Summary
If you asked most people of Daniel J. Howell’s lot in life, they’d tell you it was pretty good. A small career writing for a fashionable magazine, the heir to one of New York’s most prestigious hotels, the convenience of youth and an ailing millionaire father… what more could an 18-year-old ask for?
So when a night at the symphony turns into the start of a whole new double life in the city’s queer underworld, the heir to New York’s most fashionable hotel will have to learn what is what when you're dating a cabaret singer, and who is who when that singer becomes a troubled star.
So it’s nothing but fate to blame when things start to fall apart. The catch? It’s the last half of the 1920s—
And this romance is illegal.

Summary
There were so many people in life you never expected to be there. But some relationships just bloomed when you weren't looking, like a sunflower in the pavement. The tree in the back. The mold in the sink.
Crowley — snarly neutral, IT-guy, wannabe architect, quiet keep-to-himself tosser — didn't expect to become friends with a Caregiver. Especially such a sunny one. But Mr. Fell was nice. He asked about Crowley's life, he was funny, he teased. Even fed him sometimes.
Sure, it was harder than anything to believe someone wanted to do nice things for you just because. But. Ehh, bollocks. The eccentric, wealthy bookshop keeper Mr. Fell wouldn't hurt a fly. And one of these days Crowley was going to figure out getting a Little for him. He was just a good friend. A confidant in the everyday struggle of life.
———————————————————————————————
But now Mr. Fell is being strange.
