I was blown away by this romance set in Canada that presented an gay Anglican priest with a moral dilemma when the man who killed the priest's younger brother is let out on probation and put under the priest's control at a halfway house. Sherwood writes beautifully about the priest's conflict as well as the convict's determination to become a better man despite those in the community--including the priest, his parents, his superiors, and his friends--who want to see the man sent back to prison Pertany a aquestes sèriesMark of Cain (1)
When a man is consumed by hatred, is there anything left to love? After a tough day of counseling sessions, Anglican priest Mark Webber is looking forward to a relaxing dinner at a local restaurant. When he sees who's bellied up to the bar, though, he reaches for his cell phone to call the police. It's Lucas Cain, the man who killed Mark's brother three years ago. Apparently he's out of jail and hanging out with his old crowd, which has to be a breach of parole, right? Pulled over upon leaving the bar, Lucas blows a clean breathalyzer and hopes this isn't a harbinger of things to come. He's ready to build a sober, peaceful life. His friends aren't ready to let him move on, though, and he ends up taking refuge in an Anglican half-way house. Thrown together, Mark and Lucas find common ground in the struggle to help a young gay man come to terms with his sexuality-and the fight against homophobic townsfolk. As attraction grows, the past is the last stumbling block between them and a future filled with hope. Warning: Bad boys being good, good boys being bad. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |

However, the beginning of the second part of the book threw me off so much, that I couldn't get past the chapter. Another reminder why I do not attempt reading anything about religion (and people who think themselves to be Christians) and newly released convicts.
