Defined By Deceit

He tried to drown his demons, only to find they could swim. Life isn't always fair. Llewellyn Gardner knows that first hand. He was on the fast track-college dreams, a boyfriend-until one night of extreme passion changed everything. Eight years later and out of prison, he still lives with the aftershocks of that night.

For Shane Smith, Jr., owner of Smith Construction, there's something about the gorgeous, misunderstood man with the overly expressive eyes and dark past. Shane sees the good in Llewellyn- it's why he hired him-and he isn't going to let the man cut himself off from the world. Llewellyn isn't sure what to think about Shane. After years of protecting himself from being tricked twice, he's worried. What will happen if Shane doesn't believe the truth about his past?
