Silent Knight
Paul Stanton thought he had it all, a great job, a beautiful condo and a
stable relationship with his boss, but when his lover dumps him for another
man, Paul is forced to rethink his life. Rather than spend the holidays alone
in San Francisco he visits his childhood home in rural Pennsylvania. But only a
few days with his family is enough to convince Paul that you can’t go home
again.
Paul leaves for the airport in the midst of a snowstorm. Stranded in the
woods, a chance meeting with a hunter is his only option for survival. Paul
knows the type, a backwoods bigot just like the men he grew up with, but what
choice does he have? A few days with the hunter convinces Paul there’s more to
Andy Reynolds than meets the eye. But is it enough to bind two men who have
nothing in common except their sex?
Sleepless
Knight
Andy and Paul are totally committed to each other, but when the two-year
itch infects their relationship, Paul becomes distant and refuses to talk about
it. Andy arranges a much needed vacation, but on the way home they pick up a
hitchhiker who’s willing to trade sex for a roof over his head. Andy will do
anything to make Paul happy, even if it means bringing another man into their
bed. But is a threesome really the answer? Or will it drive them further apart?
Excerpt:
Andy studied
his houseguest. Under different circumstances, Paul’s features would be
extremely appealing, but right now, his high cheekbones were an unhealthy shade
of pale, and his sensual lips were blue. He hoped Paul would accept his help.
“Okay, let’s get you into bed.”
“I usually
get dinner first,” Paul mumbled.
Paul’s
attempt at humor was a good sign. Andy chuckled. “I’ll give you something to
nibble on later, city boy.”
Andy helped
his unexpected guest to the sleeping alcove. It was only across the room, but
Paul leaned heavily on Andy, and by the time he sat on the bed, sweat beaded on
Paul’s forehead. The man was obviously exhausted, but he tried to push Andy
away when he attempted to undress Paul.
“Come on,
city boy. You need to warm up.”
“I’m good.”
Paul’s sentence ended with a shiver.
“You’re not
good. You’re hypothermic and maybe frostbitten. Let me take your clothes off,
and maybe we’ll save a few body parts.”
Andy’s harsh
words must have gotten through to Paul. He stopped protesting and allowed Andy
to undress him. When only Paul’s boxers remained, Andy surveyed his body with a
clinical eye. There were no disturbing signs of frostbite. He just needed to
rest and warm up. Paul might be cold, but he was also incredibly hot. Andy
couldn’t help checking out his houseguest’s perfect golden tan. Obviously, the
man was from a warmer locale. And Paul’s lean, muscular body, sprinkled with
light brown hair, shouted gym rat. When Paul lay down on his back, Andy was
surprised to see an erection escaping Paul’s boxers. He reached for the waistband
to pull the shorts off.
Paul rose on
his elbows and swore under his breath. “See anything you like?”
