Happy last Thursday of July! We’re celebrating with three new short story releases!
Title: Entanglement
Series: Sunrise Over the Black Forest
Author: Lyn Weaver
m/m, established relationship of convenience, mutual pining, aren’t roadtrip invitations always platonic clearly there’s no feels here
Two years into their not-relationship, Sevan disappears for a week, only to appear at Kel’s church with a simple invitation: for Kel to accompany Sevan on a two-week trip to the edge of the Black Forest to observe the forest expanding its borders.
How does a cursed forest become larger?
When the trees get up and relocate, of course…
Title: Little Witch’s Apothecary
Series: May of the Mountain
Author: J. D. Harlock
studio ghibli meets fandom vibes, modern with magic, love potion shenanigans
Desperate for money to pay off her debts, May opens a small apothecary stand in Jdiedet. It’d be far more enjoyable work if the clientele didn’t constantly break into her manga reading time…but she supposes she’ll cook up a love potion for the local librarian. If she has to.

Title: Awkward and Oblivious
Author: R. L. Houck
f/f, modern, fluffy, bonding over a sick pet
When the trucker Alex finds a sick puppy abandoned by the side of the road, she races to get the poor dog to a veterinarian that can help. Several appointments later, the now-adopted Mako is on the mend and Alex has a favorite vet office.
Now, if only Alex could figure out how to get the oblivious Dr. Anna to respond to her awkward attempts to ask her on a date…
