And Then, The World Ended in Bloomington, MN

Noah Kai, freshly graduated from college, leaves behind the old-world Los Angeles Nexus for the neon-lit, dystopian chaos of New York District. The district, a towering jungle of steel and glass, is a far cry from the world he once knew-fast-paced, corrupt, and buzzing with an undercurrent of danger.
Liam Hayes is everything Noah isn't: outgoing, effortlessly charming, and seemingly straight. Despite their differences, the two form an instant bond, a friendship that grows deeper with each passing day. But as Noah's feelings begin to evolve into something more, he hides them, convinced that Hayes could never reciprocate. The last thing Noah wants is to ruin their friendship over a hopeless crush.
But when the two set off on a high-stakes mission to the tech-mecca of New Edo, the city's pulsating streets, secret sanctuaries, and buried technologies spark something deeper. As they unravel hidden conspiracies and confront both deadly enemies and their own desires, the spark between them becomes a fire.
