Alsam and Sier by Lewd Slughetti
Sap and Spile is a novella length paranormal romance book by author Vera Valentine. The 3 main romantic characters are Mila (a human woman), Alsam, and Sier (both Evergreen Dryads / Tree Shifters).
This story originally appeared in the Into the Woods anthology, published in March of 2022, as "Sap, Snow, and Spile." While the tone of the story is more serious, it was originally born out of a tongue-in-cheek idea for dryads that were secretly Christmas trees. The two male main characters' names are drawn from evergreen trees - (B)alsam and (Fra)sier Fir.
Content Considerations: This story contains references to marital cheating (previous, not perpetrated by the main characters), marital estrangement, homicide, divorce, a fatal car accident, death, ingestion of fun bodily fluids (both while aware and while unaware), praise, and group activities. The two main male characters have a prior loving, established relationship with one another.
Blurb: In the unfamiliar forests of Vermont, Mila finds herself out of her comfort zone in more ways than one. While cleaning up the mess her estranged husband left behind, a late spring snow storm threatens her life. Her unlikely rescuers aren’t just living in the woods, however: they’re an intrinsic part of them. Old bonds, new debts, and ancient magic flow like snowmelt in this short, steamy tale of love and lust among the trees.
