Handsome Devils

As Melvin watched Nikolai's train pull away, he turned to begin his part of their plan to create a safe place for effeminate men and other non-conforming individuals. They would create a community free of persecution, away from the political climate they knew all too well.

Through their deep and loving union, Melvin and Nikolai realize the power of their energetic connection, a blessing from the beyond brought to reality by Melvin's ability to journey in different dimensions using his shamanic skills. They discover that Melvin is to magic what Nikolai is to science.

While Nikolai works to build their dream in New York, Melvin strives to save the Austrian men in danger of being surgically altered from their minds, as was the preference of the wealthy families in power. When news of Richard von Krafft-Ebing's "cure" for homosexuality is announced, Melvin knows he is running out of time. With the church and government embracing "Conversion Therapy," their plan becomes a race against time.

As Melvin works to save the young men from their fate, his magic evolves. When the Austrian government and the toxic heteronormative forces of the day that saw queer expression as a moral failing begin to show their true colors, Melvin reveals a few secrets of his own: his natural clairvoyant abilities, werewolf connections, and moonbeam eyes.

If you love historical fantasy fiction with a twist of gay romance, you'll love Handsome Devils, the first book in The Language in Light series-a series designed to challenge your thinking and open you to new possibilities.
