For months, office worker Kevin Lawrence has carried a torch for Joey Goldman, head driver at the haulage company where they both work. One rainy night, Kevin slips and falls on a patch of motor oil and Joey is there to catch him. Despite being damaged both emotionally and physically from previous relationships, Kevin is helplessly drawn to the dominant trucker. Joey’s muscles and rugged good looks means he never has trouble finding men to take to bed. But no man has managed to get under his skin ... until Kevin. Life for Joey soon becomes complicated. He isn’t out to his family, but feels an increasing need to be Kevin’s Sir -- to love, protect and guide his submissive lover. Can Joey and Kevin make the journey together, or will outside forces and internal fears cause them to travel in opposite directions?

Trucker and Pup

??There is no way my grandson is riding on that death-trap of yours.?? Why did his mother always choose to stick her oar in at the wrong time? 


Carole sighed. ??He??ll just have to come home with me, then. Come on, let??s go.?? 


??Ma, can you take our Simon home in your car later???


??I??ve got to be going, I??ve left Mrs Slivovitz looking after your dad, and I??ve been gone longer than I said I would.??


??Please, Uncle Joey, it??d be great riding on your bike.??


??I wish you could, champ, but I don??t have a helmet that??d fit you, and your grandma??s right, it wouldn??t really be safe anyway.??


Joey thought Simon would burst into tears. 


??Well, I suppose I can come back to get you once I??ve put your granddad to bed. But it??ll mean you having to stay here for a few hours,?? she told her grandson, whose expression rapidly brightened.


??That??s okay, Uncle Joey will stay with me, won??t you Uncle Joey???
