HOME SWEET PALACE
Elian Rowe never expected to work inside a palace.
Raised in a small village with his mother and seven siblings, Elian has always been content with the simple things in life-family, hard work, and having enough food on the table.
So when he's given the opportunity to become a servant in the royal palace, he promises himself one thing:
Don't screw this up.
Unfortunately, that's easier said than done.
Between impossible expectations, palace politics, a jealous fellow servant determined to sabotage him, and a spoiled princess who seems to have a complaint for everything, Elian's first week quickly turns into a disaster.
And then there's Crown Prince Kaelen Ardent.
Cold. Stubborn. Perfectionistic. Proud.
The kind of prince who can silence an entire room with one look.
Elian wants absolutely nothing to do with him.
At least, that's what he tells himself.
But as Elian slowly becomes part of the prince's household, something unexpected begins to happen. The more time they spend together, the more Elian notices the person hiding underneath Kaelen's polished royal exterior.
And the more Kaelen tries to convince himself that Elian is simply another servant...
the harder it becomes to imagine the palace without him.
But princes don't get to choose who they love.
They get arranged marriages.
Political alliances.
Duties.
Crowns.
And eventually, Kaelen will have to make the most difficult choice of his life:
A kingdom... or the boy who taught him what it means to have a home.
A slow-burn BL fantasy about palace drama, secret feelings, rivalry, betrayal, family, ridiculous situations, and two people who were never supposed to fall for each other.
