The books that have been
collecting dust for so long they have become stained from it
I know I haven’t had this
one long, but I’m jonesing for it something chronic and, well, it’s been on someone’s bookshelf a long arsed time,
so… that works, right?
After witnessing a mob hit, surgeon Jack Francisco is put into
protective custody to keep him safe until he can testify. A hitman known only
as D is blackmailed into killing Jack, but when he tracks him down, his weary
conscience won't allow him to murder an innocent man. Finding in each other an
unlikely ally, Jack and Dare soon on the run from shadowy enemies. Forced to
work together to survive, the two men forge a bond that ripens into unexpected
passion. Jack sees the wounded soul beneath D's cold, detached exterior, and D
finds in Jack the person who can help him reclaim the man he once was. As the
day of Jack's testimony approaches, he and D find themselves not only fighting
for their lives... but also fighting for their future. A future together

Lysol, unwashed feet, and that sour tang of grime and deperation that tried
to dress up and look nice with laundered sheets and those stiff bedspreads
that felt like sandpaper on your ass, bargain basement art on the walls and
cheap paper-wrapped chits that weren’t so much soap as a suggestion of what
soap might be like.
