About the Story

Two men who meet by chance and gradually become more to each other than either had intended. A story of intimacy and vulnerability, and of the quiet changes that begin when another person is allowed to come close. At its heart is the courage to let someone in, fully, after a life spent guarding the door.
Jack & Adrian is written for adult readers (18+) and contains mature and sexual content.
