When Cord finally settled in beside him, pulling Sully carefully into his arms, Sully snuggled close to him. Their legs twined as he listened to Cord’s heartbeat and Cord rubbed circles on Sully’s back.
“Are you okay?” Cord asked him. “That was a little rough.”
Sully chuckled. “I’m good. You know I don’t mind when you’re that intense once in a while. I think we needed it after we unloaded all the crap we’ve been carrying around.”
Cord brushed the hair off Sully’s brow. “Probably.”
“Besides, you never do anything that would ultimately hurt me, and I trust you. And I always end up in your arms, feeling like a pile of mush.” Cord tensed at Sully’s words so Sully opened his eyes and tilted his head to look into Cord’s face. “That’s a good thing.”
“I love you, baby. I don’t ever want to be apart from you again. That one, fucking week when I stayed in Daly while you came here was hell. Never again.”
“Do you think they’ll be too angry with us?” he asked.
“No,” Cord replied, their years together giving him the ability to understand Sully’s segue ways. “Everyone in Daly will get it. Moon and Pete realize I can’t be without you and they know responsibility to family. And Robert would like to have what we have. No one can fault us. Besides, you lived there long enough to know not everyone stays forever. Sometimes, you find what you need then take it wherever life leads you.”
And sometimes it led the way to love. “And we’ll visit.”
“Of course! Pete and Moon’s wedding is coming. We’re best men, don’t forget.”
“How could I? I have the best man in my arms every day.”
Smiling, Sully pushed Cord onto is back, pressing their mouths together. He explored his man, tasting and licking until they were both groaning with the desire they couldn’t possibly fulfill yet. That didn’t stop the intimacy building between them as they indulged the need to caress each other into a near-mindless fervor. It would keep them in bed until responsibility forced them back to the realities of the life they were embarking on here. Whatever came, Sully knew Cord would stand beside him, his strength and his partner.
Daly truly had led him to what he’d needed. His home. Not his old Kentucky home, but his place with the one man who filled him—and fulfilled him—heart, body and soul.

They humor her and let her think she’s a goddess... as long as she provides homemade chocolate chip cookies on a regular basis. Brynn conducts workshops at writers’ conferences around the country as she enjoys mentoring and meeting new people.

Winter Abandon
by Brynn Paulin
Eight years ago, the worst thing possible happened to Jedikiah Stoltzfus. He fell in love with his best friend—forbidden love that led to the worst torture an Amish could endure: shunning. Given the choice to forsake his love or leave, Jed chose to make his way in the “English” world, sure his lover would do the same.
Eight years ago, Yoseph Schrock made a terrible mistake. Believing Jed would claim to forsake him then find a way for their love to go on, he bent to the elder’s demands, willing to temporarily pretend repentance. Too late, he discovered he and Jed could never be together. Jed’s shunning would separate them permanently.
Neither man has forgotten the love they lost. When a twist of fate brings them together again, will they make the right decisions or will they find themselves separated once more, this time forever?
