Calvin Hamilton reluctantly returns to his home town of Parrish Creek, Texas, to sell his parents' house.

Brock bares a passing resemblance to Gary Cooper, especially as he often wears western clothing. Calvin has always had a weakness for cowboys.<br><br>Time has reversed the two men's fortunes. In high school Brock was the big man on campus, his popularity allowing him to hide his true nature. Calvin was a nerd, bullied by most of the jocks for being perceived as gay. Now Calvin is a successful New York advertising executive, and Brock is a divorced father with a teenage son who faces financial ruin, unable to pay his late father's hospital bills.<br><br>Can Calvin put past bitterness behind him and help the cowboy with whom he is rapidly falling in love? Will the deeply closeted Brock be able to admit he has feelings for Calvin? Or will pride, fear, distance, and the past prevent them from building a future together?

Calvin's Cowboy

Brock took a few seconds to regard his lover—bent legs held in the air,blissful dazed expression on his face.Brock just had to kiss those lips.


“Sorry,darlin’,”Brock said,once he’d pulled back.


Calvin blinked at him.“You never need to apologize for kissing me.”


For that Calvin got another kiss.Then Brock went in search of protection and lube.


“Brock?”Calvin asked when Brock had found what he was looking for.


“Yeah,darlin’?”Maybe‘My knight’didn’t quite fit all occasions.


Brock was confused.“I often wear it.”


“No,I mean,now.While you make love to me.”


Brock felt his eyebrows rise.“Why?”He immediately realized that was a dumb question.“Uh,yeah,sure.”


“And one of your western belts,too.”


Calvin snickered.“Don’t need pants.Just need you,your hat and your belt.”


Brock shrugged.“My kinky knight.”Huh,maybe the name has its uses after all.
