Summary
When Simon and his family move, again, to the quiet town of Bjästard, he's all out of hope. He’s tired of new beginnings, of packing boxes, of pretending to be okay. But Bjästard comes with more than he bargained for: a golden haired, reckless neighbour named Wilhelm.
Between complicated family dynamics, unresolved grief, long stares that mean too much, and secrets neither boy is ready to name, Simon and Wilhelm are about to find out that hate isn't the opposite of love, apathy is. And they stopped being apathetic the second they met.

Summary
Henry’s long term partner broke up with him the morning after he was shot during a charity event and paralyzed.
Pez had been there every hour. He watched Henry come out of sedation, disoriented, whispering words that made no sense—except one. A name he hadn’t said in years unless he said it through regretful tears.
“Alex.”
Pez swallows his pride. Sits on the hospital floor, knees to his chest, and starts calling. Twelve voicemails. Some of them he doesn’t remember leaving. Some of them he wishes he hadn’t.
And then he texts Alex:
He’s asking for you in his sleep. Just your name. Nothing else. You don’t have to stay. But he’s already lost everything else—don’t let him lose this too. -

Summary
The man has not stopped staring at Simon since he entered the small pizzeria in Bjärstad and ordered a medium-sized pepperoni pizza and a Coke.
Simon would feel flattered if he were not so confused about why, despite sitting there for an hour already, the man has not eaten a bite from his pizza yet. Why do you go to a restaurant when you are not there for food?
The man smirks. Simon has no idea what is suddenly so funny, but he is low-key relieved when the man takes a small bite from the pizza.
-or-
What starts as an innocent flirt for Simon is only the beginning of a twisted journey as he falls, unbeknownst to him, in love with a dark and powerful creature of the night.
