Novitiate

No*vi*ti*ate (no-vish'e-it,-at') n. The period of being a novice. Ten stories, ten waypoints, ten steps along a path. The stories collected in Novitiate represent the first leg of C.C. Williams' journey from a sometime storyteller to a published writer. From the sweet, simple beginnings portrayed in "Midnight"; to a rough and rocky courtship in "Busting the Greenhorn," an AllRomanceEbooks(tm) Category Best Seller; to the dark and edgy psychology of "The Prisoner," a Best Gay Romance selection for 2012, C.C. Williams portrays men facing their most difficult challenges--their own hearts--when confronted by something deeper, more permanent than what they had initially sought.
