Just to calm him down. But one thing leads to another and the next thing he knows... Colt's naked and blind! Just what has this kid done to him?

    Next up are handcuffs, hospital visits and a heartfelt apology. Given their rocky start, can our two guys live happily ever after?

      DEDICATION

      This novella would not have been possible without the teachings and guidance of so many people, including those in Sentinel fandom where it saw its first incarnation. Thank you all, especially Valentin.

      More recently, all my writing endeavors are made possible, if not painless, thanks to my awesome brainstorming group, Quinceapple.

      Special thank-you to Bonnie Staring for an exceptional round of copy editing.

      Chapter 1. Vice Capades

      TYLER STEERED HIS SUV to the curb, sending a tsunami of rainwater up and over the sidewalk. Usually a precise driver, tonight he gauged his distance by bouncing against the curb, first forward, then in reverse: bounce, bounce and park.

      Rain sheeted the windshield, tracing eerie patterns across the interior. He twisted the review mirror toward himself, raindrop shadows painting false tears on his cheeks. He drew his lips back in a rictus of a smile.

      Nothing between my teeth, he said, despite being alone in the car. Guess I should go in. Wishing he’d brought an umbrella, he grabbed a baseball cap from the glove compartment, the embroidered emblem reading Mount Forest P.D. Carefully, he reshaped the bill and slapped it over his short, spiky, brown hair.

      Exiting the car, he anchored the cap on his head with one hand, fighting the gusts of bitter wind threatening to snatch it away. He dashed across the road to the bar, asphalt glistening wetly, avoiding the deepest puddles as best he could.

      He paused in the entryway, searching for the friends who’d invited him out tonight, rainwater pooling on the parquet tiles around him. He shook fat droplets from his hat and wiped his feet on the little sisal mat near the door.

      His cell phone shrilled from his jacket pocket, startling him.

      Tyler Cage, he barked, hoping it wasn’t work calling. Again.

      No, no. That’s fine, he said, meaning that it totally wasn’t. Bad weather. Bad driving. I get it. Maybe next week. He disconnected the call with an unsatisfying click, shoving his phone
