'The sort of story you want to climb inside so you can hang out with all the characters. Hilarious, warm and kind!' Louie Stowell, author of the Loki series In a dark alleyway in an alternative Elizabethan London, Fang's heart stops. Moments later, it magically restarts again. A grumpy traveller from the Ming empire, Fang is disappointed to discover that not only is he still alive, but he's also become another creature entirely: an immortal. The first of his kind.
That is until he meets Lazare de Quitte-Beuf, an annoyingly cheerful – and undeniably handsome – Frenchman who shares the same curse. But in a world where immortality is a coveted commodity, Fang and Lazare quickly realise that eternal life is far from a blessing. With both of their futures at risk, will they ever admit that they have finally found something – or someone – to live for?Tropes:Grumpy x SunshineFound familyDragons, vampires and supernatural beingsMild spice
