In the Temple of Iro, men worship the gods with their bodies. Split into sects, or shards, depending on which path they follow, each shard has a curate, each curate has a novitiate; Hokonnen is Sint's. Torn from the familiar and chaotic Emerald Shard, Hokonnen finds himself novitiate to Sint of the Gold Shard, where submission is key. Hokonnen cannot understand why he was initially drawn to and accepted by the wrong shard. Could it be that he was deliberately misled? And perhaps there is more to the storms and chaos that seem to call to him than meets the eye. Can Sint keep the chaos from having Hokonnen? And can the tattooed Hokonnen find the peace he needs within the walls of the Gold Shard, and, ultimately, within Sint's arms? Read this Path of Iro novel and find out!

Sunshine and light breezes, the scent of sea-drenched skin, dewed-grass under foot. Cowboy hats, tuxedos, painted on jeans. Blue eyes, grey eyes, green eyes, crinkled at the edges eyes. Snow, rain, wind. Love in the morning. Love in the afternoon. Love in the evening. The sole of a man's foot, a working man's hands, a strong back, the curve of an ass. These are a few of Mike's favorite things. Want to know more? Read Mike's books, most days his characters feel more real to him than he does.
