About this ebook
Sam Crowe lives a quiet life. He's a freelance journalist and sometimes fiction writer. His world is turned upside down when love lands on his doorstep—literally, while cursing up a G-rated storm. Son of a fish, indeed. Casey Sanders doesn't know whether it’s good luck or bad when he slips and falls on the icy steps of his apartment building, but the hero who comes to his rescue is worth the discomfort.
Their attraction is instant, but Sam is certain Casey's flirtation and kind words are a result of the pain medication. But Casey is persistent and won't give up until he has what he wants. And what he wants is Sam.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5What a cute little story! Definitely on the sweeter side of romance it features two men just made for each other. Sam is naturally shy, and Casey has suffered some significant personal losses lately. When they meet up, the interest is immediate, as is their realization they want more. The style is humorous and lighthearted, the plot simple and straightforward. Just the right thing if you're looking for a short feel-good story.
Sam is a quiet guy, an author who doesn't have a lot of expectations, He also has a good heart, so when hi new neighbor Casey slips on the ice in front of their apartment building and hurts his ankle, Sam overcomes his shyness and helps. While he is definitely attracted to Casey, he doesn't believe it could be mutual. He has no idea!
Casey has had a tough year, with his boyfriend of ten years cheating on him, then his mother dying. He is ready for a new start, but breaking his ankle as he moves in does not bode well. Except for one thing: Sam comes to his rescue and Casey decides that is not a bad thing. He wants the man, but he'll need all his stubbornness to convince Sam that he is serious.
If you like short, sweet stories with no angst and instant attraction that evolves into more, if you like reading about shy men coming out of their shell, and if some very creative G-rated swearing sounds like fun, you will probably like this short story.

Son of a Fish
SON OF a fish, mother clucker, cripes on a cracker, dadgumit!
Sam wasn’t sure who the voice belonged to, and the only thing that kept the chuckle from passing his lips was the loud crash and strange thumping that preceded the string of G-rated curses coming from around the corner.
He walked a little faster than was probably safe, seeing as the walkway was iced over due to the most recent wave of winter weather that had come through. It wasn’t uncommon for a freak winter storm to send Texas into a deep freeze.
Sam made his way toward the frantic voice. Rounding the corner, he slid to a halt, unsure of what he was seeing exactly. In a tumble of boxes, scattered clothes, shoes, and housewares, the slightly muffled voice continued to curse in true grade-school fashion.
Sam wasn’t sure if he needed to rush to the side of the squirming mass of objects or simply wait for the guy to dig his way out. Hello?
Abruptly, the censored swearing cut off while the hill of clutter wiggled and shuffled. After a few moments, a mop of curly black hair popped out from under what looked to be a high school letterman’s jacket. The man—at least Sam assumed so by what he could hear of the muffled voice beneath the boxes—reached up to sweep the mass of curls out of his eyes.
Yep, definitely male.
Sam’s breath caught when moss green eyes peered at him from beneath the black ringlets still attempting to hide those beautiful eyes.
Umm….
Sam couldn’t think straight. Uh, are you okay? Do you need some help?
The deep green orbs twinkled and a chuckle passed a pair of pink, heart-shaped lips. I must look like a mess right now, yeah?
He huffed. Well, I guess I am a mess. I think I fell. Umm. I’m pretty sure I slipped on some ice and fell.
Sam walked slowly toward the shifting mountain of… stuff, attempting to avoid the worst of the ice patches on the walkways around the building. After drawing near, Sam knelt at the guy’s head.
Are you hurt? Is there anything I can help you with?
The guy
