Community - Paperback

by Victoria Hardy Childermass (Author)

Adam never planned to become the kind of man who needs a chosen family, but the old one is fractured, the firm is toxic, and the people who should be in charge are too busy looking away. When he's pulled back into the orbit of the Mardukes-a loud, strange, deeply loving clan with more faith than sense-he starts seeing what he's been missing all along.

Ellie is part of that new equation, even if neither of them knows how to say it out loud.

She's the one person who sees through him, challenges him, and makes him want more than billable hours and survival. But love gets messy fast when work, religion, family, and power all collide. If Adam wants a future, he'll have to choose between the firm that consumes him and the life that might finally save him.

Community is book 7 in the Marduke Manor series! The Marduke Manor series blends Catholic life, found-family chaos, and the complexities of adult relationships. Moments of intimacy appear, but the focus stays on conscience, consent, and character.
