    About this ebook

    When a harried junior editor and a haughty fae composer are forced to share a small flat in London during a public health lockdown, sparks begin to fly...in all directions!

    Stephanie Burgis

She writes wildly romantic historical fantasy for adults (most recently, Scales and Sensibility, Good Neighbors, and the Harwood Spellbook series) and fun, funny MG fantasy adventures for kids (most recently, The Raven Heir and the Dragon with a Chocolate Heart trilogy).
