About this ebook

A storm at sea leaves twin hearts broken... and when the twins enter town, they leave broken hearts in their wake.

Trouble is brewing in Illyria. Steadfast and stubborn Duke Orsino won’t take no for an answer from Countess Olivia, yet Olivia’s proud heart beats only for Cesario. The catch? Cesario used to be known as Viola.

Viola lost her twin brother Sebastian at sea and entered Orsino’s household disguised as a man. Now, Cesario is falling for his master, the duke – while helping Orsino court Countess Olivia! Is it because Cesario used to be Viola that he is falling in love with a man? And if so, why does he vow that the dead will walk the earth before he answers to Viola?

Outside of town, a man who wears Cesario’s face is recovering from long illness, cared for by the darkly handsome sailor and war veteran Antonio. When this stranger, so recently recovered, decides to travel to Illyria, he walks into a love triangle he never could have imagined. And Antonio will take his life in his hands to follow the man he has come to love.

Will Illyria still be standing when the storm-lost twins are done with it?

The strands of passion and destiny lead to strange places; find the impossible happily ever after in this retelling of Shakespeare’s classic queer love story. Discover, in a story that has enthralled audiences for ages...

An even queer-er Shakespeare.

Jess Mahler

Jess’ weird fish-out-of-water life has left them with an enduring love/hate affair with common tropes. The relationship counselor recommended they break it off, but they just keeps coming back to play with tropes (and fuck them up) some more.In between their tropic indulgences, they write queer fantasy with aromantic, neurodivergent, and generally ‘weird’ characters, take care of their family, argue halakha, and try to do a bit of educational activism on the side.Their website ‘digital garden’ updates semi regularly, and they're active on Tumblr, Mastodon, and a few other spots around the web.
