Bourgeois' Books

Product Details

Love doesn’t follow a script. It grows in the quiet moments, the broken places, and the brave decisions to try again.

In this powerful and emotionally resonant collection, B Alan Bourgeois weaves together four unforgettable stories that explore queer love in all its depth—from magical beginnings to soul-deep healing and the hard-won trust that comes after.

In Gift of the Magi, a lonely candle maker casts a wish into wax and flame—and finds that magic answers in ways he never expected.

In The Apron and the Pen, a writer mourning the one who slipped away tries to reshape grief into story, discovering that some flames don’t die—they evolve.

In Stay, a submissive reckons with betrayal in the name of love and begins the slow, defiant work of rebuilding self-worth, one honest truth at a time.

In Bound by Trust, a seasoned leatherman and a curious bartender navigate consent, mentorship, and desire, crafting a connection forged not in fantasy—but in truth.

Whether you’ve been in love, been broken by it, or are still learning how to stay open to it, these stories invite you into the sacred, messy, and radiant spaces where queer hearts learn to love—and trust—themselves again.

This isn’t just romance. This is love, reclaimed.
