Stalking Not Required

When a sunshine demon meets an antisocial star-chaser destined to go insane... What could possibly go wrong?Ro Cromwell is a demon who yearns to be a good person, hence the reason he’s currently in therapy. Unfortunately, his demonic urges include setting dumpsters on fire when he’s overwhelmed, stealing items that have no relevance to him, and a surprising new one: stalking an elusive woman with shimmering silver hair.Alorra Seren is cursed to be a rare star-chaser. The ability to collect magical stardust is a closely guarded secret. A dangerous truth she planned on taking to her grave, if only she didn’t excel at making remarkably terrible decisions.In an effort to make better life choices, she decides to stay away from (rather than hook-up with) the hot new bartender at her favorite club. Truly devastating for Alorra, his eager-to-please personality fills all the cracks in her armored heart. Keeping her distance becomes impossible when she realizes she isn’t bothered by him showing up in places he shouldn’t-like a random cornfield where she’s harvesting stardust. When Alorra is blackmailed by people who want to use her star-chaser abilities, Ro takes matters into his own fiery hands, landing himself in a heap of trouble. Now Alorra has to decide between risking it all to save him, or protecting her secrets to save herself.Sparks fly in this banter-filled paranormal romcom featuring a black cat FMC and golden retriever MMC, idiots to lovers, and bi4bi love in a queer-normative world. Mental health concerns and generational trauma play a significant role in this novel, and although there are emotional moments, it is overall light-hearted and fun with no third act breakup.
