Scarred Series by T.T. Kove

I woke to something that had never happened before.
 Josh knows Damian doesn’t want sex, but the evidence was there that he did. So Josh touched him and now Damian is pissed.
 After an enlightening chat with his psychologist, the issue has been put into more perspective. But when Josh goes to apologise, he learns once and for all what their relationship is really about.

“Life’s never going to be the same again.” Josh’s life has been nothing but a struggle. The last three years, however, have been better. He’s in a committed relationship, he’s got several new friends, and his family. Everything’s good—but it’s all shattered when his stepfather’s released from prison. Everyone says Josh’s being paranoid, and maybe he is, but what if his stepfather is out to get him? Damian leads a content life, with his career and his relationship... more“Life’s never going to be the same again.” Josh’s life has been nothing but a struggle. The last three years, however, have been better. He’s in a committed relationship, he’s got several new friends, and his family. Everything’s good—but it’s all shattered when his stepfather’s released from prison. Everyone says Josh’s being paranoid, and maybe he is, but what if his stepfather is out to get him? Damian leads a content life, with his career and his relationship. Medical school keeps him busy and he’s unaware that the one person that can make Josh spiral backwards into destructive behaviour is rearing his ugly head again. That is, until it has near fatal consequences. This book is part of a series but can be read as a stand-alone. However, it is best enjoyed if you’ve first read Scarred. It’s a full-length novel and it ends on no cliffhangers. less

Damian’s always considered himself asexual; he has never had any need nor desire for sex... moreMaybe it wouldn’t be so bad? Wherever Damian turns nowadays, he’s bombarded with sex.
