Window to the Soul of a Man

by H.M. Trey

The things men don't talk about...the matters of the heart. Being able to truly see into the soul of a man and understand the deep-rooted emotions that he hides from the rest of the world can be an impossible feat to accomplish. It takes a very special eye to see through the shadowed window to a man's soul. This is no different as it pertained to Trevor Alexander. He enjoys the life of a smooth talking bachelor who could come and go as he pleases...or so he thinks. Circumstances, and an unfortunate life-changing experience in his past, made him the man that he is today. Once a one-woman man until the travesty of a relationship, he vowed never to be that gullible again for his soul had been forever changed. He tucked away the hurtful skeletons of his past into a dark, deep corner and was hell bent on keeping them from escaping out of the locked closet in his heart. The window to Trevor's soul was shut off to the world, never to be opened again; at least that was the game plan. That is, until a woman with a very unique name - Deisyre Moore - came along, breathing life back into his soul. Her ability to see beyond his pain and show him how to love again starts a process that allows Trevor to open up his emotional window again; something that he never thought possible or saw coming. What he also didn't see coming was the ghost from his past clawing for an opportunity to enter his world again to reopen old wounds. Trish Parker, Trevor's first true love and the mother of his deceased son, reappears and brings a cloud of trouble back over Trevor's life; which leads to potential deadly situations that Trevor is left to encounter. Her reemergence brings chaos into Trevor's life, forcing him to face the pain that he buried away with his son...the very pain that led Trevor to create a character for himself to live by which is the polar opposite of who he was prior to a life-altering tragedy. As Trevor's life gets flipped upside down, he has to make a decision to re-enter his past and make amends on what he should have done in the first place. One woman causes a crack, the other threatens to shatter it...will Trevor's decision to reopen the window to his soul and face his past be the ultimate death of him?

Black Love

It was lively to see a relationship through a black mans eyes, a professional and non-professional. Thoroughly enjoyed the book. Food for thought. Men hurt too.

Bravo! Being widowed at a young age left to bring up two sons, I found this read to be extremely informative and enlightening in revealing the nature of the male species. H.M. Trey bared his intimate soul with his readers. Though this was a story, you know it was also to some degree the truth of his nature. I thank him for sharing such intrinsic truths of how men process life's experiences.

When I first started reading the book, I was excited to learn more about Trevor, the main character in the story, he was smitten by a woman like him battling a past that anchored them to a painful and emotional captivity to live a life half dead. But they found each other and began to resurrect to a life where love proved to be more real than either ever imagined. The writing style is like watching a movie. I kept pushing the buttons on my remote to see what's behind the black screen that me waiting to hear from Trey yet again in the near future. Thanks for sharing!

It's a very good read and the book is filled with suspense and surprises. You have passion and compassion, determination and struggle, emotional ups and downs and mental battles, defeat that turns into victory, and a rediscovery of self all rolled into one story that provides you with real life, a hint of eroticism, and most importantly real love.
