Winston the Third

Commitment was supposed to be a choice. Winston's wings never got the memo.Winston the Third's love life has survived six centuries of disasters, but it has never survived paperwork. When his own wings file for legal separation from Lola - citing an old marriage certificate none of them ever agreed to, and "continued interest presumed" - Winston learns that buried contracts don't stay buried. They wait for the right registry office.The trail leads to a wedding referral service dressed up as an ordinary ceremony hall, seven confiscated rings that haven't stopped whispering since evidence intake, and a name on old gold that Winston has spent centuries trying to forget. With Mags, Benedict and a paramedic who refuses to let a form decide who she loves, Winston must unpick a binding written before consent was ever part of the question - before it decides his future without asking him either.Darkly funny, foul-mouthed and gloriously spiteful, Weddings, Wards and Other Binding Agreements is an urban fantasy about found family, haunted vows, and who actually gets to sign your life away.
