Rough Ride

By Laura Baumbach

James Justin's family distanced themselves from him when they learned he was gay. Since then, he's buried himself in his career so 'friends' are really just acquaintances. This holiday season would have been just another lonely time of the year. Except his new lover, Bram Lord, has no intention of letting that happen. Burly powerhouse Bram takes his cautious lover James on a wild ride through both their neighborhood's slippery, snowy slopes and the even trickier winding trail toward love. Hot holiday heat!
