A picture of the front and back of Sweet & Wild by Alex Larkspur.
The front, on the right-hand side, features a young man, Micah, kneeling in a field of purple flowers. He holds a bundle of purple flowers in one hand while reaching to gather more with his other hand. He has peach skin, golden hair, and brown eyes. He wears a white shirt, brown pants, and a wide-brimmed straw hat with flowers woven through. Behind him, there is a verdant forest of trees. Bees buzz around the man as he looks down towards his work. The title, Sweet & Wild, is above him and the authorβs name, Alex Larkspur, is below him.
The back, on the left side, show another figure standing among the trees. This is Terran, a tall man with tan skin, brown hair that trails into green, and antlers protruding from his head. He is wearing shades of brown and watching Micah. There is also a blurb for the book which reads:
Micah Harlow has just moved to Roseyard, a small town on the edge of a mysterious forest. Filled with hope for a new start here, Micah ventures into the woods to forage and, of course, make an offering to the guardian spirit within.
However, this forest is unlike any that Micah has been in before. The spirit himself appears and takes an interest in Micah, helping him to find whatever he needs and spending time with him. To complicate things further, the town of Roseyard is far different than Micah expects. The citizens call the guardian spirit within the woods a beast, and they seem to be held under the thumb of one affluent man.
In order to survive and thrive, Micah will be pulled further into the magic of the forest and its spirit, all while cultivating relationships within Roseyard. And hopefully, heal the wounds of his damaged heart.
Beneath the blurb, there is a graphic of a bee!
I revealed the front cover of Sweet & Wild earlier today, but here is the entire wrap-around as well! You just have to see who's lurking in the woods!
Sweet & Wild is an MM Fantasy Romance that is coming out July 29th!
