I have everything I could ever want - a great family, awesome friends, a girlfriend, and I’m headed off to my dream college. But the past is always there, lurking like a shadow in the night…
Branson Joseph Adler
I love men. I love everything about them. Their feel. Their smell. Their taste. It’s no secret to my friends and family that I’m gay. But I do have one secret…
What happens when you give in to the temptation and your world turns upside down?
It’s forbidden.
But it’s ours.
*Barred Desires is the first book in The Deepest Desires interconnected series. It is a forbidden MM stepbrother romance, and it is angsty, emotional, and steamy.
