Onley James × Léa Charbonnier Collaboration

ARTIST EDITIONS

The Necessary Evils Artist Collaboration marks an exclusive partnership between bestselling author Onley James and acclaimed French illustrator Léa Charbonnier, known for her vibrant, emotional depictions of LGBTQIA+ stories.

Each volume features:

  • Original cover artwork by Léa Charbonnier
  • Printed edges and full-color interior
  • Comes digitally signed by Onley James
  • Choice of paperback or hardcover

A celebration of dark romance and queer storytelling, designed by two creators who redefine what love looks like.

This collaboration isn’t just about beautiful books, it’s about giving back.

In honor of Léa Charbonnier’s ongoing advocacy for LGBTQIA+ rights, a portion of proceeds from the Necessary Evils Artist Collaboration Collection will be donated to support international queer organizations that champion visibility, safety, and creative freedom for LGBTQIA+ individuals worldwide.

Because love—in all its forms—deserves to be seen.

ABOUT ONLEY

ONLEY JAMES lives in North Carolina with her daughter, her daughter-in-law, son-in-law, and a menagerie of animals, both good and evil. James splits her time between writing m/m romance and mainlining dangerous levels of caffeine and attempting to maintain her ever-slipping sanity.

When not at her desk, you can find her whining about how much writing she has to do while avoiding said writing by binge-watching unhealthy amounts of television and doom scrolling on social media.

She loves true crime documentaries, anti-heroes, and writing kinky, snarky books about morally gray men who fall in love with other men.
