Description
Police officer Kain Walker has gone to great lengths to prevent his coworkers, family, and friends from finding out he's gay. But when Kain meets Mel Fredericks, he realises at once that his whole world is about to change.
For the first time, Kain wants more than a one-night stand, but a relationship carries risks, discovery not least among them. Battling with others' expectations and biases—and his own—Kain struggles to balance his desire for secrecy with his feelings for Mel at a time when being out could cost him dearly.
Set in New York in the 1990s, this heartbreaking love story makes its English debut in a beautiful, oversized omnibus edition in New York, New York, Vol. 1.
