Daring a snowstorm might not be the smartest thing Aiden Evans has ever done, but he can’t stand being in his flat a moment longer. With only three days to Christmas, he doesn’t want to be alone. He wants a place to belong, wants people around him who won’t look down on him. He might not find that at his mother’s place, but it’s better than being alone in the city. If he can make it there, that is. Tristan Gardner is looking forward to a quiet night in front of the TV, but instead, he has to save an idiot in designer clothes from freezing to death in his forest. Tristan tries not to notice the man’s good looks, just like he has tried not to notice any man’s good looks for the last seven years. He knows where relationships go and is far better off living alone, with his dog, in his cabin. Aiden is driving Tristan mad with his bratty comments and irresponsible ways, and Aiden is going crazy from Tristan’s judgmental attitude. Luckily, in a few days, the weather will clear up, and the two men won’t have to be together any longer. But will a few steamy nights with the grumpy lumberjack change Aiden’s mind about wanting to leave? And will Tristan still want to go back to his peaceful, predictable life without fear of getting his heart broken? Contains the stories “Once in a Snowstorm,” “The Empty Egg,” “Happy Endings,” and “Just Words.”

Aiden and Tristan

He soon forgot it as the blunt head of Tristan&rsquo;s cock nudged his hole. Shit. He tried not to go rigid, but this was going to burn.


&ldquo;When will you ever say stop?&rdquo;


&ldquo;What?&rdquo; Aiden let out the breath he&rsquo;d been holding.


&ldquo;Ever since I met you, you&rsquo;ve been telling me what to do, how to do it, except when we get to this point.&rdquo; Tristan backed up a little, not enough for there to be any space between them, but so he wasn&rsquo;t about to push into Aiden.


Aiden tried to think. What did Tristan want him to say, to do? Had he done something wrong?


Wet fingers found his hole again. Two entered him this time, and Aiden hissed.


&ldquo;Sorry, spit isn&rsquo;t the best lube.&rdquo;


&ldquo;Doesn&rsquo;t matter.&rdquo; Aiden panted and forced his muscles to go pliant.
