Book details

Author: Alex W. Wells

A tender slow-burn MM romance about a closeted single dad, a guarded art teacher, and the frightening relief of being truly seen.

Neil Ashworth has built his life around caution. He is a teacher, a father, and a man used to keeping the most vulnerable parts of himself carefully hidden. Rory Cavanaugh is an artist, an art teacher, and the kind of person who notices what other people try not to show. What begins as quiet attention slowly becomes friendship, desire, and a love neither of them can keep at a safe distance. Bare is a tender, open-door MM romance about shame, trust, single parenthood, chosen family, and the courage it takes to let someone see you fully.
