Summary
Michael Robinavitch is a gifted ER doctor with a horrifying secret: when violent, abusive men come through his doors, they do not always leave alive.
Dennis Whitaker, brand new to homicide and desperate to prove himself, starts digging into a string of disappearances that all seem to lead back to Allegheny General. What begins as suspicion turns into obsession when Dennis realizes there is something deeply wrong with Dr. Robinavitch — and worse, some part of him understands it.
As the investigation closes in, Dennis finds himself trapped between duty and desire, revulsion and intimacy, while Michael’s carefully controlled double life begins to unravel. In the daylight, he is steady hands and tired eyes. In the dark, he is something starving.Bookmarked by MatchaPuddingLK

Summary
When Dennis Whitaker leaves Nebraska for the first time, in the summer of 1994, it isn’t by choice. Sicily is too warm, too foreign, too full of things he doesn’t understand, and too far from the life that was already decided for him.
Between restless nights, suffocating expectations, and a family that only seems to notice him when he’s useful, Dennis begins to drift. The future waiting for him back home feels less and less certain—and wanting something else is one thing. Allowing it is another.
Then there’s the man next door. Older. Quiet. Observant. Someone who sees more than he says, and more than Dennis is used to being seen at all. What begins as a simple encounter, a ball over a wall, turns into something slower. Something deliberate. Something that lingers.
Because Michael Robinavitch doesn’t exist outside Dennis’ world—he unsettles it. Questions it. Opens it. And for the first time, Dennis finds himself standing at the edge of something he doesn’t understand, and isn’t sure he’s allowed to want.
Because some distances can’t be measured in miles. And some crossings don’t let you go back.

Summary
Dennis Whitaker can work the ER on caffeine, adrenaline, and pure spite. He can charm patients, antagonise coworkers, argue with anyone in authority, and keep moving long past the point any sane person would collapse.
Dr. Michael Robinavitch sees straight through him. Chief attending, unflappable to nonsense, and far too perceptive for Dennis’s comfort, Robby becomes the one person who refuses to be distracted by Whitaker’s reckless competence and practiced chaos. What begins as curiosity sharpens into something far more dangerous: trust.

Summary
“Dennis thinks, as much as he has the capability to think, that he could happily stay here for the rest of his existence, lips wrapped around Robby’s thumb, feeling the comfortable weight of it in his mouth. ”
Or: Dennis and Robby have sex so good it breaks Dennis's brain for a little bit. Not that they let that stop them from continuing to have a good time.
