It's Mark and Quinn's anniversary, and Mark muses about how they got there.

The Very Best Christmas Ever (So Far): Pat Mulcahy, aka the Antichrist, has turned his life around and now lives with the Mathesons. On the trip to Washington, he meets someone who just might make this the best Christmas ever for him.

When Complications Arrive at Your Door: This is the missing epilogue from Complications. Rebecca Goddard, daughter of the former WBIS doctor, has decided making herself scarce after Mark Vincent discovered her part in the events that went down in 2004 is a good idea. Five years later, she's no longer looking over her shoulder, but maybe she should be.

Trick or Treat: It's Halloween, and Wills and Theo take their children trick or treating.

She gave up the life of a writer, actress, and chose to settle in a small, southern town where she pretends to be someone she's not.

When she spends a weekend in New York with her old girlfriend, Pilar, to ostensibly pitch her television script to an executive producer, Sharon discovers everything she's been missing, a sense of purpose, love, adventure ... and the woman she used to be.

The Bloodsucker Blues

Aundrea Singer

While jogging late at night to burn off his rage at his cheating boyfriend, Brandon Griffin meets a beautiful, fragile young man named Yannick. Yannick is foreign, enigmatic, and terribly ill, and Brandon is immediately drawn to him. The two men have an instant, irresistible attraction, but Yannick is committed to a man he no longer loves, but insists he can't leave.


What Brandon has no way of knowing is Yannick's a vampire. And Lee, who once hunted vampires but chose to save him, is surely the only person who would ever accept what Yannick is. Yannick can't leave Lee, because the world outside isn't safe for his kind, especially now that human blood mysteriously no longer sustains him. Yannick is also restrained by his fear of making Lee angry, since Lee is dangerously possessive, and Yannick too weak to resist his punishment.


Yannick knows he can't risk seeing Brandon again, just like Brandon knows he shouldn't come between Yannick and Lee. But they've already fallen too far and too deep to be capable of letting go.


Unfortunately, it isn't just this reckless attraction they have in common. Brandon's ex Chad is just as possessive as Lee, and just as dangerous. And on one violent Texas night, Yannick and Brandon will be forced to save each other, or die before they can have any kind of relationship. Even if it means Brandon discovers Yannick's secret.

The Impossible

For thousands of years, he has to watch as most of his charges get their happily ever after. Then he encounters Dion Angelos during one of his assignments, and he senses a spark between them.
 
Dion owns Angelos Funeral Home. He enjoys working on dead bodies because he can keep his interaction with the living down to a bare minimum. People can be stupid and irritating. However, he doesn't mind when they return as spirits because he enjoys most of their conversations. Then he encounters an ancient demon who seems hell-bent on killing him.
 
Can Galen and Dion form a relationship while battling against the ancient demon?

Consorting with the King

C. Quince

Prince Francis of Sachs-Stormburg has two objectives. One: join the long line of suitors vying to become King Omar's next gentleman consort. Two: find out anything he can about the natural energy powering his kingdom, especially the fabled solar power which has him called the Solar Sultan across Europe.
Francis arrives at King Omar's palace in Istanbul, and discovers much to his horror that all suitors must compete in a tournament of skills to win the king's favour. King Omar, meanwhile, is nowhere to be seen.
When Francis takes refuge from the competition in the palace gardens, he meets a handsome man tending to the palace cats. Francis and the stranger strike up a friendship, which quickly develops into something more. He senses his new companion is hiding something, but Francis himself has not divulged who he truly is, either.
As their romance unfolds, Francis has to choose between his royal duty and abandoning it entirely to explore this new relationship. But perhaps not all is lost, when it is revealed who the stranger really is ...

The Falcon and the Foe

A.J. Truman

Two single dads. One huge grudge. And one tiny tent. 
It’s hard enough balancing two jobs with raising my son solo. Forget dating. I barely have time for laundry. 
But when my son’s scouting troop The Falcons needed a co-scout leader, I couldn’t say no. There’s just one ginormous problem: the other scout leader Russ. 
To all other parents, he’s #DadGoals, Mr. Sexy Widower who lords over the drop off line. 
To me? He’s the bane of my picket-fenced existence - stuck up, anal (not in the fun way), and definitely the person who got me booted from the Parent Teacher Association. I can’t let him wrest control of The Falcons and have history repeat itself - no matter how hot he looks in his khaki uniform. 
Thing is, the more we work together, the more I glimpse the caring man lurking under the cold exterior. Maybe he isn’t the completely wretched human being I thought. 
We’d both sworn off romance to focus on fatherhood, and nothing’s going to change that, not even sharing a too-small tent in the wilderness. 
Right? 
The Falcon and the Foe is an MM enemies-to-lovers romance containing hot single dads, sizzling snarky banter, pitched tent puns, skinny dipping, and an HEA. It's the first in the Single Dads Club series, but can be read as a standalone.
