Devoted husband, rising businessman…sex addict. With his life imploding
around him, Michael Sawyer is left with but one option: run.
In recovery from his sexual addiction, step five was the hardest for Michael
Sawyer: admitting to another the exact nature of his wrongs. But his dark
compulsions were ruining his life, and rather than lose everything, he
confessed to his wife, Rachel.
Sordid tales of anonymous sex, degrading sex, and huge chunks of his time
mired in fantasy thought. Rachel’s response was surprisingly tempered. No
tearful tantrums. No veiled threats. Not one mention of telling Michael’s
employer, millionaire Malcolm Ferrer—who also happened to be her
father—about her husband’s reckless and humiliating treatment.
Could there possibly be a luckier man alive? Michael doubted it very
seriously. So why is he now running from the life he created with Rachel?
Because suddenly everything is falling apart and finding an exit is going to
be tough.

In his powerful debut novel, Phillip Thomas Duck reaches into the hearts of
two brothers struggling to understand the boys they once were and become the
men they were meant to be.
As brothers, Colin and Courtney Sheffield know their lives will always be
connected, but their mistakes, and those of their absent father before them,
have tangled them in a web of bitterness and regret neither of them can
shake. More than siblings, less than friends, neither of them is willing to
place their blood bond over the painful secrets that threaten to shatter
their futures.
A writer constantly struggling to live up to the hype surrounding his first
book, Colin is haunted by an event in his past that still darkens his dreams
and casts a shadow over his marriage to Liza, a former model with ghosts of
her own to vanquish. Even the birth of their beautiful daughter, Lyric,
can’t hold them together when Colin begins to measure every word he writes
against that of another bestselling author who has suddenly taken an
interest in him—and his brother.
Basketball is Courtney’s lifeblood. With only one year of college left, he’s
willing to leave school when rumors of a valuable NBA contract promise to
make him everything his brother is not—a true success, and a winner his
mother will finally be proud of. But with all he’s ever dreamed of within
reach, he begins to wonder if he wants something else more—a true
relationship with Chante, the only woman he’s ever loved, and the mother of
a child who may or may not be his.
Examining the emotional complexities of family and the nature of fatherhood,
Phillip Thomas Duck has written a book that shines a light into the souls of
two young men with everything to lose in their battle with each other—and
true brotherhood to gain.
