Nathaniel Carrington has always believed he's broken. Raised in a world where faith is law and love is sin, he convinces himself that the way he feels-toward guys-is wrong. Haunted by his father's cruelty and the weight of his own guilt, Nathaniel lives in a constant battle with himself... until Lucian enters his life.
Charismatic, patient, and scarred in ways Nathaniel can barely imagine, Lucian becomes a light in his darkness-a savior who challenges everything Nathaniel thought he knew about love, pain, and forgiveness. But healing isn't easy, and both boys carry ghosts from their pasts. Can they find each other without losing themselves?
A raw, angsty tale of love, trauma, and the fragile path to self-acceptance.
