Temporary

“Don’t worry, it’s just temporary.”

Two years later, Felix Everett is finding those words hard to believe. In the time since he and his father were evicted, Felix has been living a nomadic lifestyle, bouncing from one shelter to the next in hopes for a solid meal and warm bed. He’s a Rubix Cube, struggling to balance out a passionate temper, one that often causes him problems wherever he falls, and a quiet disposition. Since he was seventeen years old, Felix has been paying the price for his father’s failed employment and is trying to blend into a scene where he doesn’t belong: the streets of New York.

When Felix stumbles into the soup kitchen she works at, Lydia Ingram is consumed with a desire to poke at the mysterious young man’s past. Without a second thought, she takes a skeptical Felix under her wing and provides him a meal and a couch for what she only intends to be one night. However, as she begins learning more about the handsome, broken boy, she finds it difficult to cut him loose.

Has Felix finally found the safe haven he’s been searching for, or will he find himself back behind a dark alleyway at night?
