Grimstone Hollow has been hidden behind a magical Veil since 1743 - a place where orcs run the garage, a six-inch pixie librarian will bite your thumb off for returning a book late, and the woman who fed me pie turns out to be a two-hundred-year-old gargoyle in reading glasses.

My car died on a road that doesn't exist.

My GPS quit. My phone has no signal. And the town I stumbled into is full of monsters.

Not the metaphorical kind.

Grimstone Hollow has been hidden behind a magical Veil since 1743 - a place where orcs run the garage, a six-inch pixie librarian will bite your thumb off for returning a book late, and the woman who fed me pie turns out to be a two-hundred-year-old gargoyle in reading glasses.

Then there's her nephew.

Rhett Harlow is six-foot-eight, stone-skinned, winged, and hasn't spoken to a stranger in ten years. He sleeps on rooftops. He built half the town with his bare hands. And he's been watching me since the moment I walked through the diner door.

He never says a word.

Instead, every morning something in my little cabin has been repaired. A sticking flue. A loose porch board. A leaky faucet. Then one day I find a tiny stone bird carved so perfectly I can count every feather, waiting beside a clean dinner plate on my porch.

Gargoyles don't court with words.

They court with their hands.

The problem is, I only have twenty-eight days before the Hollow decides whether I leave...or become part of it forever.

I'm running from the controlling man who spent years making every decision for me. The last thing I should want is to stay in a town that might never let me go.

Instead, I'm falling for the quiet monster who would rather turn to literal stone than admit how he feels.

He once told me that stone remembers every touch.

That even after two hundred years, it would remember mine.

For the first time in a very long time, staying somewhere feels less frightening than leaving.

I just need to make sure it's my choice.
