Summary
30-year-old Charlie Spring-closeted, widowed, father to a 6yo diabetic daughter-moves from Texas to Germany for a new job and new start. His deeply religious upbringing has long kept him from embracing his true self but in his new environment, he finds the space to question the faith that has defined his entire identity. Nick Nelson-out and proud bisexual primary school teacher-patiently and lovingly walks alongside Charlie as he overcomes his past and all the while the sexual tension between them grows.

Summary
After a decade of living together, Charlie, Isaac, Tao, and Elle are renegotiating what being friends looks like in light of big life changes. Professor Charlie Spring/running coach and self-defense instructor/rugby coach Nick Nelson meet at a professional development meeting for coaches at the community center: friendship and accidental (?) flirting ensues. Tara and Darcy become each other’s people in this messy thing we call life. Imogen and Sahar show the meaning of home, in all its glory. This aged up American AU Heartstopper is a love story–a story of love for my college town, a story about (sometimes complicated) love for rural homes, a story of falling in love, and a story that celebrates and dignifies the love of friendship and other deep, non-romantic, loves. Because when everything feels like it’s falling apart, love is what holds us together.

Summary
Charles Spring is a highly regarded professor and fighter for LGTBQIA+ rights, the latter causing trouble for him on the regular. This time, though, the letters he receives are threatening enough that the police deems it necessary to assign two police constables for his protection until his big speech in one week, which everyone hopes will make a serious difference to a gender-related law in the making. PC Jones will accompany Charlie during the day, while he will spend his nights with PC Nelson in his flat. The whole anxious situation would be a lot easier, if the two men just got along.

Charlie is 30 and has recently been made a professor. He is setting up a new course on LGBTQIA+ History and social issues.
Guess who the guest is on Nick's show one morning?
Chaotic meet-cute, with lots of fluff. Hoping to get the courage to do smut eventually because they are grown ups!
