Summary
Earth is dead. The Atlantis Space Station is dying. It’s the year 2443 and Majors Bucky Egan and Gale Cleven, pilots of the USS Odyssey, are tasked with transporting 5,000 civilians to safety before setting off on humanity’s last hope mission to find a new home.
They share a cockpit, a mission and a rank — but that’s where the similarities end. Bucky thinks that Gale’s a stiff golden boy. Gale thinks Bucky’s a reckless pain in the ass. Sparks fly and it’s not from a supernova explosion. The two pilots must find a way to work together to save mankind and ultimately, each other.

Summary
The glow that’s cast over John's book dims, a shadow blanketing the pages, and two hands come into view, bracing on the edge of the table, rings clicking against the wood.
“You lost?”
John looks up and meets steely blue eyes with his own wide ones. Broad arms flex where the man leans against the table, and tobacco and sweet–cedar cologne fill his nose and lungs when he inhales, hitting him like a fist to the face, making his head spin. The stranger seems to consider him for a moment, and John’s cheeks grow warm.
— Or: College student John Egan ends up in an old pub on the other side of his small town, where he has a chance encounter with biker and mechanic Gale Cleven. His life is forever changed.

Summary
“It’ll be fun,” Marge says to him over the phone as he’s unpacking another box in his tiny, studio apartment. “I’ve been to a few other classes, it’s a good environment.”
“It doesn’t sound like my sort of environment, Marge,” Gale says, picking up an astrophysics textbook that pushes the bounds of what a single-handed grip is capable of. It strains the tendons in his wrist as he tries not to drop it on the way to its new home in the built-in bookshelf. The edges of it are bloated, almost rubbery with how many times it’s been painted over in the same shade of white, a few spots chipped away to show rich brown wood underneath.
“Your sort of environment is on a hill with a telescope, with nobody around.”

Summary
Gale was innocent. He’d never asked for this. He simply had the misfortune of being born to a father who did not want him, followed by the greater misfortune of growing up with one who did.
John knew this and accepted it. He loved him, the beautiful boy who slept on a sofa in caravan seventeen. He loved him so much it burned but he couldn’t help the fact that sometimes, when it was very quiet, he sort of felt like all of this was his fault.
+++
John was a burnout who works at a fish and chip shop and moonlighted as a small-time drug dealer. Gale was the mysterious kid who just moved into the local caravan park with his dad. It should have been simple. It was not.
