The Beauty and His Beast

2025 | LGBTQ+ | Romance | Science Fiction/Fantasy

Everild, known far and wide as the Beast, is a warrior of unparalleled ferocity, revered by the king and feared by his enemies. His prowess in battle has earned him not only titles but also the king’s favor, and with it, the spoils of war. Everild expects lands, riches, and glory as his reward. What he does not expect is the king’s latest gift—a young cleric, an apprentice no less, to be his betrothed.

Camdyn has spent his life within the walls of the monastery until he is thrust into an arranged marriage with the most infamous warrior in the kingdom. The stories he’s heard of Everild have painted a picture of a monstrous man, a beast without equal, but what he finds upon meeting his betrothed is far different. Everild is not the brutal figure of war he imagined, but a man with an unexpected gentleness, one whose quiet kindness disarms Camdyn more than his battle-scarred reputation ever could.

In a world where loyalty is tested and the price of honor is steep, Everild and Camdyn must navigate their new roles all while the threat of betrayal hangs heavy over them.

The Beauty and His Beast is a gay romantic fantasy featuring an arranged marriage, size difference, and age difference.
