Weekly Spotlight
January 31, 2025

Graham Rogers’s home life has never been the greatest, but the older he gets, the worse the situation becomes. When the people who were supposed to love you don't, how can you believe in any sort of happily ever after?
Eric Wallace has spent years building the life and love he wants, in spite of everyone who ever doubted him. When he meets Graham, the younger man’s sad eyes and broken soul call to him in ways he never expected.
Graham knows there are many reasons why they shouldn’t be together, prominent is that Eric has been in relationships with two other men for twelve years. But it’s because of the life Eric has with his partners, that he understands his capacity for love has yet to be reached, and Graham is the next piece of his puzzle.
Despite Graham’s insecurities and cautious resistance, Eric has patience in abundance and isn’t afraid to reassure him at every turn. In the end, Eric shows Graham not only the love he deserves, but the family he’s always longed for, and that may be the sweetest gift of them all.

Not Catching Love
by Saxon James
Xander
There’s something seriously wrong with me.
For once, I’m not talking about the health anxiety that randomly pops up and wreaks havoc on my life. I'm talking about, well, everything else.
All my roommates have found someone to love them, and it hurts to see the guys who used to have me at the center of their worlds pair off and grow up, especially when it’s a reminder of how alone I've always been. I’ve always had an issue with relationships. With forming a connection with people outside of Seven, but this is more.
Because I want to find my someone.
Except the one person my brain has latched onto is the one person I can never have. The one person who’s there to help me when my panic attacks get too much.
Nurse Derek.
Derek
I should never have offered to treat Xander Moore.
And now here I am years later, my life on hold, while I wait day in and day out for the call that Xander needs me. It always comes, and I always answer, but I’m starting to dread those visits.
Lately, I’m looking at Xander in a way a medical professional should never look at their patient.
When Xander starts volunteering at the same nursing home that I do, I get to see a new side of him. The artistic, charismatic side that draws the residents in. I get glimpses of a man who’s so much more than his anxiety, and it does nothing to help my feelings for him.
Lines begin to blur and I have no choice but to stop treating him. That at least allows us to be friends. The only problem is, being friends isn’t enough for either of us.
It’s wrong, unethical, and unprofessional, but my heart won’t listen. It’s decided on Xander, and it doesn’t want to wait. Neither does Xander.
But if I want to keep my job, I have to resist.
I just wish he didn’t make that so difficult.

Spinning to the Goal
by Christie Gordon
As a hockey goalie, I don’t back down. When I meet my match in a figure skater, will my relentless pursuit win his heart?
Ace
Being in a dry spell sucks. Not my hockey game, my love life.
My friends decide it’s time to fix it. So they drag me out, dressed to impress.
Then I see him—exactly my type, all smoldering eyes and a slender body that’s got me forgetting how to breathe.
When our hookup leads to a connection, he gives me his number and I can't believe my luck.
Then... he ghosts me. Out of nowhere. Why?
Zoma
All I wanted was a quick hookup to take the edge off. No complications, no strings.
In walks this guy. He’s massive and sweet. Plus, he’s got a way of making me feel safe. I think he could be more.
Then I find out he’s a goalie.
I’ve been down this road before, and still bear the scars. The last time I fell for a hockey player, I gave him everything and he left me shattered.
No, I’ll focus on my figure skating competitions and the kids I train. It’s easier.
But Ace keeps showing up, all broad shoulders and an infuriatingly irresistible, aw-shucks smile.
How am I supposed to guard my heart when he refuses to give up on me?

Now that Calvin’s found his match, can he show Frankie there are safer ways to surrender?

The Head Game
by Brigham Vaughn
Nico Arents Rushed to Hospital After In-Game Fall—Mystery Beau Revealed?
The Fisher Cats defenseman is conscious and in stable condition following a seizure that occurred during the recent game against Buffalo.
Updates indicate that while still hospitalized, he’s hopeful for a quick return to the ice.
The incident raises serious questions after referee August Manning was spotted in the same hospital shortly after Arents was admitted.
Recent rumors have swirled around Arents’ involvement with someone within the league. Could Manning be the mystery man?
A credible source claims the two are engaged. “He has been so doting! He’s barely left Nico’s side.”
Tongues are wagging as their off-ice involvement throws Manning’s on-ice impartiality into question.
How will the league react? Thus far, they have declined to comment but given the new Code of Conduct, there will be some tough questions to answer for these men to keep their romance and their careers.
