Muse

Bex Harmin's muse hounds her. Most writers wouldn't mind that but most writers' muses aren't as visible and vocal as Bex's muse, Adder. Adder's the aetherial embodiment of everything she's ever wanted in a man with one glaring exception. He isn't real. Not how it counts. Not that romance figures into her life at all.

At her first big convention as an author, Bex has a table full of books and cool merchandise to sell. She's determined to make a name for herself until she discovers the dealers' room is overbooked and she's been crammed into the walk of fame with all the actors and famous writers where no one is interested in meeting an author they've never heard of. Except for Daniel Quick, the most famous voice actor around.

Daniel takes an interest in Bex and her books and he quickens her pulse as well. It's the first time in a long time a human man's set her imagination aflame and not the aetherial being who can't leave her alone. Adder doesn't consider the competition friendly and he's out to prove there's only room for one muse in Bex's life.
