Summary
An Experiment in Devotion follows a detective assigned to observe a man who does not believe in morals — only results.
Dr. Zackary Hayden Brooks is brilliant, unsettling, and entirely too familiar.Reunited under false pretences, the detective knows exactly who Zack is… and exactly why he should stay away. But knowing has never been the same as resisting. As case files pile up and boundaries dissolve, the line between investigator and subject begins to rot from the inside out.
Every glance feels deliberate.
Every touch feels like evidence.Told through reports, documents, and confessions never meant to be written, An Experiment in Devotion is a story about obsession disguised as love, surveillance mistaken for intimacy, and the quiet, devastating choice to stay when leaving would be safer.
Some experiments are never meant to succeed.
Some are never meant to end. -

Summary
When Alonzo’s overbearing mother, decides to send him to stay at her high school best friend's house for the summer, he unexpectedly encounters Kyan, the son of her close friend, an older, confident boy known for his aloof attitude. Kyan immediately dislikes Alonzo, perceiving him as intrusive and different, which sparks a complex and confusing mix of feelings in him. His mother had warned him beforehand about boys like Alonzo — specifically, homosexuals — adding a layer of prejudice to his initial reaction. As the days pass, Kyan finds himself entangled in a turbulent internal struggle, feeling a burning hatred that slowly intensifies, yet occasionally, this intense emotion transforms into an unexpected tenderness or even affection.
