Alexander

By Harlowe Savage,

Book cover of Alexander

What is my book about?

A spicy, queer romance about Alexander the Great and his best friend Hephaestion. The first in a series about historical figures either rumored to be or confirmed to be queer, the Monarchs of Eros.

Alexander knew what was expected of him.

As son to the great Philip II of Macedon and next in line for the throne, he knew that one day he would need to take a wife and produce an heir of his own. But despite the best efforts of endless suitors, Alexander never understood desire; that is until his handsome best friend, Hephaestion, offered him something more tempting than anything he had ever experienced before.

Torn between duty and love, Alexander tries to navigate the intricacies of expanding an empire, discovering himself, and understanding what family and legacy mean to him.
