Honey
by Mariel Pomeroy
Mariel Pomeroy writes with lyrical yet visceral prose that makes you feel every emotion. The shadow daddy MMC and the healing journey of the FMC create a romance that is as devastating as it is beautiful. The worldbuilding across multiple realms is immersive and the found family dynamics add real warmth to the darkness.
