Tutto cambia quando incontra Elias Bryne, giovane ragazzo tormentato, che irrompe nella sua vita con prepotenza e lo constringe ad affontare il desiderio, inspiegabile, di unire le loro solitudini. Elias, di Erin E. Keller, è un romanzo erotico gay.

Along the Intracoastal waterways of North Florida, Daniel and Aubrey navigated adolescence with the electric intensity that radiates from young people defined by otherness: Aubrey, a self-identified "Southern cracker", and Daniel, the mixed-race son of Jamaican immigrants. When the news of Aubrey's death reaches Daniel in New York, years after they'd lost contact, he is left to grapple with the legacy of his precious and imperfect love for her.
