I am the Offering, and the Offering isn't allowed anything kind or beautiful in this world, or her people will burn.
Twice a year, the Lumière-a traveling troupe of fae performers-appear from across the bridge to entertain us mere mortals with their talents.
For most, they're a rare glimpse of magic outside the city walls.
For me, they're an escape from the pain of my oath. Seven nights among strangers, where I can pretend I'm just another villager, instead of the living legacy of the first Bargain with the fae. Fated to die alone and unwanted.
But when two rival performers start paying attention to me, each promising me a whisper of my most secret desires, I begin to question what I really want.
Sebastian, with his soulful eyes and kind promises, who wants to save himself and me from a fae Bargain.
Or Fynn, marked by danger and secrets, who's promised me the ticket to my dreams... at the cost of trapping me in one.
If I seize something beautiful for myself, my village will burn, and I don't know what scares me more... that I'll never take what I want.
Or that I will.
Held in Moonlight's Favor is a slow burn, why choose romantasy perfect for readers who love Elizabeth Helen, Laura Thalassa, and Sarah J. Maas. It features fae trickery, thrilling secrets, and unyielding devotion, woven through a twist on the classic chosen one tale that instead asks the question... what if you weren't the chosen one? What if you were chosen to be unwanted and forgotten, so that everyone else might flourish?
How long would you last before you tore down the walls and seized the life you deserved, no matter the cost?
Held in Moonlight's Favor is the first in a why choose romantasy duet and is intended for mature readers, 18+. It contains past infidelity (not between the romance pairings), infidelity accusations, social ostracization, cruel fae bargains, and background themes of coercion/enthralling (not between romance pairings).
It also contains multiple love interests, graphic intimacy, and explicit MM romance within the trio, and ends on a cliffhanger. Read responsibly.
