Perfect for you if...

You love lush, character-driven fantasy that prioritises emotional intimacy over action and world-building spectacle.
You want to read a gay romance where the stakes feel genuinely dangerous and the ending isn't guaranteed to be safe.
You appreciate prose that's literary and sensual without being overwrought, where a novella's length works in its favour rather than against it.

Maybe not for you if...

You need lengthy world-building exposition to feel grounded in a fantasy setting.
You prefer romance where external conflict takes a back seat to personal chemistry and banter.
You're looking for a happy ending that resolves all tensions neatly, rather than one that sits with ambiguity.

About this book

A Taste of Honey is a novella set in a world long after the Towers departed but before dragons arrived in Daluça. An imperial delegation of gods and diplomats visits Olorum to negotiate trade routes and seek arcane assistance from local deities. Aqib bgm Sadiqi, fourth-cousin to the royal family and son of the Master of Beasts, becomes romantically involved with Lucrio, a Daluçan soldier. Their relationship develops despite opposition from Saintly Canon, servants' gossip, and disapproval from Aqib's father and brother. The novella follows whether their love can endure the challenges the world presents. This title is sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
