    Summary

    James’s life is pathetic. He doesn’t have adrenaline to it until he accidentally steps into a club owned by Regulus Black (his ex-boyfriend), Barty Crouch Jr. (his deepest fantasy), and Evan Rosier (his first kiss). One night changes everything as James is pulled into a chaotic, intoxicating whirlwind of desire, teasing, and unexpected intimacy. What starts as curiosity quickly turns into surrender, leaving James questioning everything he thought he knew about pleasure, trust, and belonging.

    Summary

    Regulus has it all figured out. He keeps men on a rotating roster so none can get too close, works nights as a dancer to make the most of his chronic insomnia, and pushes everything he doesn’t want to remember about the past ten years into the recesses of his mind. It’s easier to pretend none of it ever happened.

    But when James Potter crashes into Regulus’ life with his fancy sports car, wealth beyond measure, and devil’s smile, it marks a switch in the natural order of things. James is a client; Regulus isn’t allowed to fall in love with him. Except James is the first man in a long time who can see past Regulus’ carefully constructed façade, and who could ever resist the temptation of being known?

    Or, this is a story about identity, addiction, self-expression, and love in all of the varying shapes they can take.

    Summary

    “Steve,” the Captain said, hand over his chest.

    Tony licked his lips. Was he supposed to give his name, or remain silent until he was asked a direct question? The Captain--Steve, apparently--already knew his name, he had to, it had been included on the settlement he and Stane had signed. Was this a test? Time was passing and Steve was still waiting with his hand on his chest but Tony had to figure out the right answer fast or when Steve moved he might--

    “Tony,” he blurted.

    “Tony,” Steve repeated. He hadn’t come any closer. He said something short that might have been pleased to meet you or you look good on your knees. Tony had no way of knowing and he wasn’t going to risk echoing it. He kept quiet. See, Howard? I do know how to shut up when my life depends on it.
