What it is

Can three lonely, wounded hearts make a whole?

Johan had resigned himself to spending his life alone. Until them. Until two sets of scared but fierce amber eyes peer at him through curtains of silky white hair, and Johan's heart takes on a new beat. A beat he can't ignore.

Despite escaping their captors, a dark cloud looms over Elias and Henrik's heads. They were bought and paid for, after all.

However, their luck appears to change when they cautiously accept the offer of a roof over their heads from a kind but silent shoemaker. Only, it was meant to be a stopping-off point, a place to regroup before they start their new life. They had each other, and they were not supposed to fall for him.

Struggling to recover from invisible wounds, the two elves can't always bear the weight of each other's burdens. But maybe he can . . .

When it becomes the talk of the town that a local, unassuming shoemaker is selling elf-made shoes, will they be able to evade their captor once more? More importantly, will they ever truly belong to themselves again?

Contains mature themes.
