First and Foremost, obviously it was meant for me to read this book. For the book I read before this one; it's main characters were Sasha and Miller. With that said....I really enjoyed this book. It had the growing chemistry between Cole and Harlowe and it had the mystery of the 'secret admirer'.Harlowe has a deformity on his face which he is very self conscious about, hiding behind a mask. Cole is a nobleman who loves Harlowe. He doesn't see him as the man with 'the face' but as the man who is a good companion, an inventor and someone he can hold intelligent conversations. Will Cole be able to finally confess to Harlowe? Will the secret admirer be enough to give him that final push or will he just assume defeat and regret it??You'll have to read to find out. I found this story on Amazon Kindle for free to my surprise because it was written beautifully but am grateful 'cos I discovered a wonderful writer!The story is about Cole who is a noble and is on love with Harlow, Harlow who is a disfigured (because of an accident) novelty box maker. I love these guys, and the way Sasha wrote this story is so clear, I can even visualise Harlow....working in the back of a shop with his mask on his face in total focus on his project...and Cole watching him quietly in the corner at times....This story is short, sweet, and incredibly romantic...it left me all dreamy....
What do You think about The Novelty Maker (2013)?
Charming and sweet, this novelette read like a lovely bedtime story for me. :)
