    Summary

    Jean and Neil have been a package deal since middle school—best friends, practically family, and now roommates starting their first year of college together. Palmetto wasn’t their first choice, but Renee is there, and it’s close enough to a fresh start.

    With their own apartment and no parents in sight, things should finally be simple.

    What they don’t expect is for their across-the-hall neighbors to be four of the most emotionally repressed disasters imaginable. And they’re definitely not expecting to catch feelings before midterms.

    Kevin has never been great with emotions, but something about Jean throws him completely off balance. Jean, meanwhile, is already half in love—until the Minyard twins won’t shut up about Kevin’s ex, and he assumes there’s no chance.

    Andrew doesn’t do feelings—until Neil walks in like a glitch in the system, and one look is all it takes for Andrew to know he’s doomed.

    Neil? He is just confused.

    And through it all, no one questions how close Jean and Neil are. Why would they? They’ve always been like this.

    Except now?
    Everyone assumes they’re dating.
    Which would be laughable—if it weren’t starting to ruin literally everything.

    Summary

    Neil should have been more careful. He should have understood that just because he was Neil Josten and not Nathaniel didn’t mean that everyone had forgotten who his father was. He was reminded every day of history he’d much rather forget when he looked in the mirror. He was learning not to hate his eyes, but it had become clear that not everyone shared that sentiment.

    Someone—Neil wasn’t sure who, and frankly, it didn’t matter—retaliated for the death of his father. In a way, Neil supposed his father's death was his own fault. It was supposed to be an evening run, a few miles just to clear his head. He’d been having nightmares, and he decided that this was the healthiest way to process all the information his brain was feeding him. He didn’t expect the evening to turn red with his own blood. It did, though, and Neil emerged with another bullet wound, a few more scars, but most importantly, no more death on his hands.

    He ended up at Wymack's door, banging on it with the hand that wasn't busy stopping blood from exiting his shoulder. "Coach?"

    Summary

    Neil Josten is pretty sure that trying to live a "normal" life is hard enough without unwittingly becoming the tutor to a guy whose twin brother is a) horribly antagonistic to him for tutoring said twin brother, b) apparently notorious on-campus for sleeping with anyone once, and c) the first person to make him Google search, "Want to somehow kiss and punch someone at the same time?"

    Summary

    Millport is a horrible, dry as fuck little town in the vast nothingness of the dust hole that is Arizona, and Andrew hates it with vigor.

    He has been tracking a horde of Manticores for weeks now, and isn’t that something? A half-blood having to chase after the monsters. He is starting to feel like one of Renee’s hunters, when Andrew is pretty sure the nasty scorpion-cats should want to kill him more then he wants to kill them.

     

    Or, Andrew expected to find all sorts of things on his first quest. He didn’t expect a twitchy, blue-eyed half-blood with monsters on his heels, and he surely didn’t expect to fall in love with him.
