Dating is complicated for a fox shifter on the demisexual spectrum. In fact, Tim has kind of given up on it. He devotes himself to his hobbies—books (and arguments about them) and running a forum for his favorite TV show.

When an interesting new neighbor moves in, he wonders if something might eventually develop between them. That question is quickly dashed when his best friend instead falls for the man. Tim resigns himself to the usual—being forgotten about by his friends because of dating and sex.

Ross, his neighbor's friend, shows up angry that he's been forgotten, too. Tim and Ross strike up a conversation. Wolf and fox shifters don't tend to get along very well, but these two have an easy chemistry from the beginning.

Ross needs a fake date for his ex's wedding, and Tim offers to go with him. Why not? It sounds fun. What starts off as a small favor gradually becomes friendship. Could it grow to more?

Summary: Haunted by his last case and still struggling financially, private investigator Nick Fabian is floundering when a birthday surprise from his best friend Connor Long and boyfriend Roy Constas—a home of their own—offers a ray of hope for a future life beyond living in a cramped trailer and staring into the depths of human depravity. Nick's optimism soon fades when he finds human remains crammed into a suitcase dumped in the attic. The bones belong to a local child who was reported missing three years ago. The news only gets worse when Roy reveals he was the one who took the suitcase up into the attic at Connor's request, but he insists he had no idea of its grisly contents. With Connor Long the prime suspect in a murder yet again, battle lines are drawn in Point Clear. Connor's pregnant wife Lillian and girlfriend Sabrina stand by him, but Roy and Emily aren't so certain of his innocence. Nick finds himself trapped in the middle, drawn to Connor by an attraction he's never fully explored, but forced to accept the fact that Connor's hiding something. Connor's brother, Sheriff Thomas Long, hires Nick to investigate and find out the truth, no matter how ugly it may be—but will he regret asking the question once he knows the horrifying answer?
