Tell me a bit about the first time your character met someone important to them.

This could be a close friend, love interest, mentor, etc.

Did they like each other right away? Did they warm over time?

Over a forest background, a picture of Sweet & Wild by Alex Larkspur is next to a list of elements in the book. They are: - MM Fantasy Romance - Sunshine MC - Forest Magic - Mysterious Spirits in the Woods - Devotion as a Love Language - Witchy Beekeeping - Healing and Growth - Cozy Adjacent The cover description: A young man, Micah, kneels in a field of purple flowers. He holds a bundle of purple flowers in one hand while reaching to gather more with his other hand. He has peach skin, golden hair, and brown eyes. He wears a white shirt, brown pants, and a wide-brimmed straw hat with flowers woven through. Behind him, there is a verdant forest of trees. Bees buzz around the man as he looks down towards his work. The title, Sweet & Wild, is above him and the author’s name, Alex Larkspur, is below him.
