WINGS OF DAWN

Life is a series of choices.

Sometimes we make those choices freely. Sometimes they're forced upon us.

And sometimes they lead to unforeseen consequences.

Even without his memories from his life before waking up in a destroyed library basement, Cole chose to help the mysterious organizations that came to his aid learn more about the forces that threaten their city. He helped them through all sorts of situations—some sticky, some steamy—but now, in the wake of betrayal, Cole and his chosen partner must navigate their lives together and rediscover whom they can trust. But everyone wants something. Cuan wants acceptance. Alexander wants validation. Bianca wants to find her brother. Az just wants to do his damn job. Cole wants to remember who the hell he is. All of them have choices to make. But when Cole learns the truth—about his memories, about what's really going on in the city, about the Order of Light and the Midnight Hunters—will those choices be vindicated, or will it all come crashing down?
It might take a little divine intervention—and some hands-on activity—to come through it all unscathed.

Join Cole and company on this sometimes-perilous, sometimes-amorous journey of self-discovery, healing, redemption, and affirmation as they endeavor to bring about a new dawn.

A Note from Cort About Content:

The Light and Midnight books are about queer identity and self-actualization. Characters suffer adversity, but the tone of the series is intended to be empowering, sex-positive, hopeful, and liberating. Additionally, the books interrogate the relationship between sex, spirituality, and religion, and this volume reframes some theological and spiritual concepts through a queer lens.

I believe in happy endings in every sense of the term, and so these books contain a very high level of heat: there is a great deal of suggestive language, as well as very explicit descriptions of physical bodies and of consensual sex between male partners.

In Wings of Dawn, there are some elements of the story that readers may find distressing, such as cases where characters suffer emotional abuse at the hands of their families, instances of religious aggression and discrimination, or cases in which power imbalances are misused. There is also a case in which one character speaks of sexual violence that happened to someone else in the distant past. Care has been taken to handle topics in as sensitive a way as possible to avoid gratuitously causing suffering to either characters or the reader.
