    About this ebook

    Casey is different, and not just the usual different. Stolen at age 5 from the lab that created him, he's been content to live with his 'uncle' in solitude for years, safe & protected, with the vast ocean surrounding him.

    So when a stranger shows up on their island at the cottage next door, it shatters their carefully constructed peace. Can Casey manage to keep his secret or will this stranger destroy everything he's managed to keep under the currents?

    Author

    Taylor Ryan

    Taylor Ryan's works are usually rather angst-ridden. As anyone who has read All In or Tears of the Neko can tell, stories delve into the emotional side of the characters and relationships are built over time. The genre of the story isn't as important to the story as the development of the characters; therefore, stories will fall into just about any genre-- modern, historical, fantasy, sci-fi, shifter, slave-fic, etc.
