Finding a Way — Meyari McFarland

Atif's life seemed as though it was set in stone until the day his father's ship ran around. Then everything changed for the worse. Starvation seemed inevitable until Atif decided that he wouldn't let it continue. He volunteered to be an apprentice to the nobility like his relatives at Breding Manor and was sent to work at Klallam Manor with Lord Samurakami Haru. But life at Klallam Manor was nearly as bad as it had been at home. All Atif can hope is that by working with Lord Haru he can find a way to make everything better for himself, his family and the new home he'd found himself in. Finding a Way is a sweet romance set in the Manor Verse where sometimes opportunities aren't found. They're seized and then pushed to give everything possible.
