Lion's Lair
There are lots of differences between Ryan, the Nebraska Marine, and Clayton, the buttoned-down engineer ... but perhaps more in common than either man suspects. Ryan's rebuilding his life after a tour of duty created major changes, while Clayton, at loose ends after the death of his lover, still has secrets that shape his life.
Can they build their strength--and find common ground--within the lion's lair?
Maybe you've met Joe and Rex before ("Joe the Welder"). Or you'll recall Barry (Bulldog) and Dave (Bubba) ("Landfall"). Now meet Ryan and Clayton. Totally different men, each with their own challenges, and yet each perhaps growing together--maybe. Lots of obstacles to overcome in this unusual story, complete with action/adventure/romance, and occasional sex. Yeah, it's an adult story, with adult language and situations, so forewarned is forearmed. And it's all set with supporting characters and locations you've seen before. Note that you are NOT required to read either "Joe the Welder" or "Landfall" to follow this story--it stands on it's own merits.
THANK YOU for reading/following this story!
