New lover. New city. New dangers.

Wand’ring Minstrel Jimothy Redwing is used to life on the road, living by the words and music that are his stock in trade. Although comfortable finding his way alone, he’s always amenable to a friendly stranger who knows the lay of the land.

Ricky Lennox is smart, funny, handsome, and very amenable.With a place to stay, a sexy new lover, and some local business contacts, Jimothy looks forward to delivering the letters in his care—including a message for the local ruler—and earning a bit of coin with his music before moving on.

Ricky’s declaration that he’s interested in more than just a one-night tryst starts Jimothy thinking about settling into a life of perfect harmony. But things hit a sour note when he learns his lover’s true identity—and exactly what’s in the epistle to Kanbec’s ruler.

Jimothy’s journey turns out to be far more complicated than he could have dreamed, and as dangerous as any epic ballad. For himself—and for Ricky.
