Forget Me Knot
To make amends for his soulmate's downfall, Toa is cursed to an immortal life spent unknotting strangers' Red String of Fate, helping them connect with their own soulmates while never finding a soul bond of his own. When Toa encounters a devastating man who also lacks a Red String partner, everything he knows about Fate is called into question. How can a man so beautiful also be cursed to wander the Earth alone, never knowing true love or connection? And is it possible that two people denied love by Fate could forge a new love in each other?
In this cozy romantasy novel, award-winning author, Emery Lee, reimagines the Japanese Red String of Fate myth in a blend of godly magic, hate to love, and witty banter

I was so excited about this one but ended up being super disappointed 😭 the prose is quite bad to the point it was hard to follow the action at times, and the historical detail is really lacking. (Emperor seems to actually be in charge of things??? People just going in and out of the palace??? Talking to the emperor's wives and concubines???) Heian Japan is such a good possibility for a fantasy or romance novel but the thing with the setting is that the sexual politics are so much more strange than one might assume, so ignoring the strictures like this is just a waste.
