Bittersweet Truth by R.G. Angel

Antoine St. Vincent is a lot of things – a clown, an hedonist, a party boy, the heir of the St.Vincent family fortune.
At least that’s what the world labels him. But he sees himself differently – as a fraud, a coward, a liar hiding who he is in the fear of losing his parents’ money.
But he’s content to pretend what he’s not in order to keep his more than luxurious lifestyle.
That is, until he meets Grayson Clay.
Grayson, the openly gay artist who is not only supremely hot and extremely talented, but who also makes Antoine feel things he didn’t know he could feel. A man who shows him how to be happy, how to love and be loved for who he is rather than what he presents.
Now is the time for Antoine to decide what matters the most: the legacy or his heart? Money or love? The freedom of the truth or the prison of the lie?
Truth is the ultimate price of love… Will Antoine be willing to pay it?

This is Antoine’s novella – set in The Patricians world.
Whilst it can be read as a standalone reading the whole series will help with the other characters which appear in the novella.
