Reporting for Duty (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781541360921)

Elijah Epstein has recently finished his degree in journalism and is currently working at the local newspaper. He wishes he could say it was a job he got on merit, but in reality, his mother, the district attorney, called in a favor. Now he's been assigned the story that could make or break his career. Robert Kilkenny doesn't want anything complicated. He just wants to do the police work that he can, make life a little better for people in the small community that he has recently moved to and then he wants to go home to his art. After being a rising star in narcotics for years, his new coworkers eye him suspiciously. He's the one that is stuck showing Elijah Epstein around. He's the reporter that's supposed to make the community outreach program with the police work. They both expect a quiet couple of months, where neither one of them will get much at all from the other. Elijah is supposed to be looking for a story that will bring the corruption of the police force into light, but instead, he's spending all his time with Robert Kilkenny and having fun, which was the last thing he expected. The two men start to become friends when Kilkenny finds a neglected child in a trap house at the upscale neighborhood he helps to protect. Elijah is there and sees everything. The experience deeply affects Robert, who finds it incredibly triggering. It also affects Elijah, who has never seen anything like that before. That terrible event may be the catalyst that the two men need to take the step that they're both yearning to take - toward each. But Robert is straight, and they both have a lot of baggage. Will they be strong enough to navigate the complicated world of criminals, trauma and grief? Please Note: This book contains Adult Language & Steamy Adult Activities, it is intended for 18+ Adults Only. Novella, approx. 50,000 words in length. HEA (happy ever after ending). Does not end with a "cliffhanger".
