Romance Everlasting

Julian's dream is to become one of the most successful criminal lawyers around, so when a client asks him to venture to The Prison From Hell located on a remote island for an assignment, he jumps at the chance in hopes of a promotion. He's well-aware of the prison's infamous reputation, corrupt laws and peculiar hierarchy, so he already expects to find the baddest of the bad and the foulest of the foul within its concrete walls. Instead, he finds and catches the eye of the most beautiful man he's ever laid eyes on. 

When Schneider Cross, the new King of the Prison, offers him a one-in-a-lifetime chance to represent him as his attorney, Julian accepts, but just before he leaves, a riot breaks out and the prison descends into chaos. Julian is unwittingly caught in its midst and is made to defend himself from a group of rapists, forcing him to kill in self-defense. 

Angered, the inmates conspire to pin a bogus murder charge on Julian and have him thrown into The Prison from Hell with the intention to finish what they started. Dangerously unprepared and still reeling from the injustice, Julian must now seek the protection of the strongest man in all the prison if he is to survive. Only to ensure the King's protection, Julian must agree to become his 'bitch' and 'serve' him in an entirely different way than the first job entailed. 

But how can Julian possibly agree to such a thing when he suspects Schneider of conspiring with the other inmates to get him locked up?

"Sorry, Greg. I'm not leaving. This is my place now too."

These words from a man he barely knew threatened to shatter whatever remaining sanity Greg had after going to great lengths to move on from the death of his fiancé.

As if his dead ex's betrayal wasn't enough, he must now deal with another blow from the grave: an unexpected visitor who was everything Greg wanted to avoid.

After getting away from his cruel father's tyranny, Randall has to learn how to live again,
and accept the person he was meant to be - with a little help of a local bartender...

*****

An empty shell is all what is left of twenty-five-year-old Randall now. After his 
homophobic father found out he was gay, he had to learn to act someone else in order
to survive through the years of abuse and humiliation. Now he has forgotten the 
person he once was. He refuses to remember the person he was supposed to be.

Emotionally detached, and unable to create any kind of relationships, Randall's 
lonely days repeat themselves in the same destructive pattern: go to work, 
work out, watch TV, and drink, with no way out of that dark, miserable corner 
he has built for himself.

When a gay bar opens doors in his neighborhood, the fragile balance he has created 
with himself is in danger of being destroyed when his true self is trying to break free.

And to make things worse, there is a new guy at his gym. A kind guy who has a nice 
voice and loves talking people's ears off. A guy who can see his suffering and is 
willing to do whatever it takes to help him. 

A guy who is making Randall feel once again.
