Promises: Part 3

The men of Duke's Bail Bonds continue on the highway to love. The road isn't always smooth but it's a certain destination and [a:Aiden Snow 14257884 Aiden Snow https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/m_50x66-82093808bca726cb3249a493fbd3bd0f.png], once again, delivers it without a hitch. This turn we have Bradford “Ford” King an ex-Navy Seal, 46 y.o. giant of a man, who's taciturn on his best days, and on the tail end of a losing the battle with an overwhelming attraction to Dana Cadby. Dana is 33 y.o., DBB's resident marksman, and anything but immune to Ford's presence. So what's the problem you ask? I'm happy to say it's not the regular or expected. The blurb kind of gives everything away but I'll try not to be too specific.After saving his brother's life, Ford is back in a civilian life which he only finds tolerable by taking care of his brother and hunting criminals. He has no social life to speak and never did anything that can be confused for a relationship. He finds them too messy. The thorn on his side is how Dana befuddles him by being a consummate professional but having a seemingly chaotic social life. And also that pesky attraction. Meanwhile Dana can't figure out why Ford is so hard on him but desperately wants to impress Ford and not just in the professional arena. Their coming together takes some time, logically so, but once it happens it's a no-nonsense affair. Dana embraces his long dormant bisexuality and Ford, at his age and with his life experience, just can't be bothered by what others might think. The thing I like best about the world that [a:A.E. Via 7354860 A.E. Via https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1392500556p2/7354860.jpg] has created is it's boundless optimism. I say this because these men who work in what we can all agree is a relentlessly macho profession have zero problems with homosexuality. Not a single one. Not about their own same sex attractions or those of their colleagues. I'd love to live in that world. I'm not being sarcastic. Alternatively I'm convinced, have been from Bk.1, that these stories would work perfectly in some kind of shifter universe. These men are consumed by body hair, scent, and the lure of the hunt. Their senses override any kind of logical thought and it never steers them wrong. See! Shifters! Anyway ... this isn't that kind of ‘verse but you can still have a good time with men from DBB particularly in [a:Aiden Snow 14257884 Aiden Snow https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/m_50x66-82093808bca726cb3249a493fbd3bd0f.png]'s delivery.
