Break the Spell
Bartholomew Hollen, professor of defensive magic at Utrecht University, just wanted a no strings, no feelings, no attachment hook up. Nothing messy like when his ex-boyfriend tried to feed him to a demon. Bart's heart, however, has other ideas. But when he has a vision of the future and sees his hookup dying at his feet from yet another demon, Bart does the only sensible thing—he sneaks out like a thief in the night.

Not like he'll see the guy again.

Caelinus Reinhold has done something no elf has done before—become the professor of creative magic at Utrecht University. His first day should be magical, except Cael can't stop thinking about the hot mage he hooked up with the night before who then snuck out while he slept. Whatever. His loss.

He'll never see the jerk again, anyway.

Things get awkward fast when the department assigns Bart to be Cael's mentor. Despite their rocky start, neither can deny that fate wants them together. But Bart's premonitions all end in tragedy for the pair. No matter how he tries to change the future, Cael is always a casualty. How can Bart follow his heart when Cael's death is sure to break it?

About the Author

After fifteen years of empowering young people to find their voices through drama, poetry, and literature as an award-winning speech and debate coach, Kirt Graves found his own voice as an audiobook narrator. He brings clarity, empathy, and humor to stories spanning dystopian sci-fi, urban and high fantasy, contemporary romance, and, most significantly, young adult fiction that reflects his own experience growing up gay in the Midwest. As an adult with depression, anxiety, ADHD, and OCD, Kirt hopes to destigmatize mental health disorders and neurodiversity by reframing atypical thinking as a superpower rather than a disability. He is an advocate for the inclusive casting of human narrators in audiobooks. Off-mic, Kirt is a graphic artist, a political junkie, and a theater director.
