Hawk has lost everything. 

Recently divorced, he’s moved his broken heart and empty wallet across the kingdom into the rainy city of Abblesbet, where he hopes to find a new purpose and a new job in the garden at an elven brothel. There, he meets a moon-elf adame named March—one of the city’s most in-demand elven escorts. Mistaken for March’s apprentice applicant, Hawk’s interview takes a pleasant and steamy turn as March tests his ability to provide service for future patrons.

Hawk finds his fresh start in March’s very capable hands, but he's left wondering: are these new tender feelings real or is March that good at his job?

Sweet and spicy mm fantasy novella featuring magic, romance, and starting over after loss.

Grief, food insecurity, self-image insecurity, and graphic depictions of sex.

This story also features fantasy-typical racism (moon elves vs Elys elves) and fantasy-typical age gaps (a 220 year old elf vs a 40 year old elf, but both are adults physically and culturally).
