Santorno Stories - La série

The Santorno Stories: Book One Warning: This book contains homosexual relations, crude language and violence. Stefan Sanders knows two things: He never wants to be like his father. He's going to die if someone doesn't remove the tumor in his head. Stefan is the son of a notorious and ruthless mobster, which effectively scares off any doctor he'd let anywhere near his brain. Enter pompous, rude Jordan Youngblood, a gifted neurosurgeon who isn't afraid of anyone and loves a good challenge. The doctor is his own biggest fan, and lacks even a passable bedside manner - but if he get's the job done, who is Stefan to complain? Jordan Youngblood knows one thing: He's never going to get close to a patient again. Ever. That rule works well until Damon Santorno walks into his office. Jordan's a genius, and it doesn't take one to figure out that Damon means business. His son is dying of a brain tumor and even with all his power and money, Damon can't save him. But Jordan can. With a not-so-gentle nudge from the older Santorno, Jordan agrees to take on Stefan's case. He expects one more notch on his brilliant scalpel, not a dimpled patient who is completely sweet and impossible to avoid. Things get complicated as Jordan strives to save Stefan's life and his own heart. They say the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Stefan and Jordan find that there really are plenty of shades of gray between black and white, right and wrong.

Just in case it isn't hard enough being a teenager, how about heaping on the hardship by facing the sudden realization that you're gay? Toss in a little danger by virtue of being the grandchild of a notorious mobster and a pinch of venom inherited from a mercilessly cutthroat businesswoman who happens to be your great-aunt and you have a nice bubbling stew of 'what the hell'? Jordan Youngblood and Stefan Santorno can't believe their children are nearly grown and they miss the days when kissing a boo-boo fixed everything. The kids struggle with identity, trust, lust, love -- and they learn the hard way that nothing is ever just black and white. When trouble beats on the door, the Youngblood kids will prove they didn't fall too far from that dangerous family tree.

Enter Paul Greystone. He puts the 'stud' in student, and while Mark's hormones scream 'yes,' his heart cautions 'not again.' Besides, getting through Paul's defenses is like dealing with a raging bull with a suit of armor thrown in for good measure. Well, they DO say, the bigger they are, the harder they fall.
