    Summary

    “...Mr Teach?”

    “Mm-hm. Says right here, the substitute that covered your class yesterday was an Ed Teach.”

    Stede laughs out loud.

    “You mean to tell me,” he says, “that the substitute’s full, government name was Education Teach?”

    “Edward, I’d expect,” says Lucius, giving Stede a look ordinarily reserved for the particularly dim-witted.

    (Or: Stede has taken one day off. ONE. His classroom is a complete disaster. Who the fuck IS this Ed Teach? He can suck eggs in hell, as far as Stede is concerned. A modern-day enemies-to-lovers teacher AU, because the author is deeply self-indulgent and needed it to happen)

    Summary

    At nearly 50 years old, Stede Bonnet inadvertently ends up at the Winter Olympics, the sole competitor for Aotearoa New Zealand in biathlon. With barely three weeks notice, he’s out of depth and worries he’s not adequate.

    Ed “Blackbeard” Teach won 13 medals in the Summer Olympics for AoNZ two decades ago. Someone thought it was a good idea to bring former athletes to the Winter games—so here he is, taking selfies with figure skaters, going viral with the curlers, and freezing his ass off on the skeleton track. The media may think Stede’s got no hope, but Ed finds him fascinating.

    When Stede and Ed meet, the connection is instant. But as Stede’s events loom, will he be able to compete at the Olympic level? Will he disappoint his crew and his family back home? Worse, will he disappoint Ed?

    (Spoiler alert, no. Ed’s all in.)

    Summary

    Stede meets new neighbour Ed on an ordinary afternoon when he has to take a wrongly delivered package next door. By the end of the day, he'll be a changed man. By the end of the month, he'll hardly recognise his life.

    ~

    Ed moved into his new place after a nasty breakup, and the guy next door turns out to make it all worthwhile, once he figures himself out. But even if he keeps coming back, he always leaves Ed's place and goes back to his wife, and Ed's so tired of being second best.

    This time, he's willing to play dirty to get what he wants.
