Summary
Alec grimaces, arms crossed over his chest. “I’m your guardian angel and I’m here to help you find love.”
“Go away,” Magnus says.
The grimace slides off Alec’s face and he blinks his wide doe eyes, startled.
He is lovely, Magnus thinks, for a creepy stranger that breaks into semi-innocent men’s apartments and sleeps next to them like a freak.
“Can’t do that,” Alec insists. “You asked, we answered. I’ve been assigned to stay here until you find eternal bliss in the loving arms of another.”
“So, you’re Cupid?”
“Do I look like a chubby baby to you?” Alec asks, deeply unimpressed.
---
Alec is Magnus' guardian angel, tasked with finding him true love. Things don't go as planned, but they never really do.

Summary
Ten years ago, Alec Lightwood left his small hometown for New York, determined to build a life far away from complicated family expectations. He never meant to return — not after everything that happened, and not after coming out changed everything between him and his parents.
But when his mother convinces him to visit for Christmas, he finds a town blanketed in snow, a family that’s learning to love better, and one impossibly charming coffee shop owner who throws his carefully constructed plans into chaos.
Magnus Bane is loud, kind, and dazzling in ways Alec doesn’t know how to handle — and somehow, he’s exactly what Alec needs. Between skating nights, quiet mornings, and snow-covered walks, Alec starts to realize that maybe coming home isn’t about the place at all. Maybe it’s about the person waiting there.
A story about second chances, found family, and the courage to stay when leaving has always been easier.- Language:

Summary
Magnus, a Shadowhunter freshly arrived at the New York Institute amidst the second rise of Valentine, has ulterior motives for his transfer— the elusive name on his wrist promising a soulmate who seems to have been wiped from all Clave records. Pulled into a chance encounter with a young warlock, the two of them get tangled up in the dark plot of one Iris Rouse. Working together to apprehend her and rescue Magnus’s friend, something more than a common interest draws them together. Fate, perhaps?

Summary
And then, because his mind has always been a traitor, he thinks about Camille, and how Magnus has known her forever, and then he thinks about how long forever is for him and how long it is for Magnus. In a moment of cold realization that should have been creeping up on him for weeks now, Alec realizes that their definitions are different.
Or five times Alec and Magnus don't talk about Magnus's immortality, and the one time they do.

Summary
Alec Lightwood is drowning quietly.
He has a life he barely lives, a job he barely holds onto, and a heart full of ghosts he refuses to name. Then Magnus Bane walks into his life with gentle hands, knowing eyes, and a voice that makes the world feel survivable again.
For the first time in a long time, Alec starts to believe he might not be beyond saving.
But healing is not simple. Love is not always enough. And some ghosts are harder to let go of than others.
