    Summary

    "But I'm not just asking for myself," Hans continued, quieter. "If people start to wonder about the lack of an heir, it won't be me they turn on, we both know that. Jitka's reputation—she'll be worse than ruined when the gossip starts to come."

    Or, when the heir to Rattay still can't sire a child one year into marriage, he comes begging for Henry's help. Henry thinks the task is simple, if insane: shoot a few loads in Jitka, then make like the wind so nobody suspects him.

    Unfortunately for Hans, nothing is nearly ever so simple.

    Summary

    Henry Skalitz knows fire season at Yosemite National Park is not something to take lightly from his years as a ranger stationed in the park. Smoke on the horizon is the first sign that everything can change in an instant.

    Hans Capon was never meant to stay. A wealthy donor who thinks the world revolves around him, he’s a temporary presence in a place built on endurance.

    But as the valley heats up and the line between duty and desire thins, Henry finds himself protecting more than the land he loves. And when fire finally comes, both men must decide what remains after smoke and ash.

    Summary

    Thirteen years after the fall of Skalitz, Henry returns to a world changed—and to Hans Capon, who has changed even more, a shadow of the man Henry once knew. What begins as a quiet reunion becomes a slow, painful reckoning: of choices made, futures lost, and the kind of love that never truly dies.
    It is a story of quiet devotion, of one man returning not to reclaim, but to remind. Together they help each other find meaning again—not through grand gestures, but through presence, memory, and the courage to mourn.

    I will not ruin you, Hans Capon.

    The last words whispered in misty morning air stilled by duty and longing for something he could never have.

    Summary

    Sir Hans Capon has grown into a lonely man. Sad, bitter, and far from the happy, mindless Lordling he used to be; having never found anyone to ever truly love him.

    Until Rattay gets a new Captain of the Guards. Henry of Skalitz- quiet, hardened by years of endless battles; having never met anyone to love after losing his home.

    They meet. And, throughout the months, they bring each other back to life again.
