Summary
The 1960 baseball season is unraveling Wilhelm Larsson’s life. He can’t hit, his new teammates hate him, he’s homesick, and he’s living out of a suitcase. When the team forces him into a season-long interview stunt with a snobby reporter, he has no choice but to agree.
Simon Eriksson is not a sports reporter. He’s a grieving arts writer barely holding on, hiding behind his routine and a too-empty apartment, mourning a partner he was never able to be public about. The last thing he needs is to spend a season writing about New York’s obnoxious new shortstop in a stunt to get the struggling newspaper more readers.
Drawn together, they recognize something achingly familiar in each other’s collapse. But Simon has promised himself he will never be someone’s secret again, and Wilhelm cannot afford to be out in the career he’s in. In the end, they’ll have to decide whether love is worth the risk of losing everything.

Summary
Simon has exactly three rules when it comes to hookups: no personal details, no attachments, and never the same man twice.
The stranger he takes home from a club should be no exception, even if he is older, ridiculously hot, dangerously good at taking control and responsible for the best night Simon has ever had.
By morning, Simon is perfectly happy to never see him again.
Unfortunately, the universe seems to have other plans.
A few hours later, one familiar voice is enough to make Simon realise that forgetting last night might be considerably more difficult than expected.
Especially when the man attached to that voice is about to become impossible to avoid.
Simon still thinks it was a one-off.
Wille has other ideas, even if Simon is already becoming the kind of trouble he was never supposed to invite into a life complicated enough already.

Summary
Wille loved Simon all throughout their time at Hillerska, but never said anything. Never texted him about missing rowing practice. Never touched his leg at movie night. Never came out.
Over a decade later, Simon needs a last-minute place to stay in Stockholm, and Wille, who conveniently has a spare room, jumps at the opportunity to reconnect.
Maybe if he's lucky, he might just get a second chance with the boy of his dreams.

Summary
Simon hasn’t released music in a long time. Now he's lost his spark, and has no songs whatsoever. He can’t write. Nothing feels right.
Suddenly, a mysterious letter arrives at the studio with only his name on it. What if it carries the answers to all his problems? Who sent it, and why?
But more importantly, will he get more than one?

Summary
Wilhelm liked to blame it all on Felice whenever the question came up of how he had ended up in a drag show. It was her fault for sure – but it was Wille who’d gotten stuck with it. Because up on that stage, bathed in the flittery golden glow of the show club headlights, he was free. Free to be whoever he wanted to be. Free from his family’s overwhelming expectations, the crushing fear and the dark chasms of loneliness. Besides the show – there was nothing.
The stage was Simon’s dream. And that’s all it was, because it was a dream he couldn’t afford. The stage wasn’t for him. It was for the show girls and the artists. They were performing – he was surviving. Life had never been easy on him, and love had always been shit. And now on top of it all there was HIM – amber eyes and long legs in a dress and heels, trying to outrun the pain. And a heart too broken to be fixed.
-----------------------------
This is the story of a very broken, very hurt Wille, who hides his distress behind the face of a show girl, and a furious Simon, mad at fate and the world for bruising him over and over. When they collide, sparks fly high. But will they shine or will they burn?
