    Summary

    Vincent’s problem was always the same: he wants.

    He wants, he wants, he wants. And no amount of getting or receiving will ever change that fact, will ever close the cavern inside of him that always wants more. Getting is secondary, underwhelming in comparison to the thrill of wanting. Of chasing. When he found something he wanted, he pursued it single-mindedly. He made a plan, he pulled his strings, he put every piece of the puzzle into place. That was when he was on top of the world. Receiving his prize was little more than a participation trophy, and by the time he got it he had usually already found another want. Want, want, want.

    Sometimes, at night, he wondered if his luck would run out, and when. What happened when he met someone he couldn’t charm or bully into giving him what he wanted? Who was immune to his silver tongue, his clever quips, his flashy smile or a flirtatious bat of his mismatched eyes? What happened when he took a risk that didn’t pay off?

    When Vincent takes a spring break trip to New Orleans to celebrate his upcoming college graduation, he may just find the answer to that question where he least expects it.

    And it will alter the course of his life forever.

    Summary

    New Orleans, 1933.
    Vincent Whittman’s assignment (punishment) seems simple enough: recruit Mr. Alastor Hartfelt, the city’s famed radio star.
    But his trip derails the moment he meets the man dressed in a smile too sharp, with secrets too deep, and a presence that hums with something far beyond him.
    One broken ritual binds them for decades, pulling them back to each other again and again, to the one soul neither can quite break away from.

    Summary

    A man’s going to die tonight.

    Vincent Whittman is someone who inspires words like 'nice' and 'a little odd'. The kind of person whose darkest sin can only be bad tipping or disregard of social cues. Right?

    Working at a New York television station, he's yet another man with ambition larger than himself.
    Tonight, he's going for the throat, ready to seize his fate. Until a single misstep, one slip of a mask, in front of a stranger upends his entire plan and Vincent, the self-proclaimed master puppeteer, finds himself a mere marionette.

    The radio host from New Orleans, Alastor Hartfelt, cannot be conquered in ways Vincent employs. Faster than predator rips prey, Alastor uncovers truths about him Vincent hadn’t even known existed. Vincent's in trouble. Yet, he cannot stay away.


    or: Alastor visits NYC for unspecified business, and Vincent, an aspiring TV star and killer, is caught between desire for success and finding his own self. Desperate, he bends his career as control slowly slips through his fingers. Murder, obsession and unconventional romance ensue.
