Immortality's Gift - Michael Mandrake - Immortals

Today, I’m talking about book series and why they’re a double edged sword. Why you say? Well, for the reader they’re great! You create a world with multiple characters, focusing on them, what they do, and in romance, how they interact with one another to fall in love. I’ve heard it all.

Summary: Sometimes…things aren’t always what they seem. For Trevor, being away from home for the first time was difficult enough. Add being gay and completely inexperienced and the difficulty jumps a notch. Top it off with being disowned by your family and being uncomfortable in new situations, and life seemed impossible. Then he saw the man of his dreams across a crowded restaurant, then he noticed the guy was with another man. Oh well…he’s keep looking. Then the attack happened. For Philip, recovering from a breakup was hard, and a good reason to swear off relationships. Counseling other LGBTQ individuals through their struggles was rewarding, but practicing what you preached was a challenge. His eyes caught the most handsome man he’d ever seen across a crowded restaurant, but the guy disappeared. Then he remembered his vow to remain unattached. Never did he expect a threat from years ago surfacing to plague him.
