Garden Of Love

Song of the Gardener of Souls [BL]

Rowan sees beauty in death. The Order he has sworn to obey only sees defilement. As the reviled Caretaker of the Order, Rowan has accepted his role as a dutiful outcast because he believes it is the only way to prove his worth to the man who holds his sisters’ souls as collateral. With his magic and his voice, Rowan can absorb death and transform it, but only in ways the Order deems acceptable to maintain the stability of the reality it claims to protect Order must subdue Disorder. Reality must triumph over illusion. He is tainted and always will be. Rowan has never questioned those lessons, but that changes the night he harvests a crimson soul that is more than human and chooses to keep it a secret. When Rowan’s song transforms that soul into a beautiful and mysterious man he names Wren, he is forced to accept that sometimes duty is a lie and illusion is the only thing you can trust. As the fabric of the Order begins to unwind and a new kind of Disorder takes hold, Rowan will need to choose again, stand with the Order that held him down, or forge a new path with Wren at his side. He may be the only one who can restore balance to the worlds, but only if he can find balance within himself first. ************************************* Updates 3-4 times per week. Note: This story focuses on relationships. I promise an epic romance, lots of swoon-worthy moments, and a healthy amount of fluff. When it does get steamy…you might get burned. Fair warning for explicit content. I don’t shy away from my spice. There are lots of side characters and couples to fall in love with, in addition to the main couple. If you love the idea of found family, you will be happy. This book is set in a non-heteronormative world, so you will see various gender identities/expressions and types of love. ************************************* Excerpt (if you want the full steamy version, you will have to read the book!): Still reeling from the new magic that coursed under his skin and unsure of how to react to the desire that threatened to take control of him, Rowan froze. Wren's hot breath against his mouth sent a jolt of pleasure through his body, and he choked back a groan. A different kind of panic flared in Rowan's chest, burning him as if he were the one on fire. This was what he wanted, what he'd thought about every night since Wren left. But wanting more was one thing. Acting on it was another. He'd spent so much of his life hiding, he didn't know how to do anything else. One corner of Wren's mouth twitched as Rowan pulled away. When he attempted to free himself from Wren's grasp, Wren just hauled him closer. Rowan liked that he didn't have to think about what to do next. His bare chest thudded against Wren's torso, and the heat from Wren's body merged with Rowan's skin, melting him from the inside out. "What did you just do to me?" Wren's deep voice vibrated against Rowan's chest. "The Disorder of your illusion was holding you captive. I…I absorbed it." "Oh? Where did you learn to do that? Have I been gone that long?" Wren's grip loosened slightly on Rowan's wrists as if he was satisfied now that Rowan was practically sitting on top him. Rowan stared at Wren's lips. He opened his mouth to protest, but immediately closed it again. "I know you aren't going to say that I shouldn't touch you." Wren's free hand splayed over the small of Rowan's back. "Not when you started it." Rowan's breath hitched. "No. I'm not going to say that anymore. Not to you." "I thought you were afraid to be touched." Wren's fingers traced a circle over the curve of Rowan's spine as if testing for a reaction. "I know that I'm not afraid of you." Rowan waited for the panic to set in, but all he felt was desire. "With you, I want…" "You want what?" "I want more." Triumph flared in Wren's gaze before he narrowed his eyes. "Really? Then why are you still trying to get away from me?"

Ashes Of Love: Love Like Immortals

To the world, Seraphina Evercrest was the perfect noblewoman: graceful, talented, and beautiful. Her love for Crown Prince Leander Celestis was like a fairy tale, the two destined to be immortal lovers. But everything changed with an imperial decree—she was forced to marry the cold-hearted Prince Lysander Celestis, a man as ruthless as he was powerful. For a year, they lived as distant strangers, their marriage bound by polite indifference. But behind his facade of mutual respect, Lysander let her suffer in silence, confined to a life of misery within the palace walls. After two years as empress, another imperial decree stripped her of her title, banishing her to the cold palace—a desolate prison where hunger and hardship became her only companions. Seraphina thought her suffering would eventually end. But the final blow came with a decree to confiscate her family’s wealth, destroying everything she once held dear. Only then did she realize that her marriage, her humiliation, and her suffering were all part of Lysander’s grand conspiracy. The man she once loved, dressed in white beneath the pear blossoms, was lost to her forever by his command. Escaping the clutches of death, Seraphina rose from the ashes of her ruined life. Laughing bitterly at the heavens, she swore: “Lysander Celestis, you destroyed my love, my family, and my soul. I’ll bury you with the weight of your entire kingdom!” Three years later, she returned, her army of iron steeds and golden swords shaking the empire. And only then did Lysander realize the truth—Seraphina was the one he had been searching for all along. Overcome with regret, the proud prince bowed his head before her, but it was too late. She smiled behind her tears and whispered, “When love turns to ashes, even the brightest flames cannot rekindle it. It’s too late.” Themes: A tale of betrayal, resilience, and the blurred line between love and hate.
