Summary
Jerusalem had fallen. Now, on top of the indignity of having to walk - walk! - to Alexandria to avoid getting shot out of the sky, Yusuf al-Kaysani has the double misfortune of being saddled with a filthy, empty-headed, exasperating Frank who doesn't even seem to know what his wings are for.
But after an explosion of temper reveals something about his enemy that Yusuf could never have fathomed in a thousand years, Yusuf finds himself looking at his companion in a whole new light. Suddenly tasked with helping Nicolo achieve a dream, an unexpected spark of compassion is born, that leads to forgiveness, to friendship, to all and more.
Every love story is a kind of dance.
Or - Yusuf and Nicolo live in a world where everyone has wings. It changes a lot about their world, and nothing about them.

Summary
Steve is from a small town; less than 3,000 people, and he's been lonely all his life. When he leaves for college, his parents warn him against the heathens of the rest of the world, but his eyes find someone interesting, someone his parents would hate, hide from, pray for. And Steve finds that he can't really bring himself to care what they'd think. As his faith fades, so does his loneliness, and something else takes their place.

Summary
“Sure thing, kiddo.” Don said.
KIDDO?
“It’s a nickname,” Caroline explained. “Until we give you your real name.”
That made sense. He had to be called something.

Summary
Steve has to get out of this fucking bathroom or he’s certain he’ll die here.
But, before he can tear his bloodshot eyes away and reach for the golden doorknob—his ticket to freedom, he notices it—
A sapphire gemstone lodged in the center of his earlobe....
Eddie can already feel the bruise that lies beneath.
He remembers a scrape of teeth and shudders at the thought.
What the fuck was he doing last night?
Who was he with?
Or
Steve and Eddie wake up on the first day of their senior year unable to properly recall the events of the night before.
The picture is blurry. Their hands are dirty. All they know for certain is that something unforgivable happened last night.
It's too damning to be seen together.
It's too incriminating to talk face to face.
It's a risk neither is willing to take.They never should have started writing those letters.

Summary
“You want me to do what, again?”
“Be my model for my final photography class project!”
Steve knows this already, technically, because Robin has been talking his ear off about this project for three weeks now — one of the last ones she’s gotta do before she’s free, Steve, finally free! — and that had certainly been annoying enough. And now that the prospect of having to be involved was hanging over his head like an ax about to fall, well, now it’s really annoying.
He might even be downright peeved.
