WAIT ACTUALLY??? Kind of. There’s the tragic love story that takes place in Monster House and then there’s this one novella called The House by Adrian Blue about a woman and the haunted manor she just moved into.

Anyone seeing the videos of migrants sobbing over their immigration appointments being cancelled and saying “they voted for this” is getting blocked bc no the non-citizens in Mexico did not vote for this. THEY CANT🗣️And lumping every Latino you see into the “bad” category is a very evil thing to do

Ian Haramaki 🏳️‍⚧️✨ @cometkins.bsky.social · Oct 28

Hi new follows! My name is Ian Haramaki, I'm a trans and mixed-JPN author of gay fiction. My debut novel MERCY. It's a dark but hopeful tale about a lonely priest in a small town finding love with a man whose curse he lifts. As the man's memories return, they realize he may not be entirely mortal...

A book cover. This cover has a black background with tiny white stars. The title text at the bottom reads “Mercy” with the name “Ian Haramaki” underneath it.

The majority of the cover is a pale man with dark curly hair wearing intricately patterned priest vestments depicting saints, gold swirls, black suns, and black and gold teardrops. Importantly, the vestments have a circular cutout over the chest.

Behind the figure’s head is a circle of gold, surrounded by a ring of gray snake scales, further surrounded by a gray 8 point star with black lines radiating from the center. Around the 8 point star is another ring of gold with white angel wings surrounding it. A pair of dark gray hands with gold freckles emerge from the ring of gold to cover the face and mouth of the main figure in an erotic manner.

Mercy's book cover in the center, surrounded by trope text. They read as follows: Boob window priest x mouthy bi angel. Love is healing. M/M Adult Romantasy. Cozy but also dark. Slavic inspired setting. Sun and Moon magic system. Slow burn for impatient people. Altar scene. Oh and the confessional too. "Touch him and [redacted]". So many pet names.

Mercy's cover with text above it. Out now in eBook, paperback, and hardcover. Audio available Janaury 28th.
