Silence

As someone born into a gross amount of old money, Will is accustomed to being used. Normally, it doesn't bother him as long as he enjoys the benefits. This one time, it mattered.

After a long night of partying years ago, Will scooped up an ex-basketball player from the streets and redeemed him in every way. He used his money and influence to take Urban from a washed-up has-been turned drug addict to the next big restauranteur. Falling in love with Urban wasn't part of the plan. Neither was learning he meant nothing.

Back when Will saved Urban and turned his life around, Urban wasn't in the right headspace to start a relationship. Too late, he realized, he should've said that. Instead, he wrecked Will and then Will made him pay. Now, they're just two idiots who still love each other with no idea how to find their way back. All they have between them is silence. Someone has to be the first to break before it's too late.

Silence is the third book in Charity Parkerson's Fresh Hell series, where it's something different every day in the battlefield known as life. These are a combination of sports, bi-awakening, and several other sub genres with interconnecting characters. This series is best when read in order.
