When Stone Loves Flesh

Stone doesn’t choose sides… until someone makes him want to. Fifty years after magic and machinery collided, the realms balance on the edge of war. Garrick, a gargoyle carved from the old world, has spent decades as a silent observer — bound to neither faction, loyal to no one. Then he meets you. A person whose charm hides dangerous secrets, whose cause could tip the fragile peace, and whose presence stirs something in Garrick he thought long buried. Drawn into your orbit, Garrick finds himself navigating a maze of shifting political alliances, whispered political betrayals, and a pull that feels perilously like love. In a world where every choice has consequences, the gargoyle who swore to remain neutral must decide if remaining that way will keep him safe… or cost him the one connection he never expected to find.
