Spitting Off the Edge of the World - Alternate Cover

Julien Kendrick has everything privilege can buy, yet his soul feels entirely hollow. Trapped in a gilded cage of societal expectations and toxic relationships, he decides to embark on a final, self-destructive mission: a two-week escape before he chooses to end his life. Seeking a companion for his swan song, Julien finds an unexpected match in a stunning, guarded street worker who carries the weight of a horrific past. Romeo has spent his life living by a rigid, bleak code of survival: no intimacy, no attachments, and绝对 no love. For him, Julien was supposed to be nothing more than a ticket out of his cycle of abuse—a temporary payday that would grant him the means to disappear forever. But when the cold, professional barrier between them is shattered by Julien’s genuine, unwavering kindness, Romeo finds his resolve crumbling. What begins as a transactional arrangement quickly spirals into a desperate quest for redemption. As the two-week deadline looms, both men must face the terrifying possibility that they have found the one person capable of saving them. In a race against time and their own damaged histories, Julien and Romeo must decide if they are brave enough to choose a future together.
