Summary

He was taught desire is a sin. So why does it feel like the truth? Caleb Ward has spent his entire life following rules. Control. Discipline. Faith. Then he meets Julian. And everything starts to break. Not all at once. Slowly. Carefully. Like something is pulling him apart piece by piece. Because Julian doesn't force anything. He just waits. And Caleb starts to want what he's been running from his entire life. ⚠️ This story deals with heavy themes. Read carefully. This is only part of the story. It gets darker from here. 👉 Read the full book on Amazon: https://a.co/d/06rpwvkC
