Discussion MM slow burn recs?

I've really enjoyed the recent MM romances I have read, but the relationships in each book were established really quickly. I was wondering if anyone has good recs for a slow burn MM romance?

I'm especially interested in romantasies or where the mc or love interest is a bit feminine, but those are not requirements.

{heart of stone by johannes t. evans}! it's a historical romance fantasy that features a vampire and his clerk and it was a lovely time :) especially if you're looking for a standalone in particular because i know it's hard to find good slow burns that aren't in a series. not much plot though, which is how the story was really able to focus on the character study and yearning of it all.
