Bright Spring

Can one prince's love shatter a god's curse? After playing a part in his brother’s death, Auro embraced the curse his father placed on him. He knows he doesn’t deserve to be saved. Every spring has been the same for four hundred years: Awaken, perform his duties as the god of spring, return to cursed slumber. He’s known nothing but service, solitude, and grief, until he stumbles upon a handsome stranger in his forest. Alexios has a curse of his own: a royal marriage and a destiny determined by others. When he finds himself lost and injured in the wild forest, a chance encounter with a shy, peculiar stranger shows him he’s not as helpless as he thought. Alexios coaxes Auro out of solitude and back into the world, but their time is running out: when spring ends, Auro will turn to stone. When an assassin comes for Alexios, Auro decides enough is enough—it’s time for him to break his curse and heal his family. Can Auro and Alexios break Auro’s curse and forge their own destiny? Or will time run out, returning Auro to cold, unfeeling stone? Bright Spring is the slowburn first book in Harmony of Seasons, a sword-and-sandal queer fantasy romance series.
