Jackson Rivera hates summer for three good reasons - three months of social isolation and boredom at his family's summer cottage, three months of dealing with the family who shares the cottage, and three months of the worst person he's ever met: Rory Harwood.
Rory has been the scourge of Jackson's summer for years, and, despite his attempted efforts to call a truce, Jackson's ready to break the guy's nose or kill him. That is, until he finds Rory's journal and begins reading it. And as he keeps reading, Jackson discovers way more than he bargained for, setting forth a series of events that'll change not just Jackson and Rory, but everyone around them, forever.
Let's just hope that Rory won't kill him by the time it's over.

It's Definitely Not All Mary Poppins
[A Slice-Of-Life LGBTQ+ Story about the Messiness of Life & Chosen Family]
Matthew Robinson's career as a teacher seemed to have stalled, yet when the winds in the East suddenly lands him in the employ as a nanny, Matthew realizes he's probably signed up for more than he bargained for.
~
All Matthew's ever wanted is to be a teacher, yet something from his past constantly looms over him, unwilling to let him pursue it. Finally ready to give up, he, to his surprise, lands a job as a nanny for a corporate dad and his two kids.
The house, historic as it may be, is ready to fall apart, which is now his responsibility; one kid is ready and willing to curse him, while the other is a literal ball of sunshine; and his employer is amazingly distant and critical; all of which he didn't remember reading in the job description. Matthew's suddenly very ready to jump ship, yet the longer he stays, the more he realizes they need him just as much as he needs them.
There's no flying umbrella, no carpet-bag, no spoonful of sugar, and no magic here. Oh, how Matthew wishes he had it as easy as Mary Poppins.

I'll Burn With You
[ A VERY Slow-Burn, Coming-of-Age LGBT+ Historical Romance about the Messiness of Life, Finding Home, and Yourself]
When Benjamin Price applies for the Hutchinson Academic Scholarship, he doesn't expect anything from it, a hopeless attempt to better himself. His life is in his town of Durmont - quiet, little Durmont - whether he wants it or not. Despite his hopes of escaping, he doesn't believe his abusive father will let him.
When John "Jack" Byrd Jr. finally pushes his father's patience to the limit, he's tasked with picking the recipients of the academic scholarship; he does so with angry ambivalence for having his wings clipped. His home in the city of Allisport - metropolitan, ever-building Allisport - is too small. He wants to see the world, unable to let the suffocation of expectations take him.
Neither of them expected their decisions to make their world burn.

Strangers In The Night
It's just 44 hours, really, and weddings are supposed to fly by. Right?
~
The moment he stepped onto the hotel property, Ian should've realized a mistake was made. He should've expected something when his ex-girlfriend's bridesmaid kept asking him for favors but wasn't paying him back. Even if he was more than happy to support an old friend, even to escape the menial architecture job he's been at since he and the now-bride broke up, the next three days are for her. He will not complain.
Robert - or Bo - is only there because his family made him. He doesn't want to be here. He's his sister's plus one, and, while he knows getting out of the house is probably good for him, Bo's willing and ready to wallow in his left-behind dreams of music and dance. He doesn't know anyone. He just hopes that he'll be able to talk to as few people as possible, find his room without getting lost, and be able to gorge himself on food.
It's just 44 hours, really, and weddings are supposed to fly by. Right?
