📚 All About the Book

The Strange Grey Everything
By Rebecca Crunden
Published by Independently Published on February 2-25
Genres: Werewolf Fiction, Fantasy, Urban Fantasy
Formats: eBook, Paperback
Pages: 254

Damien Giles hasn’t seen his husband in twelve years. Not since Carlisle left him on their honeymoon. All Damien got was his father-in-law telling him that Carlisle wasn’t coming back. (Twice.) And yet divorce papers never arrived.

Now Carlisle’s back in town for his brother’s wedding and keeps crossing Damien’s path. More baffling to Damien is how little Carlisle’s changed – and how much he still seems to care for Damien. Which, after twelve years of silence, is more than a little ridiculous.

As tensions rise and secrets resurface, Damien begins re-examining their relationship for all the things he missed and soon learns that there is far more to his husband and their history than he knows. But the more he learns about the reasons behind his husband’s disappearance, the more Damien realises that leaving him the first time might just have been the kindest thing Carlisle could have done for him.
