    Summary

    miel de miel : french, meaning "the honey of honeys"

    Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov are top operatives in their field. Ilya, infamous honeypot and professional pain in Shane's ass, entangles him in an effort to seduce their mutual target and sets off a spark that threatens to consume them both.

    Lust – and maybe more – blooms across continents, across missions, and across the walls they've built around themselves.

    Summary

    In a world where homophobia and queer fear doesn't exist, in a world where love can happen out in the open for anyone and everyone, Shane Hollander is still stubbornly single. As the Captain of the Montreal Voyageurs, he insists he's too focused on hockey and his career for a relationship, when in reality, old fears of being seen as "the hockey weirdo" keep him from unmasking.

    That is, until Ilya Rozanov enters his life. The newly single Captain of the Ottawa Centaurs, after a decade-long relationship ends amicably, is now interested in the one man who won't give him the time of day.

    So when Shane, while on National Television, tells Ilya he'll have to "impress him" to earn that first date, Ilya takes it as the greatest challenge of his life. What follows is a whirlwind of grand romantic gestures, public flirting, chirping (flirting) on the ice, social media ploys and and ever escalating spectacle. All while the NHL, their friends, their family, their teams, and fans across the continent watch, cheer, and place bets on when Shane will finally say yes.

    Summary

    Whatever spell the Grand Bazaar and its atmosphere had cast on Sethos, it made him bold enough to extend his pinky finger and loop it around Scaramouche’s pinky in return.

    The touch was static, even though it was the softest thing. They both sharply inhaled, lightning on their lips, but it got swallowed by the roaring applause. Neither Scaramouche nor Sethos joined the crowd, keeping their fingers linked.

    “Scara—”

    “Just…shut up,” Scaramouche whispered, eyes pinned to the stage. “Just one minute, for once.”

    Summary

    Without the shackles of his software dictating his decisions, Connor had been excited, at first, to have the opportunity to choose for himself what he wanted to do with his life. He hadn't had the time to answer that question honestly, to understand his own preferences and desires enough to know how to answer it, before the reality of legal personhood, as well as all the complications that came along with it, answered it for him.
    "What am I going to do?" had very quickly changed from an abstract question of infinite possibilities to one of genuine panic, one that needed to be answered quickly.

    Connor struggles with questions of desire and purpose after the revolution. (And with his attraction to the faceless, deep-voiced man who restores vintage electronics for a living and makes ASMR videos about the process.)
