For centuries, evidence of queer love in the ancient world was ignored or suppressed. Even today, only a few, famous narratives are widely known - yet there's a rich literary tradition of Greek and Roman love that extends far beyond this handful of stories. Here, the poet Seán Hewitt and painter Luke Edward Hall collect together, for the first time, forty of the most exhilarating queer tales in the classical canon and bring them newly to life.

A ground-breaking anthology that changes the way we see the ancient world - and invites us to reflect on the puritanism of our own - 300,000 Kisses is a riotous celebration of desire in all its forms.

For ten years Hannah and Finn have spent Christmas together. With no family to enjoy the holidays with, they've created their own traditions. Through the years, they've been joined by other lonely souls, Priya and Theo, together creating The Christmas Orphans Club. But this year everything is about to change.

After a rocky year of silence, Finn and Hannah are finally speaking again. They're trying to put the past behind them and bring back the Christmas spirit they all know and love. Until Finn announces some rather big news. News that rocks the group to its core.

This Christmas could be their last, and Hannah is determined to make it the best one yet, even if it means pushing the people she loves away.

After a fight with his cheating ex leads to missing his college scholarship interview, Tyriq Howell vows to be done with dating for good. Until Desmond, a boy who works in the scholarship office, approaches with a curious proposal: he’ll get Tyriq another interview if he pretends to be Desmond’s date to a fancy gala in two weeks.

When Tyriq shows up to the gala, he’s shocked when photographers swarm him and Desmond. He’s even more shocked when he finds out that Desmond is Prince Desmond of Catalina. And now that the whole world knows Desmond is gay, he’s front page news.

When the King angrily summons Desmond and his new boyfriend to Catalina, Desmond begs Tyriq to play along. If his father realizes Desmond is serious about coming out, he might finally agree to let Desmond pass the crown to his sister instead.
