Felix was raised by a family who upheld traditional medicine over all modern medicine – so when he turned 18 and started transitioning, Felix had to run away from home if he wanted to live his authentic life. Now, ten years later, he’s surprised when his aunt passes away and leaves him a house, far from the place he left. 

Leaving an unfulfilling life in London to give country living a try, Felix is soon overwhelmed by the amount of books on folk medicine and gardening his aunt left to him. Wanting to reconnect with her memory, Felix decides to give the family craft he’s always shunned a try, and soon the locals are asking him for the remedies they had relied on when his aunt was alive.

One of those locals is Declan, the handsome deliveryman who immediately catches Felix’s eye. Declan is shy and reclusive, but Felix manages to chip away at Declan’s walls and soon discovers his secret: Declan is a werewolf who loses control on full moons, and only a potion Felix’s aunt used to make can help him gain back that control. Felix is determined to make this potion correctly and help Declan… and maybe fall in love in the process?
