Infinite Jes follows Gregory’s widowed father Michaelis into retirement, a difficult transition he isn’t making easier by moving out of the palace and avoiding appointments to dictate his royal memoirs. When nonbinary broadcast journalist Jes Deimos and Jes’s teenage son Noah happen into his life, he isn’t expecting anything more from them than a little help making a podcast. 

Still, Jes — surprising, different, challenging Jes — is starting to inspire emotions he didn’t think he was capable of anymore. Now if only Noah would stay out of life-threatening trouble for more than a month at a time, Michaelis might be able to figure out exactly what those feelings are. (Roughly 50K words.)
