When magic reunites two fated mates who'd once been friends, will they fall in love and find light in the darkness or lose themselves in it?
Diego
Losing your sight at the age of ten was not fun. Losing your best friend was even worse. Not every kid befriended the monster under their bed, but Shade hadn't been a monster. He'd been sweet, kind, and the best friend I'd ever had. He'd also saved my life.
I'd thought I would never 'see' him again, but then the thing that kept me safe and stopped me from getting hurt started tugging me somewhere, and following its pull led me straight to Shade. Finding him again was nothing short of a miracle, and there was no way I was letting him go again.
Shade
Living in the Sanctuary was great. I had a place of my own, and I didn't have to be afraid of light, or the pain it would cause me. I was safe, if a little lonely. I had friends, but none as close as the one I'd once had, even if he'd been just a child.
When Diego walked right into my home one day out of nowhere, I was afraid I was dreaming. But he was really there, had been led to me by my own shadows that'd stayed with him years ago. I'd never thought we would meet again, and I'd never imagined he would grow up into such a good-looking man.
Shade is a 40k words MM paranormal romance featuring a shadow-being vulnerable to the light, a blind human who always finds the silver lining, and the pocket dimension of The Sanctuary, home to all kinds of supernatural beings.
While Shade is a standalone novella and can be read on its own, it is a part of The Sanctuary series and chronologically falls between The Jorogumo and The Shtriga.
