Synopsis

On the surface, the Circus of Dreams travels around the Continent of Eiliron entertaining the people of the seven kingdoms with their frivolity and sleights of hand. 

But beloved ringmaster and head puppeteer, Master Jeskil, is soon manipulating more than puppet strings when he is drawn into a wicked plot of greed and desire in the kingdom of Corraçao.

After years of marriage, the King and Queen of Hearts have no heir: a fact not lost on the King’s first counselor, Vikar Revin, who hears the court’s gossips whispering in the shadows, forming factions of allegiance, and plotting treasonous schemes. 

At the heart of these conspiracies is the charming and ambitious Roxanna Talian of Feracia who has set her sights on replacing the Queen. 

In spite of the mounting evidence of malign influences from outside as well as within, Revin is determined to protect Corraçao. With the help of his cousin Jeskil, and some wholly unexpected allies, Revin must find a way to thwart the enemies of the state and preserve whatever he can of the crippled Corraçian monarchy. 

Magic, love, death, and intrigue beset the kingdom – the effects of which ripple through the generations to come.

A sexy and emotional story about two best friends that secretly fall in love, but struggle to keep a heartbreaking secret from tearing them apart. 
 
 
 
When I met Greg Foster, the straight tight end for the Portland Pirates, the rookie needed a friend to bring him out of his shell. There was more to the shy twenty-two-year-old bookworm than met the eye, and I was the perfect person for the task. My roommate and best friend, Christian, was involved with the Pirates QB, so a new friend to hang out with was good. 
 
 
 
I pushed down my attraction to him and became the best friend he ever had. We bar-hopped all over Portland and played video games in our apartments. We even loved the same indie band from Seattle. 
 
 
 
Then we fucked up when we fell in love. And by fucked up, I mean we got married even though we knew our marriage had to remain a secret. 
 
 
 
No one knew about us. Not even our closest friends. And every time they asked, we gave them the same line . . . we're just friends. 
 
 
 
And ultimately, the reason for that secret would tear us apart. Now, here I was three years after meeting him, and wasn't sure how to survive without him. He was the love of my life, and I was his. 
 
 
 
Contains mature themes.
