Love hurts. Love heals. Words are cheap, but trust is earned.

He forms connections with three different women: Allison, a beautiful and empathetic freshman; Jill, an intelligent and driven pre-med student; and Diana, a mysterious older woman.

Healing from the pain of betrayal and past trauma, searching for honesty, and forced to confront his worst fears, Dylan struggles with tough choices when faced with an ultimatum from the woman who loves him.

Healing Betrayal is a character-driven narrative with a male point of view, with emotional depth and explicit romantic content. The novel explores the complexities of relationships, self-discovery, friendship, love, and past trauma.
