A scarred beast. A strong-minded beauty. Can one thaw the other's cold heart before it's too late?
Thomas Pennington has spent his life trying to make himself worthy. After being ostracized by his own people, he came to a new land, gave himself a new name, and clawed his way to the very top of society, only to be struck down by someone he thought he could trust. Hiding the scars from that ordeal, Thomas isolates himself in the dark until a beautiful, confident boy turns everything on its head.
Hayden Ross is suddenly broke and homeless, but he still owes Thomas for trespassing on his property. When Thomas proposes an unusual arrangement-one that defers Hayden's financial woes-Hayden jumps at it. Thomas wants to punish him, but Hayden is determined to prove he's man enough to take whatever Thomas throws at him.
Thomas clings fervently to his traditions, which won't let him love another man. But the more Hayden surprises and impresses him, the more he finds himself falling.
When a plot against Thomas puts Hayden in danger, will Thomas risk everything to save him?
Genuine Imitation is the third book in the Gentleman Hackers series. It features a mouthy trans boy, a grumpy billionaire determined to put him in his place, bi-romantic awakening, a ransom plot, and an HEA ending. And Hayden isn't the least bit sorry for making Thomas work for it.
