    About this ebook

    Troy and Dmitri have worked everything out - well, almost everything. Except for the part where Troy's family doesn't know Dmitri exists. Coming out to his family sounds scarier than going to war. And Troy would know.

    Troy's been out of the Army for almost a year, and except for a few short weeks, hasn't been back to West Virginia at all.

    Now Christmas is coming, and his mother can't be put off any longer, not unless Troy wants to break her heart.

    But Troy's biggest fear is that going home with a boyfriend and service dog in tow will break his Momma's heart just as much.

    Author

    A. E. Wasp

    After time spent raising children, earning several college degrees, focusing on professional and academic writing, and traveling the world with the U.S. State Department, she is returning to her first love writing. She writes romance because it is the people we love and who love us that give our lives meaning. She writes erotica because sex is one of the many ways we as humans connect to each other. She writes fantasy and paranormal fiction because inviting myth and fantasy into our worlds allows us to experience life more fully. She invites readers into her characters’ lives at a time when they are their most vulnerable, their most human. We connect with these characters and share their hopes and fears because they are ours, too. Born on Long Island, NY, Amy has lived in Los Angeles, London, and Bangkok. She currently in Fort Collins, Colorado, where she hopes to stay.
