My Beautiful Young Prince

My Beautiful Young Prince is a tender, honest coming-of-age story about faith, desire, and the courage to become yourself - set against the beauty and silence of a Kentucky abbey.When twenty-year-old Justin stands at the altar of the Abbey of the Inner Way to take his first vows as a monk, he believes he has finally found the life he was meant to live. Then Lorenzo Caruso returns from two years abroad - brilliant, warm, and devastatingly beautiful - and everything Justin thought he understood about himself begins to quietly unravel.What follows is a slow-burn love story told with intimacy and grace, set against the rhythms of monastic life - the hours of prayer, the print shop, the beer hall on Saturday nights. It is a story about what we carry when we leave the places that shaped us, and what we discover when we finally stop running from ourselves.Tender. Honest. Unforgettable.
