"Nate meets a stranger at a party, and in the span of seventeen minutes, his life changes.
Marcos meets a stranger at a party and wonders if the universe is laughing at him. His life has become a seemingly endless stream of bad days. Everything is a struggle, from his friendship with Max to the simple act of changing in the locker room after a baseball game. Stress and anxiety sit so heavily on his shoulders, he can barely function under the weight of it. Starting a relationship is the very last thing he wants or feels he deserves. Particularly when Nate—beautiful, gregarious, and kind Nate— could have anybody he wanted.
If there is one thing Marcos knows, it's this: Nate deserves someone far better than him.
But despite his best efforts to keep him away, Nate persists. He knows what he wants. He wants Marcos. He wants to coax him out of his shell, take him horseback riding, and treat him right. Seventeen minutes isn't enough for Nate and Marcos.

"Nico Mackenzie is angry and argumentative— in every way, he is the exact opposite of NHL goaltender Anthony Lawson.
Thrown together for a summer of coaching college hockey at South Carolina University, Anthony makes every effort to be friendly; Nico, on the other hand, seems intent on being infuriating and keeping the other man at arm's length.
When a causal relationship forms between the pair, they form an unsteady truce. The summer is finite, however, and when it comes to an end, a decision has to be made: do they end things as they are or try for more?

"Corwin Sanhover could almost convince himself that the night six years ago didn't happen. But when Nigel St. James is traded to South Carolina, it becomes a lot harder to keep their history in the past.

Is it possible to start fresh and build a relationship, or are some things—and people—better left in the past?

"Henri Vasel has perfected the art of people-pleasing.
He's a good student, a fair hockey player, and has a group of friends he'd do anything for. He's happy. Or, rather, as happy as he can be when he has a class with the one person he can't seem to please at South Carolina University.
Atlas Kaiser hates a lot of things, but right now he hates Henri Vasel the most. He doesn't want to have to stare at his perfect face or listen to his adorable German accent. He wants to be left alone. Unfortunately, they're partnered together for the semester so he'll have to grit his teeth and try to make it work.
Animosity morphs into a tentative friendship, which eventually leads to more. But while Atlas doesn't trust their budding relationship, Henri wants more.
