Synopsis
Fairytales and Myths for the Modern

The modern age is devoid of magic.
Or is it?
How else could a stolen guitar or a

What but magic could spark romance at a

Six fairytales and myths are given a
contemporary MM twist in this collection of stories, proving that
sometimes the mundane can be magical too.
