Summary
A hand tugs at Henry’s sweater as he’s rearranging the Austen section, and he smiles, abandoning his books and crouching down. “Hello, Sophia.”
Today, Sophia's decked out in a Spiderman costume, complete with a matching tiny backpack and camera.
“Hi, Mister Henry.”
“Yeah, hi, Mister Henry.”
Henry laughs, heart impossibly warm. “Hello to you too, Alex. The books are on the counter, I’ve had them set aside for you.”

Summary
Henry’s at a local Hispanic Heritage Month event browsing the art stalls when his gaze catches on a kid looking around with both purpose and nervousness. She’s fidgeting with the hem of her t-shirt with one hand while she bites the nails of the other one, eyes alert and searching. Lost, then.
And oh, Henry recognises her. She’s a regular at his bookstore, even at only six years old, and is there at least weekly with her dad—Alex, who she’d introduced to Henry as her papi—or various aunties and uncles, most of whom Henry doesn’t think are actually related to her. Keeping one eye on her, he lets his gaze sweep the vicinity but doesn’t see anyone else he even remotely recognises. Shit. He has to do something.
“Sirena?” he calls gently.Henry... is more than a bit useless around hot guys. So when he finds the lost kid of the gorgeous dad who frequents his bookstore, he pulls himself together until they reunite, only to then be devastated by the revelation that the man thinks Henry hates him. And, well... courage always rises, and all that.

Summary
Henry wakes with a jolt. There’s crying coming from somewhere, he’s not sure where. In fact, he’s not entirely sure he’s not dreaming because it sounds like a baby, and that’s something he definitely doesn’t have. Nor does anyone else in his family or their staff. But the crying doesn’t stop. His eyes are crusty from the tears, and he rubs them. The crying still doesn’t stop. That’s when he sees it—the crib in the corner of his room. A crib he’s never seen in his life.

Summary
That’s where the memory turns strange. The Feeling takes over him as the sharp taste of orange and the mellow sweetness of the chocolate burst across his tongue. He Feels scratchy wool against his cheek instead of fleece, and he Feels a warmth in his chest like someone he loves just laughed nearby, but most of all he Feels safe — like being held in a thunderstorm.
// In this version, soulmates share one of the five senses. Here's how Henry and Alex find each other through Tastes and Memory.

Summary
Staying at work late had become an unconscious part of Henry’s evenings.
Not because that’s where he wanted to be on a Friday night as a single, gay man in want of a live-in boyfriend. It wasn’t because he was – as his nieces kept insisting – keeping all the exhibits from coming to life and running off into the night. The truth was museums were very busy places. Whether one worked up front with the regular patrons, school groups, and special visitors, or in the back with the restorationists, archivists, and catalogers.
Especially when one was responsible for locating another country’s property, curating an exhibit about said property, and then organizing a gala for the exhibit, donors, and ambassadorial staff of the country the pieces would be returned to when the exhibit closed after five months.
Especially when a very handsome, inappropriately-dressed man falls out of a borrowed statue and into his lap on the night of the full moon.
