    About this ebook

    Mishka is a snow leopard shifter that plays lead guitar in the band The Dead Tuesdays. Now, that the band has finally found a place to settle permanently he has the opportunity to let his nerd out. Secretly, obsessed with all things Disney, Mishka has become a collector of sorts. Imagine, his surprise when a new item in his collection turns out to be something more.

    Azurak and Virak are genies who come from well to do families full of bigots. When they realized they were two parts of a triad and decided to actively start looking for their third, they were sealed away in a magic lamp for eternity. Each time a new owner receives the lamp without wishing them free, they lose hope, becoming cold-hearted and distant until eventually they find it hard to care about anyone or anything outside of their duo.

    Mishka has his work cut out for him when it comes to one of his mates. Azurak refuses to let himself hope and instead, closes himself off from everyone except Virak. Will Mishka be able to break the wall Azurak has built over centuries of imprisonment or will he fail, causing him to lose them both forever?

    Well Ezra isn't my real name obviously but I liked the name so I decided to use it. I live at home with my five dogs and one cat. I started out writing hetero romance novels but it wasn't where my heart lied. I adore all things paranormal and M/M is by far my favorite genre so I decided to start writing Paranormal Romances. There's a guaranteed happy ending with each of my books even if it may take some time for my guys to get there. I love each and every character on the page as if they were my own children. It sounds weird but that’s how I feel about them. ? I’ve been writing for as long as I can remember but only started actively pursuing it as a career three years ago when I decided to stop working in a salon and pursue writing full time. Since I published my first book in 2014 I have written and released nine other books with many more to come. My current list of projects is longer than my arm so I look forward to writing and creating new stories for my readers to enjoy ?

      The author didn't give a clear build-up of the relationship between the main characters.
      The interaction between all the characters were so dry and uninteresting there was no humour or real feelings to any part of this story that held my interest.As for the love scenes what a joke.
      When I cant even be bothered finishing this story that tells me to add this author to my don't bother reading this authors books.

    Years ago, I lost the only family I’d ever known. We lived in the mountains, away from civilization and for the most part, lived in our animal forms despite the danger of doing so, because winters were harsh. When our village was attacked the first time, we relocated to a small town in Russia, away from the mountains. However, our peaceful life didn’t last very long. Rogue wolves entered our area and tore my pride apart. I only survived because I’d gone hunting in my animal form. Finding them all dead when I returned was a shock. To this day, it still gives me nightmares.

    Suddenly an orphan at thirteen, I survived on the streets of the city by picking pockets and stealing food when I could. One day after being on the streets for years, I picked the wrong man’s pocket and ended up being recruited as a runner for the Bratva. For years, I delivered packages and the like, just to prove myself. Eventually, I moved up in the ranks and by the time I turned forty, I’d made as many friends as I had enemies. Only a few members knew about my animal half because they were also paranormals and we looked out for each other. When my lack of aging became a problem, they helped me fake my death and got me out of Russia.

    I consider them family and know that if I ever needed their help with anything, they’d come to my aid. For years after leaving Russia, I drifted aimlessly until one day, I met a man named Kira and found myself thrust into a group of loners who quickly became a second family to me. Among them, I’ve always been the stupid one. The one who must have something wrong with him because he acts like a child and does stupid things. My baby face and short stature doesn’t help matters. What they don’t know, is I didn’t get to be a child. From the time I could walk, I had to do my part for the sake of the village. That meant hunting, collecting firewood and anything else the older members of our pride deemed necessary. I didn’t get to play. Our survival was more important than the need for children to play silly games.

    After losing everything and being forced to grow up too soon, I live my life carefree. Life’s too short not to enjoy it. So, if that makes me stupid, or childish, then so be it. I’d rather be those things than be miserable. I just hope that my mate won’t think the same of me. It’s one thing to have friends tease you but it’s another thing entirely to have a mate reject you because of how you are. Still, I’d love to find my fated mate, even if it means facing rejection.

    It’s been just over a year since we decided to settle in Asphalt Bay. Having a permanent place to call home is just what we needed. Spending centuries as nomads without a place of our own to call home took a toll on all of us. Now though, with a steady gig in Venetian Hills, and a place of our own, we can focus on other things. Like maybe finding our mates. Kira, our band’s vocalist was the first to find his mate. Even though it’s been a year, no one else in the band has found a mate for themselves. Yet. Ever since Kira met Josh, I’ve been secretly praying for a mate of my own. Someone who’ll understand me and won’t make fun of my childish antics.

    Over the years, I’ve amassed a collection of sorts. I love movies and have enough money squirreled away to support my habit of collecting memorabilia from my favorite movies. Most of my collection is in a climate-controlled storage unit but I do have some things decorating the shelves of my room. Although, some items in my collection represent things from my favorite animated movies. Like the amulet and sword from Mulan and a stuffed racoon that looks like the one from Pocahontas. I’ve even got a glass slipper in my storage unit for Cinderella.

    One thing I don’t have, is a lamp like the one in
