Sins of the Stone by Morella Moon

Ramuz
Ramuz has always lived in the shadows, finding solace in observing humans from afar. An outcast among his own kind and feared by the very beings he admires, Ramuz leads a lonely existence—until his eyes fall on Ursulette, mocked and harassed by the people in her village. As he watches over her, drawn to her perseverance and quiet strength, he feels a connection he never thought possible. When creatures invade the village with the intent to destroy it, Ramuz rescues Ursulette, whisking her away from the burning ruins to his hidden sanctuary—a risk that may cost him his life.

Ursulette
Ursulette has always felt like an outsider, yet despite yearning for a connection she’s learned to survive in isolation. When a raid of demons devastates her village, she awakens in the arms of a mysterious gargoyle—the very creature she should fear. Yet there’s something different about Ramuz. Unlike the creatures who destroyed her home, he shows her kindness, intelligence, and a deep, abiding affection. Ursulette faces the realization that her heart is falling for a creature she has been taught to fear.

As they return to her ruined village, they must confront the harsh reality that their love is forbidden—a love that could lead to their execution. Amidst the trauma of their pasts and the danger of their present, can they defy a world determined to keep them apart, or will their love cost them their lives?
