Transcending Phoenix
In a world where discrimination and segregation are the standard, can tradition be changed through transcendence?
Raised in a world of segregation and discrimination, Phoenix Ashe stands on a precipice. He is an Elitist Masc, destined to become mayor of his prefecture. His lineage is revered for its singular preference in matters of the heart and loins. All he must do is make a seminal deposit during the twin-moon solstice to secure his legacy. While contemplating the enormity of the transaction he’s about to complete, he meets the irreverent Tristan Faire.
Tristan is the renowned Femme attendant for Seminal Depository. It’s his job to entice and satisfy the prefecture’s Mascs, harvesting their seminal fluids for storage until requested for conception. He enjoys his work and looks forward to someday making a home with a suitable mate. What he doesn’t need is to fall in love with a client who deems Tristan a second-class citizen.
Mascs for mascs and Femmes for femmes. It's the way of their world. Tristan can’t hope to transcend the ingrained beliefs of the arrogant Phoenix and win his heart.
But the Divinity has other ideas, and she works in mysterious ways. Will a haughty Masc and irrepressible Femme challenge the prefecture’s social mores and prejudices to find happiness?

Sometimes you need a book that's purely an escape from real life. This book fits the bill. Great world building and the sex was hot. I'd love more.

** 3.5 Stars **
Solid story with a pretty interesting world building. I really enjoyed all the varied characters. The main problem I have with this novella is that there is WAY TOO MUCH sex for my taste. I would have liked to know more about Phoenix and Tristan dealing with the ups and downs of their future life together but despite this I liked it!
