Being forced to move so many states away from all that he once knew, Nessa was nervous to tackle his new life. Fortunately, it didn't take long for Nessa to meet a plethora of unique individuals who welcomed him into their lives: The optimist, the kinky, the haunted, the bitchy, the hippie, and the intellect. They all did their best to show him what life was like in the city, and to teach him how to live each day as though it was his last. Nessa tried his best to do as they said, but sometimes he couldn't help but glance over his shoulder. Those eyes that so many people deemed beautiful, they were always searching for a specific shadow in the dark. Until someone tapped his arm, and he was forced to ignore the nagging feeling at the back of his mind. •O•O• LGBTQ+ book Started: 2 . 6 . 21 Finished: 9 . 26 . 22 TW: addiction, sexual assault, sex, drugs, strong language, mild violence.

Inanis Messor is The Bone Cutter. He's America's most fierce and cursed celebrity. He's America's modern prophet. He's America's very own murderous darling. Inanis's job is to broadcast a live death on public television once a month, as a sacrifice to the public. Every month on the 15th, Inanis steps on a large, vibrant stage, in front of dozens of cameras, and executes a living political individual as repentance for the sins of America's government. It keeps the public satisfied. It keeps the government from having to own up to their mistakes. Mirea Dhalmi is the daughter of a famous state governor; a man who involves himself in every political discussion the media has to offer. But when he's chosen to be Inanis's next victim, Mirea desperately pleads with The Bone Cutter to spare his life. Inanis agrees, but at a price. Mirea must now become his bride, his public display. She becomes The Bone Harvester, the woman who stands beside The Bone Cutter on the bloody stage that is broadcasted throughout public television. The unfortunate woman who stands beside the celebrity who kills in front of the nation.

Silver-tongued lawyer Linus Twist has expensive tastes. The sharpest suits, the purest drugs, and the dirtiest sex. Linus wants it all in excess, especially the sex, and especially with the wrong types of men. So when he impetuously follows a foxy redhead into the gym shower and gets kissed like it means something, Linus knows he's headed for certain disaster. Finnigan Wilde is a dreamer, a wanna-be novelist, in search of himself. He woos Linus with lilacs, speaks to him in filthy poetry, and touches him like he doesn't care who's watching. It's enough to make Linus want to set aside his sinister tendencies, his ambition, and one vital fact - that, as far as the world is concerned, Finn is straight.
