Summary
“Be mine for the night. Surrender completely to what I want. Your men may leave safely in the morning. I swear it.”
Those were the words Lord Crozier spoke to Sir James after besting him in battle. James agreed, and has hungered for a return to that night since. So why, after the end of the war and an arranged marriage between them, does his lord now turn away from him?

Summary
In a lifetime of unsubtleties, the affair with Crozier is James’s worst. Crozier’s hand resting on James’s lower back, there for all to see. Crozier’s fingers nudging gently at James’s shirtcuffs when they stood around at receptions; Crozier’s pale eyes going soft and foolish when James entered the room. Sometimes simply Crozier’s nod, sharp and proprietary, as though to say get upstairs, get in my office, close the door—as if the rest of them were not right there.

Summary
“You’ll be paired up with Edward Little, bass player for the power metal band Terror.”
On the suggestion of a friend (and after a night of morose drinking), former corps de ballet and principal dancer Thomas Jopson throws his lot in on the reality competition show Dance of a Lifetime. To his surprise, not only is he accepted, but he's paired with a man he's never heard of: Edward Little, critically acclaimed bassist for the equally acclaimed power metal band Terror.
At best Thomas is expecting long hair, tattoos, uncontrollable body odour, and maybe for Edward Little to have a decent sense of where to put his feet if they’re both lucky. At worst, a temperamental rockstar’s refusal to take anything seriously may result in Thomas' career and reputation going up in flames.
He isn’t expecting the surprisingly mild, thoughtful man behind the guitar, however, and in the end Edward Little and his sad, tired eyes might be all it takes to throw all Thomas’ rigid, best laid plans right out the window.
