Last Flame

Elara has a publishing deadline, a houseplant named Gerald, and a growing suspicion that something is very, very wrong. First notes started showing up, that definitely couldn't be for her. Then the cat in her doorway... perfect timing. And the dreams... Oh, they're good. If you know what I mean. She tells herself it's stress. It's not. When men show up looking like they walked out of the romantasy books she reads, Elara has a folding chair and a complete lack of interest in any of them. Why? Because this is real life. Not the fantasy she and Gerald discuss daily. Something is up and she knows it. One of them is lying. One of them was in the dreams. And someone is going to explain the cat... Probably after she adopts it. Last Flame is a slow-burn why-choose romantasy with banter, betrayal, and one wildly unprepared woman who is not doing this today. Book One of The Forgotten Ones.
