About this ebook
Now that Curt Knutzen’s family has found their footing with his sexuality, he’s finally coming home for Christmas. He almost doesn’t make it, though, placing his plans—and his life—in real danger until Oscar Nylund bails his car out of a snowdrift. Oscar is in the same straits Curt was three years ago, but with Curt’s open heart—and his family’s acceptance of him and Oscar—they may be able to rescue each other for longer than just the holidays.

Winter Rescue
Mom? Ma!
Fuck!
Curt Knutzen tossed his cell onto the seat next to him and squinted out his windshield. He frantically swiped his gloved hand through the fog building up on the inside of the window, but it returned faster than he could rub it off. He checked the defroster settings on his rental, trying to find a cure for his poor visibility. Beyond the windshield, large heavy snowflakes alternated between drifting down and racing by sideways.
Shit! Three years. Haven’t been home in three years, and this shit happens.
The back of the car suddenly lurched to the right—stopping Curt’s breath—but he quickly compensated and straightened the car out. As his heart returned to a more normal beat, he tried to relax his grip on the wheel. He rolled and stretched his neck, trying to ease the tension building up in his shoulders. A blast of wind slammed into the car, and he gasped.
His hand was shaking as he turned up the radio: "It’s negative nineteen degrees. Plows are out in force, folks, so it’s best to do as the governor said and stay off the roads. The storm’s expected to be over before morning, then we can all start digging out. You know the drill."
Fucking Minnesota, Curt thought. Three years ago he moved away to sunnier climes. No matter how breathtaking the state was during its more mild seasons, winter just put it in the toilet as far as he was concerned. With his family so unnerved by his coming out, relocating seemed like a good idea at the time. His younger sister, Arianna, had been fine with it—and probably had always suspected—but the rest of the family had come unglued, his father shouting, his mother crying and shouting, his brothers staring wide-eyed as if they were looking at some creature from outer space instead of their baby brother.
So he headed off to San Diego, escaping the snow and family drama but finding plenty of sunshine, hard tanned bodies, and his IT manager position at Spright, Middlesex, and Blithe, a monolith of a law firm in the state. Curt shivered. He hadn’t counted on how badly he would miss the folks, his siblings, their big family dinners, the laughter—though there hadn’t been much laughter after his announcement. He carefully slowed the car and leaned forward over the wheel to try to read a highway sign, then sighed. Just another hour or so, and I’ll be warm. I’ll be home.
A mound of snow-covered something suddenly loomed, filling his field of vision—tiny as it was—and Curt slammed on his brakes, but the car didn’t stop. He hit whatever it was, and the car bounced off, sliding backward, off the road, and coming to rest at an odd angle, headlights pointed at the sky.
For several heart-pounding moments, Curt sat very still, watching in horror as the headlights gradually grew dim from the accumulating snow. The interior was dark except for his dashboard display, but Curt unbuckled his belt and reached for the glove box, fumbling it open. A state
