Peter looks like he has all the gifts in the world, but he knows his challenges more than anyone else.

This story is a prequal to 'Mickey,' but both stories also exist independently. Chapters will be published every three or four days.

Enjoy!

We first met Nate and Danny in The Seventeenth Summer. Best friends forever, but then Danny fell in love a year ago, and left Nate behind.

Nate couldn't blame him; after all, who wouldn't want to escape Thompsonville, but that didn't change his feelings. One year on, it's Nate's turn to escape, but first he needs to see Danny, perhaps for the last time. Can he finally tell his best friends how he really feels? Or is it time to finally spread his own wings and experience life for himself? Or perhaps, life has other things in store for him? The only way to find out, will be to find out what happens in Kandanga Falls.

Not all friendships last forever, but that doesn’t necessarily mean they are truly beyond salvation, does it?
When JJ is outed at school, he thinks his world has fallen apart, but thanks to the support of his friends, Merry and Pete, he survives the ridicule and harassment.
Even his former best friend, Dallas, appears distant, so what will happen when the two of them are thrust together on a school camp, and then thrown into a dangerous situation? Will they be able to work past their differences? Or is their relationship truly beyond salvation?
Only time will tell!!!

For Tony Scott coming home, five years since he left Thompsonville, to chase his dreams, is daunting. Five years since he has seen the only place he could call home, the only people he has been able to call family, and the only man he has ever loved!
If he is to find happiness he knows he must face the mistakes of his past and face those left behind.
What will he find there? Will the town have changed, or will it still be that sleepy seaside haven he had grown to love? Will he be welcomed back, or will he be shunned? All he can do is step off that bus and knock on that door. Only then will he know if he really is in a good place!

The boys are back! We return to Parborough to catch up with Brian & Gordon after an eventful year, what with new jobs, new relationships and new friends. Brian, his soon-to-be husband, Gordon and son, Toby are discovering life as a family, along with working out just what their relationship is with the rich and sexy Russ Kahn.

But life isn't all roses and Toby's relationship with his friend Noah is called into question whilst his Mother's boyfriend remains a worrying threat.

After his parents are killed, TJ's world is flipped upside down by what he discovers.

Ralph has a successful web-design firm, lovely twin daughters and an ex-wife with whom he is on reasonable terms, though his parents persist in regarding him as a disappointment, disliking his choice of career and general lack of ambition. But, in the wake of his divorce, he experiences a return of feelings and ideas that he hasn’t had since his teenage years when an affair with another boy at school left an indelible mark. And now, he has to decide, does he want to be that person who hides, lashes out at any suggestion he might be gay, or does he want to break free.

In spite of a serious injury as a youth, a college student makes his way through life.

Former Delta Operative, Sam Trammel’s entire world has just collapsed and with no other option, he returns to Florida to bury his twin and his past. Ben Santiago is an Episcopal priest, a man with a checkered past, and a close friend of Sam's family. After a chance meeting brings them together, the two men navigate the tangled web of regret and forgiveness as friendship turns into love despite the obstacle of Sam's PTSD, and his reluctance to move toward Ben instead of away. Family and new friendships help Sam to rebuild and realize that sometimes the path to healing and finding home, is by confronting your past head-on.

This is book two in the series, 'The Life and Times of Avery Noonan.' It will focus on Avery Junior, although the rest of the family will make appearances.

To refresh your memories, Avery Junior was born in Philadelphia, PA in December of 2030, shortly thereafter acquiring a blue aura. That indicated to his father he would die of a disease of some sort. That fact would play a key role in Junior's life.
