    About this ebook


    Amanda Sun weaves together two tales of love, ink, and magic in this companion novella to the Paper Gods series!

    A long, long time ago, before the world was as we know it, Izanami and Izanagi came into being. Two of the first of the ancient gods of Japan, they crafted the world from ink and their own imaginations. Izanagi wants, more than anything, to be with Izanami–but one moment of pride could tear them apart forever.

    Yuki and Tanaka have been friends for as long as they can remember, but lately deeper feelings have been bubbling beneath the surface. How do they navigate the transition from friendship to true love without destroying the powerful bond between them?

    Set a millennia apart, can these two couples, living parallel love stories, find their happily ever afters?

    And don't miss the epic conclusion to Katie and Tomo's story in Storm, from Harlequin TEEN.
