My book is currently free on Amazon through KDP Select.
We’ve been lied to about masculinity. Not by accident. By design. My novel Pride asks a simple question: What do men actually have to be proud of? When everything is stripped away—status, control, identity—what’s left? Set against the raw, unforgiving presence of a pride of lions, this story challenges the idea that strength means dominance… and asks whether vulnerability might be the most dangerous thing of all. This isn’t a comfortable read. But it might be an important one. 👉 If that idea interests you, I’d love to hear your thoughts.
