Guarding the Gargoyle
July 2025
Some people want you to hide your darkness. The right ones help you wield it.
After being kicked out of my supernatural protection squad for being "too volatile," I was just discovering how retirement doesn't suit me. Then my grouchy gargoyle neighbour appears with an offer I can't refuse: to join his team in a prestigious competition, a treasure hunt for ancient, supernatural relics.
A scrappy lady berserker, a standoffish gargoyle nerd, a witch who doesn't seem to have any boundaries, and a mostly human team leader. We're a ragtag team if I've ever seen one.
Between vicious creatures that want to tear us apart, puzzles that could kill us if we're wrong, and someone sabotaging our every move, I'm starting to think retirement wasn't so bad.
But when my brooding gargoyle teammate looks at me like I'm the answer to ancient mysteries, dangerous becomes an understatement.
Some treasures are worth the risk. Some shields are worth lowering.
Guarding the Gargoyle is a standalone MF monster romance with a happily ever after. It’s a sweet, slow burn, featuring a gargoyle MMC and a berserker FMC. Also featuring: low angst, caretaking, forced proximity, and a found family of misfits.
Contains explicit language and scenes intended for readers aged over 18 and over.
