A Fighting Man Army Ranger Slater Cassidy has a very special - very sexy - target in his sights. Meeting gorgeous, smart, uber-snarky Casper Kennedy was the highlight of Slater's last trip home to New York. The soldier in him carefully plans his conquest. Unfortunately, Casper's wearing some seriously strong armor and Slater's charm offensives bounce right off. Casper's refusal to fall for him is puzzling - not to mention incredibly annoying. When Slater gets leave again after grueling back-to-back tours in Afghanistan, all he wants is another shot at wooing Casper. He jumps right into the battle for the other man's heart, but Casper does not intend to entertain the troops. A heartbreaking revelation changes the rules of romantic warfare, and Slater suddenly realizes he doesn't just want Casper. He wants to capture his heart, too. Casper Kennedy is fighting a losing battle. A certain outrageously demonstrative Army Ranger has been a thorn in his side since his last trip home - and the main character in his steamiest dreams. Now he's back. He launches an all-out sensual assault and no matter how hard Casper pushes Slater away, the man somehow manages to inch closer. So close, in fact, that Casper's once-impenetrable defenses are in danger of collapsing. Should he throw up the white flag and take a chance at love? Or start firing back and keep his heart protected? When the handsome Ranger shows his true colors, Casper just might have to surrender the fight. A Working Man Matthew Hawke's professional life is soaring as high the powerful bird of prey whose image is inked on his back. He's at the top of his game as the owner of an advertising agency that is scooping up prime accounts like a mighty hawk wrapping its talons around an unfortunate ground rodent. Yes, work is good. Too bad his love life has more in common with the dying rodent than the triumphant hawk. When the thought of a sexy man trumps actually being with a sexy woman, Matthew thinks it might be time for a change. And there IS a gorgeous man at the gym he's noticed. Drakon Mavros is working his shapely ass off to make ends meet. His administrative assistant job at a messenger service is steady, but the money he gets from his more creative job pays most of the bills. An ex-boyfriend took his confidence, his trust and his self-esteem and Drakon is afraid to take another chance at love. When an adorably goofy man at his gym actually hurts himself trying to flirt with him, Drakon can't resist falling under Matt's spell. He makes Drakon feel good about himself again and praises his artistic talent - neither of which his ex ever did. As the men begin to fall for one another, it appears nothing can go wrong - they seem to be soul mates. Secrets and lies can crack even the firmest foundation, though. It takes a true master to shore it up so that it never crumbles. Is love the mortar that can restore trust and faith and bind men forever? Only time will tell. Can Drakon and Matt take that chance?
