Preparing for Temptation

After heartbreak pushes him into leaving the big city, Bryan finds himself in a secluded, New England town, focused solely on starting over and renovating a rundown old house nestled in a quiet neighborhood. Soon, he finds out, things aren't as quiet as they seem.

His neighbors, two handsome men, the O'Connor twins, tell him the missing pets and the night noises are nothing but coyotes coming in from the hills. But as spring turns to summer and Bryan strikes up a whirlwind romance with one of the twins, Kevin O'Connor, he finds that the animal control issue is much more deeply rooted in the town, and much more sinister than he could ever imagine.

Is it animals? Is it people? What is it keeping Bryan up at night?

Soon, he finds himself confronted with the O'Connor twins and a tale of werewolves and nonsense he finds more than hard to believe but downright insulting. Try as he might, he doesn't know if he can trust Kevin any longer. Worse still, Bryan isn't sure if he can find it in him to make up his mind whether his relationship is worth a prank this rude.

But the truth is stranger than fiction and Bryan soon find himself confronted with something supernatural, even more so than his romantic life with Kevin.
