Years ago, Martin Dyer nearly died in the woods outside Everlasting. A beautiful, inhuman creature saved his life, but Martin has done his best to forget it ever happened. He spends his time in a haze of weed as he avoids his emotionally abusive mother—and the way he feels about men. Martin is already a weirdo in his isolated small town; he doesn't need a sexuality crisis, too. He's a mess, but someone—or something—always seems to take care of him, usually a tall, sarcastic deputy by the name of Ian Forrester.No one knows much about Ian, which is how he and his family have preferred it since before Everlasting existed. Ian has resigned himself to a lonely life. He might dream of Martin, but it's only that—a dream. Martin doesn't like men, and even if he did, he doesn't like Ian. No one does, because Ian keeps his secret, and his distance, by being prickly.But the dragons and their magic have returned to Everlasting, shaking the entire town and leaving Martin questioning what he might be able to have if he sobers up and faces the truth. Now, anything seems possible, even a happily ever after for two men who never expected one.Being(s) in Love:Magical creatures known as beings emerged from hiding amid the destruction of the First World War. Since then they've lived on the margins of the human world as misunderstood objects of fear and desire. Some are beautiful, others fearsome and powerful. Yet for all their magic and strength, they are as vulnerable as anyone when it comes to matters of the heart.
