When kindhearted passion . . .
Sophisticated rent-a-lad Fife Kwadwo has carved out a decent life for himself as a second-generation human immigrant in the elven city-state of Airgead. For years, he's been surrounded by too many men: a controlling ex, a beloved client, and a hopeless best friend. As he faces mandatory retirement, the men in his life are clearing out. Now prickly aristocratic elf Cairbre, the one he survived a terrifying ordeal with, has stumbled back into his life, and Fife can't help but catch him.
. . . meets bitter determination.
Dutiful son Cairbre Wildgreen has always followed a predetermined path. His deeply indebted family will be set free when he marries, leaving him trapped in a life he dreads. While he avoids kissing his perfectly lovely fiancée, he dreams of doing so much more with Fife. Ever since they fled torture and near-death together, he cannot get Fife out of his head. Will a last-ditch attempt to indulge his secret desire get him back on track, or derail them both?
Return to Airgead, the city of magic and technology, aristocrats and working class, elves and humans, as Fife and Cairbre deal with the aftermath of the events set in motion in The Calm Before.
Content warning: This book deals with themes of trauma and grief. 78,000 words.
Neena Jaydon has been turning things into stories for most of her life, from building a world of spacefaring wolves out of blocks to writing for endless hours in the basement. She loves fantasy best but also dabbles in space opera and cyberpunk. When not writing, she enjoys playing video games, collecting Asian Ball-Jointed Dolls, and spinning yarn. Although her memoirs could be entitled Adventures in Petsitting, she has retired from those adventures to take care of a slowly growing population of rescue rabbits in her own home.
