Forty-seven clients. Three years. Not one has ever come back. Until tonight.
Cole is the guide they call the Steady Hand. Clean-shaven, regulation-short hair, every button aligned. He doesn’t mirror, doesn’t get drawn in, doesn’t let a client’s need become his own. Margaret’s rule, now his: you’re the container, never the contents. Three years, forty-seven men processed and released. Not one complaint. Not one incident. Not one who returned.
The second file on his desk has an intake date from one year ago. A name he doesn’t recognize. A client who already “came through” and chose to come back. Not to any guide. To him.
Eli doesn’t need the standard session. Eli needs the man behind the procedure. And Cole “the best guide in the building” is about to find out what happens when the container cracks.
RE/TURNED is a dark, explicit MM romance told from the guide’s perspective for the first time” featuring a returning client, a professional who breaks his own rules, and the moment the man who facilitates every transformation finally lives one. Book 24 in The Back Room series. The series finale. Standalone. 18+.
Content Note: Explicit MM scenes, guide POV, institutional setting, and the only man in The Back Room who was never supposed to need it. No fade to black.
