Hard Limits, Soft Hands

Aaron Blake is one of Manhattan's elite criminal defense attorneys. He wears four-thousand-dollar suits, destroys witnesses on the stand, and goes home to an empty, expensive apartment where his hands won't stop shaking. Desperate to feel something—anything—other than the crushing weight of his own moral compromise, he seeks out a professional who can deliver the punishment he believes he deserves.

Luca Santos does not do punishment. As a highly sought-after escort specializing in intense, carefully orchestrated sensation play, Luca creates spaces where high-powered men can safely fall apart. He reads bodies, recognizes trauma, and never lets a client breach his strict professional boundaries.

Until Aaron.

What starts as a negotiated transaction in a hotel room quickly dissolves into a profound, terrifying intimacy. When Aaron takes on a pro bono civil rights case that forces him to fight for true justice, the carefully constructed walls between client and provider shatter completely. Stripped of their armor, Aaron and Luca must navigate the dangerous transition from a paid arrangement to a real-world relationship.

But stepping out of the dark and into the daylight requires a vulnerability neither man is sure he can survive.

Hard Limits, Soft Hands is a high-heat, deeply emotional MM romance featuring intense hurt/comfort themes, authentic sensation play, and two men finding salvation in each other's hands.
