Guess what? It's interview time! I had the pleasure of interviewing R.K. Ashwick, a Cozy Fantasy Romance author. Join us as we discuss the BTS of A Rival Most Vial!  R.K.  transports the reader into a magical world filled with DND NPC energy, potion mishaps, big found family and more! There is much to uncover and plenty of fun waiting for you!

Synopsis:
Two potion shops, one heated rivalry…until hate bubbles over into something else.

Any adventurer worth their sword knows about Ambrose Beake. The proud, quiet half-elf sells the best, and only, potions in the city—until a handsome new shopkeeper named Eli opens another potion shop across the street, throwing Ambrose’s peace and ledgers far off balance.

Within weeks, they’re locked in a war of price tags and products—Ambrose’s expertise against Eli’s effortless charm. Toil leads to trouble, the safety gloves come off, and right as their rivalry reaches a boiling point…

The mayor commissions them to brew a potion together.

The task is as complex as it is lucrative, pushing both men to the limits of their abilities and patience. Yet as the fires burn and cauldrons bubble…they find a different sort of chemistry brewing.
