Seven years of yearning can do terrible things to a person.

For Aisen, a brilliant but emotionally guarded surgeon, seven years have done nothing to heal his most beautiful bruise. 

For Evelyn, a clever and compassionate midwife, seven years have only made her heart burn more fiercely for the one person she’s not supposed to love. 

Once separated by war and duty after a single night of forbidden passion, Aisen and Evelyn are given a second chance on a snowy Yuletide Eve. A chance to learn how to be vulnerable enough to accept love again. A chance to heal through small acts of kindness. Amidst medical melodrama, secret gift exchanges, raw confessions, and magic-fueled shenanigans, they must confront their pasts and decide if their simmering connection is worth risking professional ruin and defying their deepest vows. 

This is a story about finding your guiding star when you’ve been sailing in the dark for too long.

"A Remedy for the Sensible Heart" is a cozy standalone tale taking place within the canon of “As Boundless as the Sea”. Set in the magical city of Fabinmore- a Gaslamp Fantasy analog for Regency London -it can be enjoyed by new readers to the "Boundless" serial and fans of Historical Fantasy Romance, traditional Historical Romance, Romantasy, and Epic Fantasy. It will especially appeal to fans of the Forbidden Romance and Second Chance tropes who like their reconciliations spicy, their settings whimsical, their main characters older and just a little more worldly, and their happy endings filled with hope.
