Presidential elections may be over, but Sam and Blake are still a work in progress. The last fourteen months of Sam's life have been a crazy ride that was supposed to by over by now. It isn't. While the presidential elections came and went, things don't seem to be slowing down, despite his efforts. And Blake is a patient man, but even he has his limits. Although old habits die hard, they can be conquered, and when the new realizations occur, it's a chance for Sam and Blake to decide how to move forward and navigate the relationship down the road. It's no Christmas miracle, but it's theirs and they're not willing to back down.

After a stint of working on a presidential campaign, Adam Davis is back where he belongs – writing for his political commentary blog, DC College. Life is good. He is comfortable. He is… not prepared to see Michael walking back into his life. As they meet again, can they put their past behind them for good or are there some things that were never meant to end?

Openly gay US senator and a man who has spent all his life in the closet… What can go wrong? Senator Pascal Tirado’s last relationship ended years ago and he blames his busy schedule for the lack of dates ever since. His pull towards Jeremy is unmistakable, though, so when he discovers it’s mutual, Pascal wants to try to make it work. Whatever “it” is. He thinks he knows what he’s getting himself into but his patience will be stretched to the limits. Jeremy Callan is so deep in the closet that even people closest to him have no idea he’s gay. It has suited him all his life—in and out of the Corps—and he’s set in his ways even once he begins a new chapter in DC. But then he starts sleeping with Pascal, and things get…complicated. \\\* This book was previously published by MLR Press. The story was edited and polished.

Ethan Krasinsky is a Supreme Court Justice candidate—the first judge president Galloway could put on the bench. Everyone expected resistance, but no one expected death threats. Cue Diego Martinez, bodyguard extraordinaire. He may like easy and quick in his private life, but is very serious about his work, whether his clients like it or not. When the two of them meet, it looks like the sparks will fly—just not necessarily the good kind. With time, they realize they may actually fit together well, but everything seems to be stacked against them—the professional boundaries, the age difference, cranky family members… And that’s not counting those death threats.
