Summary
When Charley finds himself stranded in the middle of nowhere, with his car stuck in a ditch and the opening act of a blizzard raging around him, he's forced to rely on the kindness and hospitality of a stranger to survive the night. Unfortunately, that stranger also happens to embody everything Charley's ever wanted in a man. You would think romance would be the last thing on his mind after narrowly avoiding the grim fate of freezing to death, and it should be. But the more he talks to his unexpected savior, the more he can feel himself falling down that familiar, slippery pink slope.
Too bad there's no way Yuri could possibly be feeling the same. Because, if anything, this night has proved that Charley's not that lucky...right?

Summary
Of all the obstacles and bullshit high school has delivered to him on a rotting, stinking platter, Charley had never imagined it would be a missing art credit that would threaten to derail his whole life. But lucky for him, Ceramics 4 has an open space left for the spring semester. Only problem? He doesn't know the first thing about pottery. But the teacher's willing to waive a few prerequisites to give him a chance to graduate on time, and when she assigns her best student to help him get up to speed, what could have been a disaster becomes a blessing in disguise.
Even if it might take a few years for him to recognize that and make the most of it.

Summary
Jenna Burke is the girl of Steve's dreams.
He's been wrong a few times—a lot of times—before, but this time he knows it's real. Even if they haven't even been on a date yet. Because she's everything he's ever wanted and so much more.
There's just one problem: he's not the guy of her dreams.
Not yet, at least. But he could be. He will be, with just a little help from Eddie Munson. Too bad the guy still hates Steve's guts.
--
AKA: Steve asks Eddie to teach him how to play guitar so he can impress a girl, and spending hours alone with each other, in close proximity, for weeks on end, definitely isn't going to awaken anything in either of them.

Summary
After faltering under the weight of expectation and failing to live up to his family’s formidable reputation once more, Steve is sent away from the kingdom of Hawkins. To where, his father doesn’t care, so long as it’s far enough that he cannot inflict any more damage upon the now-sullied Harrington name.
But Steve and his fellow travelers don’t make it more than a few miles into the gruesome, shadow-bound woods that surround Hawkins before their pilgrimage is set upon by thieves: the sort with sharp knives and little qualm about using them. Tossed from his horse, without a weapon, Steve is certain that he’s a goner. Until, that is, a bow-wielding stranger, who happens to be the current biggest thorn in the kingdom’s side, steps in and saves Steve’s life, changing it forever in the process.
When he’s offered a place among Kas the Betrayer’s merry band of ne’er-do-wells, he knows better than to accept it. But he has nowhere else to go and nothing left to lose. Little does he know, as he takes Kas’ hand and allows himself to be pulled into the world cast to the outskirts of the kingdom’s consideration, that far more than a new home is in store for him.

Summary
Steve's not sure when, in the seven years they spent weaving in and out of each other's lives, he fell in love with Eddie Munson.
But he remembers when it ended. He remembers the smell of the sea at night, the click, click, catch of an old Zippo, the weight of the fire's heat and the words bunched in his throat. He remembers the drag of his hand across the paper, the rasp of the dull pencil, the terror-wrapped relief of holding the truth, reading it again and again before he pressed it into Eddie's hand. And though he's tried so hard to forget, he remembers what Eddie looked like as he walked away. He remembers the exact day Eddie broke his heart and left it to burn.
August 21st, 1983.
