Gabriel's Inferno

Professor Gabriel Emerson is a man of stark contrasts: a brilliant and respected Dante specialist at the University of Toronto by day, and a man who indulges in a life of uninhibited pleasure by night. He is secretly tortured by a dark past, convinced he is beyond the hope of redemption. But his carefully controlled world is threatened when Julia Mitchell, a sweet and intelligent graduate student, enrolls in his seminar. Gabriel finds himself inexplicably drawn to her, stirred by a mysterious connection and a memory he cannot quite place.

Their attraction ignites a forbidden romance that jeopardizes Gabriel's career and sends them both on a passionate journey where their pasts and present collide. While Gabriel sees Julia's unconditional love as his only path to salvation, Julia struggles with her own self-worth and a history she must overcome. Unbeknownst to Gabriel, Julia holds the key to a shared moment from their past that he has long forgotten. This is an exploration of seduction, forgiveness, and one man's escape from his own personal hell as he tries to earn the impossible: love.
