Diego is a romance novelist who travels the world and writes stories of men falling in love—but he can’t seem to find the right guy for himself. He’s too hung up on his best friend from college, Thom, who’s not only stuck in a small town with his abusive mother, but uncertain of his sexuality.

The sparks fly when Diego visits Thom, and Thom is awakened to the fact that he might just be into men after all. The two decide to take a vacation to London, and romance is in the air. But as Thom grows more independent and willing to make a life for himself, Diego finds that he has his own demons to fight.

When Diego realizes that he’s on the verge of getting everything he’s ever wanted, he has to make a choice—can he finally commit to the man he’s loved for years?

What is the line that separates man from beast?

The year is 1797, and 24-year-old John Chapman is lost on the American frontier with winter falling fast. Near death, he stumbles upon a cabin, and the owner, a rugged but sexy frontiersman named Daniel McQuay, agrees to let John stay.

John and Daniel quickly find themselves drawn to each other, the sex between them unlike anything John has ever known. But as weeks turn into snowbound months, Daniel begins to change into someone brutish, and the line between man and beast disappears.

With the arrival of spring, John flees, eventually finding refuge in the company of a group of frontier outcasts, including a brash young settler named Palmer. But in the wilds of this savage land, love is not so easily tamed, and John soon finds himself calling upon the raging animal within him to save the man he loves.
