Dief’s summer shedding allows Ray to perform another good deed for his Mountie.

‘Fear’ by Catherine

"Beautiful eyes." Benny whispered. Ray swallowed thickly as Benny leaned forward for a hard, fast kiss. Ray never closed his eyes, keeping them open, absorbing everything about his lover, the blue of his eyes, the scar at the corner of his mouth. He licked at it, jumping when he felt Fraser’s hand on his bare backside

Truth’ by Gillian Middleton

It takes gentleness and care for Fraser to reach Ray

‘It Could Happen’ by Gloria Lancaster

Favor swallowed hard. Fool kid. For wantin’ me. The man who rode with him, argued with him, fought beside him, knew him as no woman ever had. As no woman probably could. And who wanted him as he was.
