An imprisoned heart finds escape in forbidden love.
No pride. No privacy. No hope.
Academic John Gilliam thought being caught embracing another
man was the worst that could happen. Until he agrees to
“treatment” at an asylum, where a vicious attack leaves him
shaken and afraid.
But having all means of writing or reading taken from him…
That is a serious threat to his sanity. Then a moment of
kindness from an asylum attendant begins to restore his dignity.
Sam Tully feels sorry for the patient everyone calls “the
professor”, but with a back injury that cost him his job on
the docks—and without the education that would have bettered
his position—he tries to keep his head down, and a tight lid
on his attraction to men.
As John prays for freedom, he grows closer to the gentle,
innately intelligent Tully. In spite of themselves,
forbidden attraction leads to touches, kisses, and more. But
there’s something other than curative treatments going on at
the asylum. When John and Tully uncover a heinous
conspiracy, their very lives are in danger.
Warning: Contains heinous crimes and frightening
treatments—oh, and some sweet and loving sexy times between
two healthy, not-crazy men.
