Blurb
I was creating magic from the forest… but I found a guardian who wanted far more than my craft.
Autumn is my season. I gather fallen leaves, twisted branches, and wild blooms to create enchanted décor for Damruck’s Harvest Masquerade—centerpieces meant to bless homes, spaces, and celebrations. I know the forest well. Or at least, I thought I did.
Then I meet him.
He appears between the trees like he belongs there—quiet, watchful, and far too interested in the way I work my magic. Rowan is reserved, powerful, and wrapped in an earth-deep presence that makes my pulse stumble every time our eyes meet. There’s something old in his gaze. Something hungry.
When a mysterious invitation arrives bearing the name Nocturne Arcana, I realize the forest has been watching me just as closely as I’ve been shaping it. Rowan isn’t just a stranger. He’s a harvest guardian—and crossing his path means confronting desire, devotion, and the cost of being truly seen.
Letting him claim me might mean giving up the life I’ve built.
But resisting him?
Unthinkable.
Time commitment: A quick, spicy autumnal monster romance with cozy-chaotic magic.
Come for: A forest artist, harvest magic, seasonal hunger, and the protective guardian watching from the trees.
Stay for: Tender belonging, earthy monster-romance heat, protective comfort, and a complete happily ever after.
