Outside In Sean Patrick Brennan

Inside the walls of a modern-day Roman Catholic monastery, 21-year-old Cody Johnson is doing his best to fit in, even though something within him is trying desperately to come out. Tackling a variety of issues, from spirituality and depression to temptation and young love, Outside In is a nonstop adventure of monastic proportions. Never before has the struggle between sacred vows and secret desires of the flesh been so personally felt, or so viscerally explored. Cody is a young monk who hopes to avoid any trouble with his Novice Master, but while lying in bed one night, he hears a sound he never in a million years expected inside a monastery. Two other monks have just come back from a walk, and the kiss young Cody overhears from his bedroom awakens something deep inside him, a part of him he thought he had vowed away forever.
