Percy Galvin hasn't looked his father in the eye since he was fifteen.
Not since two disgruntled Galvin Enterprises employees broke into their Belgravia home, put a gun to each of his sons' heads, and made his father choose which twin would live. His father chose Jasper.
So they shot Jasper, and left Percy breathing.
This, as it turns out, was exactly the sort of formative experience a deaf billionaire heir needs to grow into a raging, but functional, alcoholic.
Now Percy runs the Galvin family's venture capital arm with his text-to-speech app, generous deployments of his raised middle finger, and a piercing stare that makes boardrooms go very, very still.
Connor Evans owns a string of London pawnshops that don't always ask where things came from. He fixes problems for people who can't go to the police, files his taxes like a man with nothing to hide, and only lies to His Majesty's Revenue and Customs about one thing: his brother Patrick, and what Patrick's problems are worth once they've passed through the Evanses network on fresh plates, with a clean logbook and a VIN that never belonged to them.
Then a carjacked Bentley turns up in Patrick's lock-up with Percy's blood still on the driver's seat. The men who stole it have accidentally delivered themselves, and the evidence, to the Evanses. Now Connor has to clean up his brother's mess before the Galvins decide someone needs to pay for what happened to their son.
Percy was the twin nobody chose. Connor Evans is about to.Please Note: The Unchosen contains on-page depictions of violence (including murder), explicit sexual content, organised crime, grief, and the psychological aftermath of a childhood trauma involving gun violence and the death of a sibling. The protagonists are not redeemed by the end of this book and are not seeking redemption. If you're looking for a story where love makes someone better, this isn't it. But if you're looking for one where the characters love obsessively and beyond all reason, pull up a chair. Please take care of yourself and give this a pass if any of the above hits close to home.
Set in the world of Golden Boys, the Gray Areas series can be read as a standalone. Readers who've met Connor in Foreign Affairs (Golden Boys, Book 2) will find a familiar face, and a Happily Ever After for Connor.
