A Gray Zone Novel
a decent job, a nice apartment, and Joey Martin, his perfect geek boyfriend. But all that is about to change.
First Joey gets sick. He's feverish for days, starving for food. Finally a terrified Taylor calls EMS only to be told there's nothing they can do. Joey's body is changing, and he's not going to be Human anymore. He's a Lesser-Bred.
Suddenly Taylor, who has always taken care of Joey, can't even begin to fulfill his needs. Joey needs to eat-to feed. And that means he needs a sexual connection with Gabriel, a Lesser-Bred being kept by a Kin named Pavel. Stripped of his job, his cushy apartment, and his connection to the sweet, dorky Joey he fell in love with, Taylor struggles to maintain a sense of identity-and humanity-in Atlanta's Gray Zone, where Human dreams become nightmares. Suddenly it's Taylor, not Joey, who needs to be protected. Because the people around him are dying, and if Taylor doesn't open his eyes, he might be next.
It's an unfortunate truth: love doesn't always conquer all. Regardless of its strength, sometimes fate intervenes, tragedy strikes, or forces conspire against it. These stories of romance do not offer a traditional happy ending, but the strong and enduring love will still touch your heart and maybe move you to tears.
