    Summary

    An American AU—As a pastor’s kid in the claustrophobic midwestern town of Millhaven, fifteen-year-old Charlie Spring is a master of camouflage. He wears the mask of the perfect, polite son to survive the rigid expectations of Grace Hill Methodist church, entirely convinced that his identity makes him a problem to be solved.

    Then an inescapable homeroom seating chart drops a new kid—an intriguing transplant from big city Chicago—into the desk right next to him. Impossibly warm and devoid of cruelty, Nick’s effortless kindness begins to breach Charlie’s carefully constructed defenses, forcing him to face a terrifying question: What happens when the person you’re pretending to be can no longer hide the person you actually are?

    Summary

    Nick and Charlie (and co) enter the Bake Off tent with varying amounts of success and chaos and plenty of baking. But, whether they win or not, both Charlie and Nick might just go home with more than a spot for Star Baker...

    Essentially just a very self-indulgent Great British Bake Off AU because I'm watching the latest season.

    Summary

    Looking at Nick Nelson, you’d never know he was a virgin. Like, who is possibly a virgin at his age?!

    Certainly not the captain of the rugby club. Definitely not the bloke doorstopped by every divorcee mother at the school gates. And absolutely not the guy raking in sexual advances at queer bars every weekend.

    But enough was enough. Nick's birthday was in a few days, and he was determined to lose his virginity with a bang.

    Forty of them actually.

    Nick Nelson was changing his sexual status from forty-year-old virgin to forty-year-old slut.

    Summary

    “Want what?” Joe dared to ask.

    He hadn’t been misreading it. Something had shifted this time. Maybe it was divine timing, but he had a feeling they were standing on a ledge they wouldn’t come back from if they jumped it together.

    “To ruin the friendship,” Kit breathed.

    It had come out so quietly that Joe almost wondered if he’d hallucinated it. But then he tugged Kit’s hips flush against his, and their noses brushed. They were already on the other side of the line Joe feared crossing.

    “Fuck it,” Joe said.

    Summary

    After a devastating fire takes everything from him, Charlie is forced to move to Truham to live with his grandmother. Burdened by grief and the weight of starting over, the last thing he expects to find is his soulmate.

    From the moment their eyes meet, Charlie feels something shift. A spark. A pull. Something that feels bigger than the both of them. But Nick and his friends are hiding secrets, and Charlie is about to become part of a world he never knew existed.

    As their bond deepens, so does the mystery surrounding them. Sparks fly. Leaves float. The past refuses to stay buried. And the magic tying Nick and Charlie together may be the only thing that can save them—or tear them apart.
