BLURB
Rod Nelson is used to being someone’s good time, and that’s
fine with him. Spending his days at his adult toy store, Rods-N-Ends, he never
knows who he’ll meet. The second Landon Harrison walks in, he has Rod’s full
attention. It seems as if Landon wants him too, so why won't the man jump in
the sack with him already?
Landon never thought he’d return home to the town where memories lurk around every corner. He has to admit, Rod makes the adjustment a lot easier. He keeps Landon laughing. Despite the fierce attraction between them, he’s not willing to risk his newfound friendship to get laid.
Neither man wants something serious, but the more they're together, the harder it is to keep their hands to themselves, until eventually they stop trying.
But flings between friends are never simple, and as they attempt to shift gears, diving into their first relationship, they’re slammed with setbacks. If they want to truly move forward, before they hit the open road together, they’re going to have to let go of a past that could make them crash and burn.

TEASERS
EXCERPT
Damned if Rod’s hand didn’t start to shake. He
couldn’t move, didn’t know what to say, but knew he had to let something pass
his lips. “Why are you doing this?”
The light from the television shone around Landon, and he
shrugged. “I know it’s not the same as the real thing, but I just wanted to do
something nice for you. That’s it.”
He’d done nice things for Rod already, a big one being the
way he’d let Rod drive his bike.
“When’s the last time someone did something nice for you?”
Landon asked.
The answer was easy. “The last time I saw you.”
Landon shook his head. “That doesn’t count. That was
selfish. I want someone to ride with, and I like sharing my love of bikes.
Unless you’re talking about the sex, and then there’s the fact that I came so
hard I saw double.”
But this was just for Rod… He tried to make sense of it,
tried to work through how they’d gotten here. Landon was the one who made sure
Rod knew what this was. It was Landon who didn’t want to take the chance that
Rod would read something into it that wasn’t there and now here he was, doing
things like this for him. The kind of thing no one had taken the time to do for
him before.
“Come on, we’re going to miss the show again.”
When Rod didn’t reply, when he couldn’t reply, Landon
continued, “Just ride it out with me. That’s what I’m doing, riding it out.
We’re shifting gears, that’s all. Not sure where we’re going. Not even sure I
know how to get there, but let’s just try to enjoy the ride.”
And he wanted that. Wanted it so fucking much, that the need
ate him alive. It scared the shit out of him at the same time.
Still, Rod closed the distance between them. When Landon
sat, Rod went to the other end of the couch, lied down, and put his head in
Landon’s lap like he’d done fifty times before.
Landon touched his hair, ran his fingers through it and
neither of them spoke; they just continued sitting there together, watching the
show.
