The Solstice Cabin Flos Magicae 4 1st Edition by Arden Powell ISBN B0BN6W753D

Six months ago, David’s best friend disappeared from the city. Now, David has found him tucked away in a secluded cabin in the heart of the Great White North. Amaruq begs David not to ask why he left without saying goodbye, but David can’t forgive the panic and heartache Amaruq put him through. Not without an explanation. And with winter closing in, David can’t exactly turn around and go straight back home.

Amaruq has always kept his personal life closely guarded. Between his parents’ mysterious disappearance twenty years earlier, his powers that only come out in the cold, and his reason for abandoning his comfortable city job, David hardly knows him.

As the snow piles up and the nights grow colder, Amaruq’s secrets gradually come to light, and David realizes he has only ever scratched the surface of who Amaruq really is. He has until the spring thaw to learn Amaruq’s story and understand the man he barely recognizes anymore—and find the nerve to confess his own feelings, and tell his best friend why he couldn’t just let him go.
