Kevin has pined for his friend for a long time, but he fears ruining their working relationship if Erik doesn’t return his feelings.

Ignorance is bliss, they say, and it's true. Until you see the truth with your own eyes. The last place Rafa de Leon ever expected to find himself was back in Havana. Only a crazy man, or a man crazy in love, would ever return to a country that wouldn't hesitate to punish him for treason by locking him up for life. Or worse. Rafa thought that part of his life was over, that he'd never again have to remember who he was and where he came from, or the humble beginnings that made him into the man he was today. But when the love of his life goes missing, there's nothing he won't give to get her back, even if it means trading his soul away to the noisy spirits haunting him since childhood. No longer a man of science and reason, may the gods help anyone foolish enough to come between Rafa and his Amada.
