    Summary

    Fall, 1986. McGill University.
    James Wilson arrives at McGill with a racket, a reputation he hasn’t earned yet, and a lifetime of pressure to stay perfect. Gregory House is a disgraced genius with nothing to lose and no patience for charm, denial, or boys who think they can coast. When Wilson’s place on the tennis team depends on passing a class he’s unprepared for, he’s pushed into tutoring sessions with the one man who won’t let him lie — especially to himself.

    What begins as academic survival turns into something far more complicated. Boundaries blur. Control slips. Desire takes root.

    A story about power, cruelty, intimacy, and the fault lines that crack open when pretending stops working.
