A very enjoyable story about some of the members of two families that had known each other since they were very young at a masquerade party.  You'll find a little mystery, some romance, and some surprises along the way, so sit back and enjoy this intriguing story.

Loved it. The Phantom of the Opera's "Masquerade" song kept fluttering in my head every time someone mentioned masks. Flash of mauve, splash of puce, Fool and king, Ghoul and goose, Green and black, Queen and priest, Trace of rouge, Face of beast, Faaaaaaaaaaaaces~

Response from the author:

Thanks, Thirds.

Derek is the super-cute younger brother almost dragged to a fancy party. As it turns out he is very glad that he went!  A delightful piece, very nicely written.  Perfect for a Sunday morning read, lazing in bed before your “steampunk cowboy” demands your attention….. 

Excellent!
