Rough Cut

By Kendall Morgan

Discover a passionate journey where stereotypes are shattered and love knows no boundaries.
Chris Hodak, a former college football defensive lineman, never expected to find himself in the depths of an unspoken desire. Haunted by a fumbling make-out session with his hunky teammate Rohan Moore, Chris always believed that big, burly football players couldn't be gay. Now, two decades later, Chris, in his forties, comes face to face with Rohan once again. But this time, Rohan is an out and proud big, gay hairy bear, owning a barber shop exclusively for bears. Though still as breathtaking as ever, Rohan has no interest in Chris due to his aversion to closeted men. Yet, as Chris settles into Rohan's chair for a shave and a haircut, the flame of their connection reignites.
To win back Rohan's heart, Chris must summon the courage and resilience that surpasses any challenge he faced on the football field.
Rough Cut is a captivating tale that launches the Bearland Tales series, each book capable of standing alone. Prepare for a contemporary interracial erotic gay romance, rich in raw passion and explicit encounters, exclusively tailored for adult readers.

Chapter 1

Chris Hodak was in a good mood. He had fun dining with his younger brother, Dave, and his new wife that evening in their new apartment in one of Chicago’s grittier but increasingly hip neighborhoods. Chris had told his sister-in-law several anecdotes from when they were kids, much to Dave’s chagrin. After leaving them, he drove not to the expressway that would take him back to the suburb where he lived but to another, gayer, neighborhood to get a drink at a bar.

As he stepped out of his car, he delighted in what a fine late spring evening it was. He marveled at the number of people out and about as dusk moved in. At this time of day in the suburb he called home, the only people he saw outside were those who were walking their dogs or who had listened to their doctor’s advice that walking was good for their health. And the men! Damn, there were so many of them here! And there were so many types of men, too many to choose from. He paid for parking and started walking. It might be enough for him just to walk around and take in the sight of all these men. He smiled as he remembered that song, the one about it raining men. He hummed it tunelessly as he strolled.

Chris noticed that he was getting quite a few glances. His twenties, when he could take his beautiful body for granted, were behind him, but he had been looking good lately. He was taking better care of himself, for one thing. He’d grown a neatly trimmed beard and mustache that looked good on him. And even now that he was nearing 42, he knew he was impressive to look at. He was actually fitter now than he was when he had played football in high school and college. He still had a gut, but he looked as imposing as he had when he was a defensive lineman. He was big at 6 feet, 7 inches tall and 275 pounds. He had floppy light brown hair beginning to get streaked with gray. His
