In the quaint, sleepy college town of Huntsville, history has an eerie way of repeating itself generation after generation ... When in-the-closet college student Matthew Rhodes arrives at the old building in the town's historical district, little does he realize his life is about to take a sudden and dramatic turn. He is certainly prepared to earn extra income by posing nude for erotica artist Skylar Novak, and definitely anxious to discover if the sexy and reclusive man has an interest in him other than one of an artistic nature. But things get complicated when Matthew meets a handsome stranger lurking outside the artist's door. A stranger who has a sudden and compelling effect on him before disappearing in the blink of an eye. Matthew and Skylar quickly discover they share both an uncontrollable and supernatural bond with each other, leading to a red-hot and steamy affair, but they also realize they are mysteriously linked to the stranger. Is he even a man at all, or could he be an entity from another plane of existence with lecherous designs of his own? And could his connection to Matthew and Skylar have historical significance, involving an elaborate and desperate plan that has miserably failed every generation for centuries? Before the situation can drive him insane, Matthew is determined to open his mind to new possibilities and learn the whole truth. But in doing so, will his burgeoning love and unquenchable sexual appetite for Skylar, the man of his dreams, suffer in the process? Or will his actions secure their love for eternity?

Olga smiled at him. “Through your extremely talented hands he has been sending messages, no? First, he needed to prepare you, to condition you, to keep an eye out for Matthew’s arrival, to know him when you spotted him in the flesh. I’m assuming the birthmark once again came into play. Then, after that scheme seemed destined for success, he started sending you more visions to paint, this time with him included. It’s his way of preparing both you and Matthew for what he has in mind.”


Sky visibly shivered, running his shaky hands over his exposed forearms. “How did you know all of this?”


“Tell him, Matthew,” she directed, giving my shoulder a playful whack.


“The vibrations provided her with the information,” I dutifully explained.
