How to Juggle Ballads & Blades by Jess Galaxie

Get ready for something Silly, Sapphic, and Romantic at the Albion Renaissance Faire! Chicot and her best friend Elijah have finally landed their first season at a Renaissance Faire with their show The Jester and Bard, Forever at Odds, but Chicot is quickly discovering there's more to surviving their first Ren Faire than beating the heat. When her new friend Lyza asks Chicot to take her place as 'Wee' in the incredibly popular The Pirates Three: Big, Middle, and Wee show, Chicot jumps on the opportunity without thinking. Chicot wants to help her friend, especially if it means making her and Elijah look better the next time they apply to perform at a big faire. There's just one detail that Chicot neglected to think about: Monty, Lyza's younger sister who is both a major distraction, and doesn't seem to like Chicot very much. Chicot decides to push through for Lyza's sake, even if it means Chicot has to spend countless hours in Monty's arms as they prepare and perform. Worse, as Chicot tries to keep her crush in check, Monty suddenly drops the surly attitude and starts actively flirting with Chicot. Adding a show to her roster shouldn’t be so complicated, but Chicot's caught between not knowing what state she'll be living in after Albion's season finishes and Monty's strong hands. At this rate, Chicot's going to melt before the season is over—and not from the heat of the sun.
