Welcoming the Recluse

By Nora Phoenix

I'm a man on a mission to stay as far away from everyone else as possible. I have too much damage as a veteran, and this is the only way to keep those I love safe-especially Boden, my teenage son, whom I haven't seen in years.

I find a quiet spot on top of a mountain where no one bothers me. Until Arek shows up, the local doctor and a single dad to teenage twins. I help him with an emergency, but something happens. There's a spark, a connection between us I've never felt before.

We become friends, and slowly but surely, he's the reason I come down the mountain. Even though I've never been attracted to a man, I'm very much into Arek, and our friendship grows into more.

But the past never stays in the past, and if I want a future with Arek, I'll have to deal with the mistakes I've made. Can I repair what I broke, or is it too late to find healing?

Welcoming the Recluse is a super slow burn, friends-to-lovers MM romance set in a small town, featuring two older single dads, a bi awakening, and all the hurt/comfort. This is book 7 in the Forestville Silver Foxes series but can be read as a standalone. Please mind the content warnings in the front of the book.
