A romantic, queer sci-fi epic about changing the galaxy, one girl at a time. Castor Quasar is a junker- a bounty hunter making a living off of collecting and selling valuable scrap. They live a quiet life, bouncing from job to job and not worrying about the brewing galactic rebellion. Except, when they get a job offer for an irresistible amount of money, they find themself embroiled much deeper than expected. Their task? To smuggle transgender activist Juno Marcus across the galaxy under the watchful eye of the Intergalactic Police Force and a propaganda-informed galaxy. It's too dangerous to accept, but too valuable to refuse, and it doesn't help that Juno herself is charming and beautiful. Agreeing drags Cas into a whirlwind race against those who want Juno dead to make it across the galaxy to safety, risking it all for a cause they can't- or won't- believe in.

When reluctant IPF Lieutenant Sebastian Wilder performs a confidential check-in on a top-secret lab, the last thing he expects to find is a highly illegal cloning facility that manufactures identical girls as products for the filthy rich. When he rescues the sole remaining 'product' on a split-decision, cutting all ties with his employer, he triggers a chain reaction that hurdles him and the girl on the run across the galaxy.Sebastian taps into an encrypted line to the violent rebel sect threatening the galactic government. The man on the other end seems suspicious- and for good reasons- but as Sebastian relinquishes valuable information his ex-employer would execute him for, the two start an ill-advised relationship across galactic allegiances.With not only Sebastian's life in danger, but those of his ward and confidant too, every step away from the IPF is of infinite importance. But while Sebastian knows what he's running from, what is his end goal? What does survival- and above that, freedom- look like for a guilt-ridden defector like him?

When Boston born and bred Simon Abbott buys an obsolete lighthouse on the coast of Maine, he envisions turning it into a short-term rental with nothing but a HGTV understanding of renovation and heaps of gay audacity. The current caretaker of the lighthouse, Bruce Cadogan, sees right through Simon's confidence and, in a last ditch attempt to save his quaint New England hometown's charm, asks for three days to convince Simon not to go through with his plan, or he'll help him with the renovations himself. What follows is nothing either man expected- A violent ocean storm brings them together for a night, which turns into a day, and another day; by the time Simon's three days are up, he's saddled with feelings for the other man, and Bruce can't help but wish Simon would stay. With the lighthouse standing between them, the two men have to choose between nurturing the new spark into a flame, or their original agreement, returning to the lives they led before.
