See me for me...After splitting with his boyfriend, Sam Williams no longer believes in love. And he's definitely not interested in another relationship. A professor of political science, he's content teaching and attending symposiums around the globe. Maybe he's cut himself off from the world, but it's the safest thing for him. No more falling for smooth-talking pretty boys. No more heartbreak. Jason Moore has a secret that almost nobody knows. And it's the reason why, most days, he drinks until passing out. To the few people who know him, his self-destruction is spectacular. Still, he's not sure if he can pull himself out of the downward spiral... or if he wants to. But a chance meeting between Sam and Jason upends their carefully curated lives, challenging every notion they have of themselves. As the dust settles, they're tested in ways they never imagined. And what's on offer - a happy life or another season of pain - depends on whether they can outrun the demons from their past.Beyond the Veil is a story of obsession, love, and acceptance, reminding us that not everything is what it seems - and that we have the power to change our destiny. Bonus: Also included is an excerpt from Broken Man Broke, a thought-provoking coming-of-age story about first love, friendships and heartbreaking loss.
