Miles A. Bennett

Eliot has spent his life hiding. One slip, one moment of lost control, and the fox inside him threatens to break free muddy pawprints on the porch, a flash of a tail, whispers spreading fast through a small town that loves its gossip. Keeping the secret costs him more every day, but if anyone found out, the fragile life he’s built would vanish.

Then Noah arrives. A wildlife photographer with sharp eyes and a heart too kind, he’s everything Eliot can’t let himself trust. Yet every laugh at the kitchen table, every late-night talk, every glance that lingers chips away at Eliot’s defenses. Noah notices too much and Eliot’s excuses are running thin.

When a midnight escape goes wrong and the truth spills out, Eliot braces for rejection. But instead of fear, Noah offers something he’s never had: acceptance, belonging, the comfort of finally being seen.

Between nosy neighbors, endless gossip, and the constant risk of losing control, their bond is tested at every turn. Can Eliot stop running long enough to claim the man who sees him as he is?

Or will fear keep him hiding from the love that finally feels real?

Part of the Otherworldly Hearts series, this story brings its own magical twist to love and laughter.

Otherworldly Hearts proves romance can bloom anywhere through time, across magic, even out among the stars. This clean MM romcom series pairs oddball characters with laugh-out-loud disasters and tender connections in worlds where the impossible feels almost ordinary.

Spells backfire, ghosts meddle, shifters wrestle instincts they’d rather ignore, and aliens stumble their way through the messy art of love. Each standalone story mixes comedy, warmth, and a romance that stays sweet but never boring.

Sometimes the strangest places lead to the most unexpected happily ever afters.
