When it came to love, Rusty had resigned himself to never being enough, and Gem knew he would always be too much. Turns out, they were both wrong.

As a Pyclon from Lust, Rusty learned early the cruel rules of the Pentagram. Happiness is for the privileged. Hope for the weak. And absolutely nothing comes free. So he accepts a life of happy enough, of good enough, of just… enough. Anything more is impossible for someone like him.

That is, until he meets Gemae Akyllo.

With a brain that never rests and an ass that won't quit, Gem is objectively a lot. His physical size is rivaled only by that of his personality—neither of which he will ever apologize for—but there's a cost. He's fun for a night, chosen first for a good time, but come morning, his bed is cold and empty. Always wanted, but never kept.

That is, until he meets Rusty Róisyn.

Rusty never wanted love, and Gem doesn't need it. But together, they find it all the same.

Join Gem and Rusty and the rest of the eccentric staff of the Passing Through Cafe in Nik Knight's rom-com, urban fantasy series, full of found family, absurd antics, healing hope, and a love that takes their hearts by storm.

Great characters, great found family. I laughed out loud, I cried and I fell in love with their chosen family. Gem and Rusty have been my favourite couple but I've loved them all.

I just love them so much

I love this series. Gem is my favourite character, and I've been waiting for his story. Rusty though, he's the one you end this book utterly in love with.

Hilarious and Heartbreaking

I listened to the first book and only continued on to this book because of Michael Leslie’s hilarious portrayal of Gem (and the other characters). Made me laugh out loud so many times. Never thought I’d fall in love with a spider demon but here we are.

Michael Leslie should get a raise

Gem is the best character ever written. Seriously he is hysterical. I laughed so much throughout this book. Rusty is such a care bear!
