I’m super enjoying my relisten. Curtis Michael holland and Alex Kydd play the perfect Alek and Ian 🥹

“You’re such a good lad, crying for me because you love me so much. What’s your color, Blakely?” “Green,” Asher said on a long exhale, and licked his bottom lip. Lev caressed Asher’s cheek. “Kneel for me.” The command injected heat into Asher’s veins as he lowered to his knees right there on the wood floor, sat back on his heels, pressed his palms against his thighs, and looked up the length of Lev’s decadent body. “Mm. Look how obedient you are, how sweetly you listen. You’re so pretty down there on your knees for me.”

What Death Forgets is out now and available on KU and in paperback & hardcover.

Behold the delicious spicy art inspired by a scene in WHAT DEATH FORGETS where Asher asks Lev to fuck his mouth until he cries and then use his tears for lube. 🤯. Lev doesn't like to break his toys, though, so he insists upon using tears *and* lube.

I sorta haven't been here in a while and figured what better way to let y'all know that What Death Forgets is out in the world than with this post. See the threads to follow for more info <3

A colorful graphic review of the book What Death Forgets by Thea Verdone. The cover art shows two men kissing under a gothic, moonlit sky. Around the cover are review elements: At the top, emojis show “How I felt” — heart eyes, crying face, flushed sweating face, and teary-eyed smile. On the left, chili pepper icons indicate high spice, and a grimacing face icon notes “Angst Level High.” On the right, text lists tropes: “Hurt comfort, Age gap, Gothic tale.” At the bottom, a row of five red hearts suggests a five-star rating.

OMG @theaverdone.bsky.social has done it again!! A fantastic gothic romance perfect for spooky season. #mmromance #mmromancereads #mmbooksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/8834...

WDF is an MM Modern Gothic Romance
🎨 master painter x art prodigy protege
🏰 castle surrounded by moors
🌊 a hungry ocean that swallows the land around Lichenmoor during high tide
🖤 forced proximity

They have so much conflict to overcome and then end up complementing each other perfectly.

I think my favorite part about this couple is how they both take care of each other despite the age gap.

Lev is so doting and comforting when Asher is anxious and Asher is just as caring and patient in return.
