Overview

Deacon knows he'll never be good enough for the pretty boy that dances in a cage. But that doesn't mean he can't enjoy watching him.

Deacon is content with his life the way it is. He has a cozy, little apartment that's just right and a steady job tending bar at one of the hottest gay clubs in town. There's only one person who makes him feel unsatisfied and restless.

Monroe.

A boy so beautiful that men literally pay for him to merely exist in their presence. Deacon admires him from afar, yearning for him. But how could someone like Monroe ever want someone like Deacon?

But just maybe there's something that Deacon can offer Monroe that no other man can.

***The Dancer and the Bear is a standalone friends-to-lovers m/m romance with hurt/comfort, a slight age gap, and lots of sweet.
