Summary
Okay, look, Booker wasn’t going to go around and say that most, if not all of the Hanukkahs that had passed during the long stretch of time since he had been forced to temporarily kick the oxygen habit for the first time had been anything but heartbroken or emotionally lonesome affairs for him.
It was the polar opposite of it this time around.
This Hanukkah was full of the comforting smell of Lykon and Joe’s pharmacy worth of luxurious hair care products, Nicky being the snuggliest overgrown Italian tomcat in existence, great food and even better company, and getting to spend some quality time with Yitzhak in their shockingly cozy cabin while he got an eyeful of their more fashionable and less socially paralyzed side.
Booker wouldn’t trade this for anything, and he didn’t think that Yitzhak would either.

Summary
When Booker was seven, Sundays meant playing pretend with Nile in the synagogue basement while their moms worked. Twenty years later, Booker receives a letter from a country he’s never heard of claiming that the ketubah he wrote in magic marker that one time he played pretend wedding with Nile requires his presence forthwith, so he can begin courting the heir to the throne. Booker insists it’s all an elaborate prank right up until his arrival on the lush Caribbean Isle of Nok. Instead of mischief afoot, it is an ancient fey magic, and Booker now faces the very real possibility of being married to a gorgeous soon-to-be queen.
Regardless of what anybody else thinks, Nile and Booker must figure out how to reconnect and decide if they think they have a future together on Nok.
Or, rom-com fantasy tropes crash landed into an exploration of intergenerational trauma, oppression, and liberation.

It's summer in New York, and Nile wants an adventure. Booker offers that— and so much more.

Summary
“I just—” Joe settles into bed, curling into Nicky’s side like he does every night. “I just wish—”
How? How can he say that he wishes it were as easy as a condom breaking, a mistake between two teenagers, or as easy as a husband impregnating his wife—something done four times with ease—and not sound like a cruel, jealous, petty man?
“I wish I could give this to you,” Joe says finally, his voice soft.
Joe and Nicky have been trying to adopt for nearly a decade without success. With the impending arrival of a new addition, Joe—hurt, frustrated, adrift—learns that love, hope, healing, family, doesn't always happen according to plan.

Summary
The world comes in cycles, this much he knows. Birth. Life. Death. His life. His love. His death.
There will never be answers to questions now that this cycle has broken. The rhythm has been thrown off. There is no cadence to any of it.
Birth. Life. Death. Immortality.

Summary
Nicky had thought it would be an easy enough bet.
All he had to do was avoid dating for the entirety of Lent - and considering he’d been single for a while (and deep in the final stretch of his doctorate), it seemed like a downright simple way to help raise funds for the local interfaith center.
Of course that was before Joe arrived.
Joe - with dimples, doe eyes, and curls and who actually seemed interested in him . . .He could do this.
It was only forty days.
Easy peasy. -

Summary
It’s not that Booker doesn’t understand. He does. He fucked up. He’ll take his penance on the rocks and not . . . he won’t complain in a hundred years when he goes back to that shore, to see if some of them are still alive.
Andy won’t be and that hurts, like a catch in his chest that won’t go away.
It'll be a hundred years before he sees his soulmates again (not that they know) and it'll be fine. Of course he didn't expect to be caught in a chemical expulsion or be tortured by Andy's ex.

Summary
“What are you doing here?” He asks after a moment. “Do you want something to drink?”
“Anything cold,” Nile says as she follows him into the tiny kitchen. “Nothing says Christmas like 75-degree weather.”
“It’s not my fault there’s a heatwave,” Booker says, a bit affronted because he actually kind of likes Atlanta despite not visiting the city since ‘96, and it sounds like Nile’s blaming him for the downfalls of climate change.
A heatwave hits Booker in exile, but it’s about to get even hotter.
