SOLVED. Adult SciFi, new book - 2 men - 1 is telepath, other is military, set to be his controller. Low key romance.

I read a review of this book this past week. It is either a RECENT release, or not YET released. It does NOT appear to be a TOR or BAEN title, as I've checked both their sites.

The main characters are 1) a telepath, deemed to be highly dangerous by his people. 2) a soldier, with some sort of capability to control the telepath. They are to be BONDED permanently, which will make the telepath subservient to the other man. They fake the bonding because guy2 is convinced the bonding is evil and doesn't want to do it. They then have to escape when something goes wrong.

Anyone recognize this?

I finally tracked this down. It is Ocean's Echo by Everina Maxwell.
