The God He Chooses: The Hollow Faith

By Rose Marlowe

Dave Perez escaped the religious order that controlled his life, but freedom is harder than he imagined. His family still has money and power, the Order still has people willing to protect its secrets, and the man he loves comes from a world of violence of his own.

Lukas Romano saved Dave, but saving him does not erase the life Lukas has lived. Now he must face his father, his criminal past, the law, and the possibility that protecting Dave could become another form of control.

As evidence, witnesses, and buried secrets come to light, Dave must decide what he truly believes. Not what his family taught him. Not what the Order demanded. His own answer.

And Lukas must learn that loving someone does not mean owning them, protecting them does not mean choosing for them, and redemption cannot be bought with blood.

In the end, they will have to choose what matters more: fear or freedom, control or love, and the faith they inherited or the life they choose for themselves.
