Once upon a time, Jeffrey fell in love with his best friend, Tamlin.
Jeffrey may work at Storyville bookstore, but he doesn't believe in happy endings -- not for himself. Tamlin is princely by nature, a heroic pure ray of sunshine. Jeffrey is an irascible grumpy cat, who would likely be cast as a villain's henchman. He knows Tamlin deserves someone far better; another prince, who will someday sweep him off his feet and carry him off into the sunset. His tenuous acceptance of the platonic status quo is shattered when Tamlin confesses he has a crush on someone. Who is this 'friend' Tamlin is romantically interested in? Can he convince Tamlin to banish them to the friend-zone, and consider dating Jeffrey instead?
Once upon a time, Tamlin fell in love with his best friend, Jeffrey.
Tamlin foolishly confessed to Jeffrey that he had a crush on a friend. Jeffrey's instant response was it's better to keep things platonic. Jeffrey must have figured out that the 'friend' is himself, and he let Tamlin down gently. How can Tamlin get over his romantic feelings, somehow put Jeffrey back in the friend-zone? And why did Jeffrey just ask him out, after he turned down Tamlin's same request?
It will take three copies of a cult classic fantasy novel, two bungled love confessions, and one meddling famous author, to get Jeffrey and Tamlin to realize that happy endings aren't just fictional -- they can be made real, if they properly use their words.
