At His Mercy

FROM EXCITING AUTHOR OF LGBTQ+ ROMANCE ELVIRA BELL

A thief and his captor... A spicy demand in exchange for freedom. Will Lio give in to the lord of the manor?

Young thief Lio should have known better than to steal from the mighty Lord Callen. After he's been locked up in a cold cell in Callen's manor, he's told that he'll be set free on one condition—that he agrees to share Callen's bed for one night. Lio refuses, but can't help wondering what sleeping with Callen might be like. Callen, on the other hand, takes the rejection badly and thinks Lio finds him old and unattractive. He can't stop thinking about the pretty boy with the white hair though, and they're about to overcome their hostility toward one another when something happens that brutally cuts off their budding friendship and causes Callen to throw Lio out headfirst.

For months they are apart. Callen isolates himself in his chamber, enraged and bitter, while Lio struggles to make it through the winter. In the end, starvation forces him to seek out the last man he wants to see—Lord Callen. Callen, who resents him and does nothing to hide it. Will Lio be able to get through to him? Will they ever have what they both want—each other?
