And that seemed like the most he could expect.Ī sudden revelation and the resulting puzzle, though, throws his world into a wildly different light. He was determined to keep himself alive and sane, even as he began to slowly give up on himself.Īs long as he kept his head down and didn’t fall prey to the fatal mistake of trusting anyone ever again, he’d eventually get out alive. Jack faced dangerous enemies, an indifferent prison administration, and an inmate advocate with his own twisted agenda. And with this one, his best tools for survival, his skills as a con man, had no effect at all. But his biggest threat was the vacant psychopath named Adder, whose cell he found himself sharing. To make matters worse, he had already gotten on the bad side of The Kennel on day one. Betrayed and thrown in prison, he had to figure out fast how to survive, and with no idea who to trust and who not to trust. 'synopsis' may belong to another edition of this title.Jack Carber was in a bad spot. And he winds up changing the lives of several of the men on that Special Forces team as much as they changed his. What Matt doesn’t realize is that the bond of brotherhood runs both ways. He finds that he can, after all, make some very overdue changes in his own life. When called upon, he steps up when every fiber of his being tells him not to, and discovers something deep inside himself that he didn’t realize was even there. And that’s when he finds out that first impressions can be misleading.

Worse, a quirk of his situation forces him to spend time with them that he’d rather not. He’s luckily rescued by a team of US Special Operations Forces, only to immediately find out they’re a bunch of bigoted jerks. Right? But suddenly, Matt finds himself in a desperate life-or-death situation on a trip overseas, and he realizes just how much he misses home, and Brian. If he just shows a little faith and trust, he’ll appreciate what he has with Brian the way he should.

And so what if Brian seems to invite Matt’s suspicions on occasion. So what if his friends tend to question just how good his boyfriend is, and so what if Brian tends to have inexplicable mood swings. And he has a very good-looking boyfriend, Brian, who he’s been happily dating for over a year now. He has his friends and his softball and his volunteer work.
