Prodigal by Avril AshtonMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
An intense, layered M/M romance full of secrets, second chances, and slow-burning tension that simmers just beneath the surface.
Gideon Winters has been presumed dead for fifteen years, but he’s never stopped watching, never stopped waiting. Once a boy on the run from a brutal past, he’s now a calculated man with one mission: reclaim the position that was stolen from him and dismantle the corrupt system he once called home—The Council. When a routine retrieval turns into a rescue, he finds himself entangled with André Tesfaye, a quiet, grounded man who’s as much a mystery to Gideon as he is a balm to his soul.
Their connection is instant but not easy—haunted by trust issues, betrayal, and the violence that follows Gideon like a shadow. Yet in the stillness between storms, a bond begins to form. There’s something beautifully fragile in how André pushes back against Gideon’s walls without trying to fix him. He sees the broken parts but doesn’t flinch.
