Summary
Dennis really liked his new life, unless it was past 3 in the morning. When his daughter only let them sleep for an hour and now the phone couldn’t stop ringing. In these circumstances he hated his life.

Summary
Dennis Whitaker grew up learning that love could hurt—and that silence was the only way to survive it.
On a quiet farm in Broken Bow, the only place he ever found peace was a hidden lake beyond the apple trees. It was there he met Derek, his first love, a boy who made him believe in something more. In escape. In freedom. In a life beyond the one chosen for him.
But when their secret is discovered, Dennis is forced into an impossible choice—one that will follow him for the rest of his life.
Sent away to be “fixed,” he learns how to bury what he’s done. How to silence desire. How to become someone else.
Years later, he’s still trying to walk the path he was given.
But when he meets two men who make him question everything he thought he had buried— maybe the right path was never meant to be straight.

Summary
They had come to be a highlight of his day, these missives from his boss. They made him feel special, chosen to see Robby’s revival play out in real time, although it was possible Robby was texting others too, maybe Abbot or Dana or Noelle. It had gotten to the point that Whitaker, never the biggest fan of smartphones—of any flashy tech, really—would scramble to retrieve his device from whatever odd shelf or surface he’d forgotten it on the second he heard it buzz. When it was Robby, his expression would involuntarily screw into an amused little grin, scanning the text a few times before deciding how to respond. If it was anyone else, Santos asking about bills, his mother badgering him to visit, he would drop his phone unceremoniously between the couch cushions and ignore the message for hours.
But Robby hadn’t sent one in days—six days, to be exact.
On his way home from Canada, Robby goes radio silent and his favorite resident spirals. When he comes home two weeks before he was scheduled to and finds Whitaker standing half-naked in his kitchen, things get even more complicated. (Or, everyone in Dennis Whitaker's life is falling apart around him, and he doesn't know how to not help.)
