Proudly written by a human author.

In the shimmering heat of a tropical island, where nights blur into desire and danger, a young man searches for connection in a world shadowed by decadence, superstition, and violence. Approximately Moonlight is a fever dream, a poem to ruin and an elegy for the lost—but it is also a testament that sometimes, even here, love survives. Justin wanders through nights of strangers, chasing what flickers just beyond his reach—the mystery in another man’s touch, the hope that one might write his name on their heart.

Lines of cocaine are snorted from bar tops, bodies are exchanged for warmth and money, love is unobtainable, and beauty is murdered. Yet under the moonlight, real and pretend, he keeps searching. For the fearless man-boy who might stay—for the man whose body feels like home.

Lush, edgy, and unafraid of the darkness, Approximately Moonlight is a story of longing and ruin for the ones whose dreams drown in turquoise pools, the ones who lie about love, the ones who pretend to love for a night then disappear before morning. As the island’s secrets emerge—the haunting murder, the fragile connections, Justin must confront the darkness within and around him. Will he find a love that defies the decay? Or will the tropical nights swallow him whole?
