Of Bards and Quests and Falling in Love by Rita A Rubin

Iris Ozveth is quite content spending their days surrounded by the books in their shop, Tails and Tomes, and their cat, Fable.

But when Tails and Tomes is under threat of closing down, Iris will do everything they can to keep that from happening. Including stepping out of their quiet and comfortable life to take part in an adventure to find the legendary treasure hoard of the pirate captain Blood Eye.

Iris will have to deal with thieving bards, face down ogres and goblins, delve into dangerous dungeons, and, most daunting of all, reckon with newfound feelings for their handsome knight companion and long-time friend, Florent.
