Klein, aber oho – das könnte Detective Nevin Ngs Motto sein. Auch ein harter Start ins Leben hat ihn nicht davon abhalten können, jetzt beim Portland Police Bureau seine Pflicht zu erfüllen und für seine Mitmenschen da zu sein, wann immer sie ihn brauchen. Er lässt sich nichts gefallen und ist nicht an einer Beziehung interessiert. Bis er zu einem alten Herrn gerufen wird, der von Unbekannten zusammengeschlagen wurde. Und Nevin dort den reichen und etwas steifen Vermieter des Opfers kennenlernt.

Der Bauunternehmer und Immobilienmanager Colin Westwood ist mit all dem aufgewachsen, wovon Nevin nie zu träumen gewagt hätte – Geld im Überfluss und einer Familie, die ihn liebt und unterstützt. Vielleicht sogar etwas zu viel, denn Colin litt als Kind an einer schweren Krankheit und seine Familie hat immer noch nicht begriffen, dass er mittlerweile ein erwachsener Mann ist, der sich um sich selbst kümmern kann. Colin ist sehr wohl an einer Beziehung interessiert, aber bisher ist daraus nie etwas geworden. Deshalb hat er beschlossen, sich in Zukunft vielleicht mit dem zufriedenzugeben, was ihm über den Weg läuft. Weniger Erwartungen, aber dafür mehr Aufregung. Bis er Zeuge eines – oder sogar mehrerer – fürchterlichen Verbrechen wird. Darauf war er nicht vorbereitet gewesen.

Obwohl sie unterschiedlicher nicht sein könnten, fliegen die Funken, wann immer Colin und Nevin sich begegnen. Aber Funken haben keine lange Lebenserwartung, vor allem nicht angesichts der wenigen Gemeinsamkeiten zwischen den beiden Männern und der immer brutaleren Machenschaften, mit denen sie konfrontiert werden. Die Frage ist, ob sie das Herz und die Kraft haben, diese Funken dauerhaft zum Leuchten zu bringen.

Alors que Cole Kenjiro McGinnis, ancien flic et détective privé, se remet doucement de la fusillade qui lui a arraché son amant, une enquête soi-disant de routine lui est assignée. Enquêter sur le prétendu suicide du fils d’un grand homme d’affaires Coréen se révèle rapidement loin d’être trivial, surtout lorsque cela le pousse sur la route de Kim Jae-Min, le cousin si séduisant du défunt.

Le cousin de Jae-Min avait un vilain petit secret, de ceux que Cole connaît sur le bout des doigts et que Jae-Min refoule encore devant sa famille. L’enquête conduit Cole d’un quartier privé raffiné au Dirty Kiss, un misérable club où l’homme riche satisfait discrètement des besoins dont sa famille conservatrice préfère ne pas entendre parler.

L’affaire dépose Cole McGinnis tout droit entre les bras de Jae-Min. Les jours passant, la mort de son cousin ressemble de moins en moins à un suicide et les feux des projecteurs se tournent peu à peu vers Jae-Min. La violence a déjà arraché à Cole un amant. Et pour lui, il est hors de question que cela se reproduise.

En tant que membre d’une équipe militaire, Crank doit garder la tête froide. Son unité en dépend. C’est pourquoi les rêves sensuels récurrents qu’il fait – ceux qui mettent en scène un requin métamorpheaux cheveux et aux yeux marron foncé – le déconcentrent totalement. D’autant plus que le métamorphe est un homme.

Vic, le métamorphe requin du Groenland, n’arrête pas de penser à Crank, un militaire humain qu’il a rencontré lorsque Vic a été appelé en tant que consultant. L’homme semble être un pilote aguerri, et il serait heureux de l’avoir à ses côtés, à plus d’un titre. Et c’est un problème, d’abord parce que Vic est amoureux de son petit ami, Saul, mais aussi parce que Crank est sarcastique, irrévérencieux… et hétérosexuel.

Le problème atteint son paroxysme lorsque Saul découvre que son compagnon rêve d’un autre homme que lui. Saul n’est pas heureux de cette découverte. Mais lorsque Crank commence à envahir ses rêves, il doit revoir ses sentiments. Sa vie peut en dépendre.

Mais l’exploration du lien grandissant entre eux trois devra attendre. La mission à venir exige toute l’attention de l’équipe. Ils sont sur le point de découvrir quelque chose d’énorme et ils ont gravement sous-estimé l’ennemi…

Er plant große Veränderungen - er hat sich selbst und den Freunden, die er mitgebracht hat, hohe Ziele gesetzt, um seine Herrschaft nach der seines Freundes Logan Church zu gestalten.

Während er sich mit einem heimwehkranken Crane, einem launischen Mikhail, einem peitschenschwingenden Taj, Dienern mit Mordgedanken, einem Ex sowie einem Gefährten auf einer gefährlichen Mission herumschlägt, steht er mit der Frage, wie er mit seiner neuen Rolle umgehen soll, alleine da. Außerdem muss er herausfinden, wie er eine Verschwörung zerschlagen kann. Und all das, während er sich immer mehr in einen Mann verliebt, der - zum ersten Mal in Domins Leben - diese Gefühle auch erwidert.

Ob Domin bereit ist oder nicht, das Schicksal hält eine Lektion für ihn bereit: Die Gefahren von innen sind mindestens genauso bedrohlich wie die von außen.

When Liam Belanger gets a professional tryout with the Miami Caimans, he’s hoping to land a roster spot that’ll keep him from bussing tables. If he can make the team and score a tryout in bed with Russ Lyons, the veteran defenseman who’s appointed himself Liam’s mentor, that would be the icing on the sweet hockey cake.

Living life by a strict set of rules has worked out well for Russ. He has a great career, great friends, and a great family, even if they do keep setting him up with hometown honey traps. But he can’t stop time, and now, despite all his planning, he’s looking at his last year with the Caimans before the uncertainty of free agency. Maybe that’s why he finds sunny, free-spirited Liam so attractive. 

He’s still not going to sleep with his rookie.

Probably.

Liam starts the season in the minors, but it’s not long before he gets a shot at the Big Show. His year is shaping up to be a dream come true—even before Russ picks up on Liam’s passes and proves defensemen can score too.
