When his friend asks him to attend a dinner with him one Saturday night, he discovers much more about his good friend, who is also the veterinarian to his many animals, than he had already known. Dr. Holing has a secret which Ethan could not have imagined in even his wildest of dreams. Ethan’s Saturday night quickly becomes an adventure, an adventure which will change his life forever.

Excerpt:

It was still dark outside when Ethan drove his trusty old pickup truck into the lot of the College of Veterinary Medicine Clinic on the north end of the beautiful campus. “Just a few more minutes, Princess, and you’ll be all better.” Ethan loved his Sheltie puppy. She and her brother, Hawker, were the loves of his life on the farm that he owned just a few miles north of the city. Ethan was a wheat farmer, and the land was to him what Tara was to Scarlett O’Hara in Gone with the Wind. It was his strength.

Bryce looked directly into Ethan’s eyes, and said in a whisper, “Kiss me.” Ethan leaned down and gently placed his lips on Bryce’s. Bryce put his arms around Ethan, pulling him to him. “Mm,” Ethan sighed, and put his hands on Bryce’s face and kissed him passionately. They didn’t need air. All they needed at this moment was each other. Bryce held Ethan to him, and Ethan devoured him. He pressed his chest to Bryce’s and kissed him hard, with a passion that surprised him. Bryce tried to lick his lips, but Ethan caught his tongue and pulled it into his mouth. He held it inside his mouth, never allowing his lips to leave those of his lover. He slid a hand underneath him and onto Bryce’s chest. He wanted Bryce to call out his name. He had wanted him for a long time, but the passion he was feeling now was stronger than he had ever known.
