When Earth Meets Rain — an adult sapphic fantasy romance by AJA & ARA ANDERTON

One silver arrow was supposed to end the legend.

Elara never laughed at her grandfather’s stories of the river-walkers: pale women with rain in their hair who appear when the moon turns the water silver. She listened. She waited.

Then one finally steps into range.

Elara draws. She releases. The silver-tipped arrow finds its mark.

But when she wades into the shallows and lays her hands on the wound, the dry heat of an Earth hunter meets the luminous cool of a Water woman — and steam rises where their skin touches.

The hunger that brought Elara to the river stops cold.

Hidden together in a cave behind the waterfall, hunter and water woman have three days to survive the people searching outside and the strange bond forming between them. Every touch leaves mist in the air. Elara knows how to take. Learning to ask is harder.

Across danger, healing, laughter and a kiss in the rain, possession must become protection — and wanting must become a choice they make together.
