    Summary

    When television star Dean Winchester makes a stop at the Rogue Wave Cafe, owner Castiel Novak initially takes notice - and exception to - the celebrity's presence in the all-but-forgotten beachside town where the age of the average resident is sixty-five.

    This is a story about love and love, about family, friends, and more than friends, about learning when to hold on and when to let go, and about maybe, finding some turtles along the way.

    Summary

    Dean Winchester is well acquainted with loss.

    At the tender age of 10, he moves across the country with his family, leaving behind the only home he has ever known. More than that, he loses touch with his best friend and first love, Castiel Novak. Shortly after his departure, Dean’s parents die in a tragic fire, and he is forced to pick up the pieces of his life and move on.

    Twenty years later, dogged by bitter and painful memories of the past, he manages to put it all behind him and lead a comfortable life. That is, until his past comes back to haunt him in the shape of one Castiel Novak.

    At first, Dean is wary of Castiel’s reemergence in his life. He brings with him his own set of secrets and memories, things, that Dean isn’t sure he’s ready to deal with. Slowly but surely, over the course of time, they reconnect.

    They discover that pain is lessened once shared, and that it’s okay to fall, because there’s a crack in everything, and that’s how the light gets in.

    Summary

    Castiel is directionless, depressed, and working in one of the worst possible places to be so—Disneyland Park. Seeing hundreds of excited people every day, trying to smile for the customers, and dealing with the fact that his infuriating brother Gabriel is so readily capable of every park job he throws himself into makes Castiel feel like he could barely manage to keep his head above the foot of water in the “It’s a Small World” canal that he oversees. All of that changes when the universe sees fit to put him in a Disneyesque love story opposite the handsome animator in the window on Main Street who doesn’t care about Castiel’s lethargic lack of idealism—so long as he can make caustic Cas come to appreciate every attraction in the park. But life isn’t a Disney fairytale, and even though an easy out and a happy ending are what Castiel seeks, he’ll begin to wonder if the happiest ending isn’t really an ending at all.
