Bared Country
The lake is dying. The ice is retreating. And beyond Tarnhold’s Wall, a country no living person has ever seen is emerging.
Ansel Kern survives by finding what others have lost—and concealing the two gifts that could destroy him. He can hear the thoughts of those around him. He can slow the world itself. In Tarnhold, people with Ansel’s abilities are not protected. They are Sent away.
Then Teodor Marsh arrives.
Powerful, guarded, and dangerously compelling, Teo is the first man who can touch Ansel’s mind as intimately as he touches his body. Their connection promises something neither believed possible, but it also threatens to expose secrets both have fought to keep.
Read the full description
As drought tightens its grip, desperate refugees gather beyond the Wall and Tarnhold’s rulers turn increasingly ruthless. Ansel and Teo discover that their forbidden bond may be the key to uncovering truths upon which the settlement—and its power—were built.
Trusting each other could cost them their freedom. Refusing could cost Tarnhold its future.
To survive the Bared Country, two men with dangerous gifts must decide whether love is their greatest vulnerability—or the one power strong enough to break a world built on fear.
BARED COUNTRY is an adult gay post-apocalyptic fantasy romance about forbidden abilities, hard-won trust, climate catastrophe, and the perilous intimacy of being truly known.
