    About this ebook

    Companion to A Demon for Midwinter

    Can a rock star and a half-demon ever get married?

    That question’s been on Justin Moore’s mind a lot lately, especially now that life’s going so well. He’s moved in with Kris Starr, his very own rock-and-roll legend; he has a new job he loves; Kris’s career is taking off all over again; and he’s happier than he can ever remember being.

    There is something he wants, though. Justin might be half-demon, but he’s also half-human, and he rather wistfully likes the thought of the whole human ritual of marriage: standing together and saying vows. But Kris has never mentioned the idea. So Justin can’t ask, not when everything else is already wonderful.

    Kris Starr never planned to settle down, that’s true -- he never imagined he’d want anything other than the rock and roll life. And he isn’t convinced he’s great at domesticity. But he’s pretty sure his half-demon boyfriend wants a very human commitment. And he’s beginning to think finally, maybe, he wants that, too.

      Sunlight and Gold

      By K.L. Noone

      Justin’s rock-star boyfriend had a secret.

      Justin knew he did; for an impressively talented empath, Kris Starr was honestly terrible at not projecting emotions. The question wasn’t so much whether Kris was hiding something, but what that something might be.

      He didn’t mind, though. Kris loved him. So he could wait. And he was happy.

      In sunlight, one leg dangling over a sofa-arm, reading through a proposed manuscript about feminist punk bands and witches and history, Justin Moore let himself laugh aloud.

      He was happy. He knew he was. He felt it in his bones.

      He knew Kris had a good secret; whatever it was, it hummed unspoken and delicious and anticipatory as Midwinter’s Eve.

      He ran a hand through his hair, making it stand out more wildly, scraps of unearthly flame through fingertips. He wanted to hug his laptop and his boyfriend and the entire world.

      In this brilliant new world Justin Moore trusted Kris Starr. Forever would.

      He couldn’t say he always had. Not entirely. Back when he’d been assigned an iconic if aging piece of rock-and-roll history to manage, he’d known Kris was a powerful empath. He’d known he himself was the one keeping a secret, then.

      He’d been excited—who wouldn’t be, working with the legendary Kris Starr of Starrlight?—and he’d been honest about the parts of himself that he could share: love of coffee, love of music, love of improbable hair dye and eyeliner, determination to do his best for Kris and Kris’s sagging later career. But he hadn’t told Kris
