Summary:

Alec loves his job. He’s been touring since he was sixteen. He’s stayed in dozens of countries over the years, learned enough of their languages to get a beer in his hand and a man in his bed. The road is as much his home as the townhouse on the Upper West Side. He’s as comfortable in cheap hotel rooms with scratchy linens and glaring lights as he is in his penthouse that overlooks Central Park with its silk sheets and the constant hum of the city that never sleeps.

Alec works hard and that hard work has paid off. He just finished his latest sold-out world tour and by all rights, he should be on top of the world. But the mental pressure of celebrity is getting to Alec and he doesn’t trust his footing. He’s stuck where most people would kill to be and he just wants to know what his next move should be.

Enter Magnus Bane. A history professor at Columbia University, Magnus is content with his friends, his classes, and the occasional warm body in his bed. But he’s been feeling stagnant, looking for the next chapter in his life to begin. If only he knew what Alec would bring his way.

Summary:

In Alec’s world, one’s ultimate goal in life was rarely something as mundane and trivial as getting your dream job, or winning the lottery. No child grew up wishing only that they’d become an astronaut one day; no one grew up wishing for just money.

No, things like that were too common, too out of one’s control. Children didn’t want to beg for things they didn’t know they had a chance with. In Alec’s world, people wished for their Soulmate. For their colour.

*****

When Alec was ten years old, he realised the colour he’d been missing was one called ‘gold’. Izzy had told him of its beauty.

He’d never understood what she meant until now.

Summary:

Four years after the events of the Angel’s Voice, Alec and Magnus have broken up. Both of them have moved on with their professional and personal lives, but no amount of success can fill up that gap for the love they still have for each other. Even if they insist on staying as far away from each other as possible.

That is until an irrefutable invitation comes up. Now, Alec and Magnus have no choice but to work together once again. This collaboration could end up in a complete disaster.

Or, it could end up in them finally finding their way back to each other.

Summary:

Reclusive singer Alec Lightwood has been taking some time away from the spotlight for a few years now. He has lost his inspiration, his reason to keep making music.

That is, until his manager, Luke Garroway, asks him to enter the panel of the ridiculous singing competition The Angel’s Voice. Alec only says yes because that means keeping an eye on Clary and Simon. He hates those fixed, degrading TV shows with a burning passion. Hopefully, Alec figures, he’ll get some inspiration back watching newcomers try their luck on TV. Some of them are bound to be good.

It isn’t until Magnus Bane walks on stage, however, that Alec realizes just how right he is.

Summary:

Alec had never expected much, had never found a reason to do so— so when he turns twenty-one, in the fall of 1987, he doesn’t expect for much to change, despite what everyone keeps telling him.

Then he meets someone and suddenly, there’s a reason to expect something.
