He helped an innocent man regain his freedom. He never expected to fall in love with him. And he certainly never imagined that uncovering the truth would put both their lives in danger.
After seven years behind bars for a murder he didn't commit, Lucas Vale is finally free. His conviction has been overturned, his name is beginning to be cleared, and the world expects him to be grateful for a second chance. But freedom is far more complicated than he imagined. Haunted by the death of his former lover and the years stolen from him, Lucas must learn how to rebuild a life that no longer feels familiar.
Investigative journalist Theo Mercer helped uncover the evidence that set Lucas free. What began as a determination to expose a devastating miscarriage of justice has become something neither man anticipated. Beneath Lucas's guarded exterior, Theo discovers a man of extraordinary strength, vulnerability, and quiet humor. As their friendship deepens into an undeniable attraction, both must confront the complicated line between gratitude, trust, and genuine love.
But the past refuses to stay buried.
When disturbing messages begin arriving and witnesses connected to Lucas's conviction turn up dead, a terrifying pattern emerges. Someone is recreating details from the confession that sent Lucas to prison, and the evidence seems calculated to make him look guilty all over again.
As Theo and Lucas uncover a web of manipulated testimony, hidden documents, and dangerous secrets, they realize that the people responsible for the original injustice may be willing to kill to protect what they have concealed.
With public suspicion mounting and danger closing in, Lucas faces the possibility of losing everything he has only just regained. Theo must decide how far he is willing to go for the man he loves, while Lucas struggles to trust that love does not have to come with a price.
The Man I Helped Set Free is an emotional MM romantic suspense novel filled with dangerous secrets, unexpected tenderness, betrayal, and the courage to begin again. A gripping story of two men fighting for justice, reclaiming their futures, and discovering that sometimes the greatest freedom is allowing yourself to be loved.
