Won't Be Fooled Again (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781839438257)

It takes more than a shared past to make a future together.

When Kwesi--Kez--Zakari, cardiology consultant secretary at St. Cross Children's Hospital, hears that his aunt's building has caught fire, his settled life is turned upside down. Not only is his aunt now homeless, but he's also thrust back in contact with someone from his past--someone he's been trying to forget for five years...and failed miserably.

Callum Wright never seems to get things right. He needs to do one more wrong thing before he can get his life back in order. Instead, he undergoes a literal trial by fire, and choosing the path of good returns his old friend to his life. Kez's council-estate-to-professional-world transformation reminds Callum of how he's never been able to get anything right...least of all his feelings for the man.

Kez hasn't got over the reckless act of betrayal that caused their separation five years ago. Atoning for the guilt he still harbours at having turned his back on his friend in the past, he helps Callum get his future in some sort of order--a difficult feat when all those quashed feelings resurface for a man who can't, and shouldn't, ever be trusted.

All Kez can do is repeat that this time, he really, seriously, most definitely, won't be fooled again.
