Snapped Genre :Gay RomancePublisher The GA Hauser Collection, LLCBook heat level (based on movie ratings): RAbout the Book
Thirty-nine year old, Bryce Hayes
thought when he left the military and joined the Seattle Police Department, there
would be nothing he couldn’t handle. He’d seen it all; the worst of what mankind
could do to each other.But the Seven Deadly Sins had yet
to rear their ugly head. Lust, Greed, Envy, Sloth, Pride, Wrath, Gluttony. And Bryce
was about to encounter them all embodied in one man.What Bryce witnessed on his first
phase as a student with Field Training Officer Kohl Abbott, he found inconceivable
corruption. As a thirty-nine year old ‘rookie’ paired with the senior officer from
hell, Bryce had no idea when he was told to ‘stay put’ in the patrol car, that his
training instructor Abbott was breaking fingers and kneecaps for protection money
from the small local businesses.While in the Special Forces, Bryce
was taught to shut up, to not reveal information. But this time? When the net came
down on the corruption he was caught in the snare. Bryce was tossed out of the department
with the garbage, but was not prosecuted. He never knew why not.Twenty-eight year old Joel Vandergrift
lived up on Capitol Hill in Seattle,
worked as a photographer and taught literature classes at night. But, his real love
was writing. Having his first few novels hit the bestseller lists, Joel was gaining
recognition and finally thought earning a living as a writer was a possibility…
until his apartment is broken into, and his computer with all his work on it, is
stolen.A day later, Joel sees his latest
bestseller being sold, but under someone else’s name.The irony of just having met a bartender
named Bryce Hayes, whose behavior was suspicious to Joel, made Joel believe Bryce
had a hand in the treachery.But Bryce knew the reality.Kohl Abbott was writing under an assumed
name, his first best seller documenting his ‘life of crime’. Even though Abbott
had served time in the county lockup for his deeds, he had been released early.
Abbott knew dirt on many men, including cops and councilmen…including Bryce.What at first had been an ultimatum
for Bryce from Abbott to find something nasty to discredit Joel as a top writer,
had changed. Secrets, lies, and disastrous decisions that were impossible to take
back, push Joel and Bryce together- as lovers, then as reluctant enemies. And it
isn’t until one man finally has had enough that fate takes over.SNAPPED!Lust, Greed, Envy, Sloth, Pride, Wrath,
Gluttony- The ‘Infamous 7’ change one man from a cynic into a killer. And Bryce
sees first hand, how war is not only fought on the battlefield, it is also drawn
from the mighty pen.Buy This Book
