The Man on the Moon

Moon was never meant to be human. Once, he was the Moon itself: silent, eternal, orbiting his sunshine he could never touch. Now, after a dangerous bargain, he bleeds, aches, and walks among mortals.

Elisabeth runs a tavern, not a fairytale. She doesn't believe in myths, until one of them sits across her bar. Strange, sharp-eyed, and too haunting to ignore, Moon pulls her into a world of cursed bargains, dream magic, and enemies who move through shadows like knives.

But Levar, a sorcerer older than nightmares, has his eye on them both. Elisabeth becomes his pawn, and freeing her will cost Moon the only thing he has left to trade: his soul or his heart.

In a city whispering of witchcraft and a jungle where the sun is still worshiped, Moon must decide who he belongs to: the unreachable goddess he's chased for centuries, or the mortal girl who might burn brighter than them all.
