Surrogate Son

By MR Robert Allan Macilwain

In a time that demanded silence, one man learned to speak through love.

Montreal, 1967. Bobby is twenty-three and lost in a world that doesn't allow men like him to speak their truth. Taken in at thirteen by Gerry, a pool hall regular who became his protector, Bobby has spent years in silence - loyal, hidden, and quietly in love with the man who raised him.

Then Stephano Trevietti walks into the pool hall.

Older, magnetic, and married, Stephano hires Bobby to chauffeur his pregnant wife. Bobby knows it's dangerous - Stephano is everything he's been taught to fear and desire. But when their secret relationship begins, Bobby steps into a world of hidden tenderness, whispered weekends, and forbidden hope.

After Stephano's sudden death, Bobby is forced to grieve in silence. But a series of confessions - from a powerful mob boss, from Gerry, and from a new love named Richard - will force Bobby to choose between the past that shaped him and the future that might finally belong to him.

Surrogate Son is a tender, unforgettable novel of queer love, loyalty, and self-discovery in a time of silence.
