About this listen
Mark knows he has to make an impossible choice ...
Mark isn't sure he believes in love, especially when he's torn between two very different men: his reliable boyfriend, Craig, and his illicit lover and priest, Richard.
He knows what he should do, but he can't bring himself to give Richard up. The sex with Richard is unlike anything he's ever known with Craig, and he hungers for it as much as — if not more than — the truer intimacy he finds in his boyfriend's arms.
When Craig discovers his betrayal, Mark is forced to look at his life more closely, but the path to self-knowledge is never an easy one. Richard seeks the way back to God, but Mark finds no solace there.
Can he ever discover the truth of his own soul, or is he too afraid of what he will — or won't — find inside his heart?
Perfect for lovers of dark romance.
©2015 Anne Brooke (P)2026 Anne BrookeCritic reviews
"Anne Brooke has written a somber and beautiful story of a man who had everything and lost it all because he coveted two very different men. It is dark and solemn and resonates with a sense of conflict and despair that wove the ideal atmosphere. It was moving and played beautifully against the knowledge that sometimes free will and human nature simply don't leave room for happy endings." (The Novel Approach)
"Anne Brooke is one of my favourites. I love the picture she always paints in her books — of a town, the people, the streets, the body language of the characters. Body language is an integral part of communication and not every writer can do this well, if at all. I like the fact that her writing is quirky, realistic and (I believe) comes from someone with keen observational skills. A short, realistic, terrific read." (On Top Down Under Book Reviews)
